It sucks because there aren't enough subtle references to the Kaballah. You need masonic and kaballahesque kitsch for things to fly these days. Maybe some Scientology also, and cigarettes would also totally help.

Everything. Also, if a visitor has Javascript disabled, like I do, you're SOL.

Everything?REally?  :slap

I see all.

Yes, everything. The premise, the code, the colors, the hideous font. Also? That you came here specifically to ask us our opinion on your site. We want the funny. We want new members who will contribute to the funny. You're not.

Don't forget I-Ching, and magnets. Everything is better with magnets.

Wow... This has got to be one of the most idiotic ideas I've ever seen. EVER! I don't mean that as a personal attack. I'm sure you are a really nice person and all, but it seems to me like you've failed to identify a viable target audience. No one is going to start up a computer, go to your site, just sit there and stare at various ads for the purpose of being entertained! When people watch TV, they don't channel surf to see what ads are on. In fact, channel surfing occurs more frequently during ads as people are generally not interested in them. When I watch a TV show and there is a commercial, I hit "previous channel" on my remote and watch part of another show until my show comes back on. It's not the other way around where you switch channels to find ads because teh shows are driving you insane! (well.. some shows do)

Advertisers will not pay you to feature ads that no one will ever bother looking at. It's completely idiotic. I applaud your entrepreneurship, but stronly urge you to come up with a better idea and make that work instead.

Has viewing Superbowl ads resulted in any purchases?

That's what you say, but I think you were secretly hoping for Rolling Stones nipple action.

Yeah, me too.  Though they have not been as entertaining lately as they used to be.

Not me personally, but I don't think I've ever bought anything that I saw on TV at any time. There are, however lots of people that I know will buy any old piece of shit the Experts in White say they need on late night TV (which is where I come in at work).

I used to videotape the ads for the Superbowl.  I probably have a bunch of VHS tapes somewhere with ads on them.

Hey fellows, I have had a rather brilliant idea! Why don't I make a website that ONLY shows ads, all the time! I'll call it...adsforyou or something. I just hope I've got it done soon, people want to see their ads on time, after all...

"the idea is similar to milliondollarhomepage but it is completely different"

This is a quote from our friend on another forum. It seems that Logic Boy over here has been spamming the ads on time crap on a lot of forums. And everywhere he goes, people tell him what an idiotic idea that was but he still doesn't get it. Go figure.  :roll:
