When I'm at home in the comfy confines of Firefox with adblock and NoScript, I do not see the sidebar ads on facebook. Here at work they are present. I just saw one that was obviously tyring to fool you, with a headline of "Make x dollars an hour", with the small print being it was a smaller amount for 10 minutes of your time. Problem is, it said this:
Make $500 an hour
[picture of a roll of dolla bills]
Make $50 in 10 mins
It's times like these that make me ashamed to be a business major.

I do have to say that I'm captivated by the dancers offering me a lower interest rate on my mortgage (particularly the clown doing a krump dance).
Unfortunately, no krump clowns in this video:
