Pajiba After Dark / Intern Rusty

Miscellaneous | November 2, 2009 | Comments (15)


Thanks to Daylight Savings Time, Monday here in Miami dawned bright, sunny, and an hour earlier than usual. Somehow, I’m still tired. Also, we’ve moved into the time of year when living in Miami begins to feel like an altered state of consciousness; this week the highs are all in the 80s and the lows in the 70s. It’s the first week of November. I don’t know that I’ll ever really get used to it, even though I enjoy it. Here’s your Monday night TV:

7:30 p.m.: “World Series Game #5” on FOX. Tonight could clinch the series for the Yankees. That doesn’t mean I think the game will be exciting, I’m just stating a fact.

8:00 p.m.: “Dancing With The Stars” on ABC.

“How I Met Your Mother” on CBS.

“Heroes” on NBC.

“One Tree Hill” on The CW.

8:30 p.m.: “Accidentally On Purpose” on CBS.

“Monday Night Football: Atlanta Falcons at New Orleans Saints” on ESPN.

9:00 p.m.: “Gossip Girl” on The CW.

“Dr. G : Medical Examiner” on Health. This used to be my little sister’s favorite show when she was like 10. I’d make a comment here about age-appropriate television, but I was watching “The X-Files” at that age, which is arguably gorier and more disturbing.

“Greek” on ABC Family.

“Trauma” on NBC.

“Two and a Half Men” on CBS.

“WWE RAW” on USA.

9:30 p.m.: “The Big Bang Theory” on CBS.

10:00 p.m.: “Animal Cops: Philadelphia” on Animal Planet. In case the baseball game is hideously depressing for you Philly natives, just watch about 5 minutes of this. Then even if the Phillies are losing, it’ll be like sunshine and rainbows.

“CSI: Miami” on CBS.

“The Jay Leno Show” on NBC, as it continues it’s long slow slide into oblivion.

“Castle” on ABC, which again starts two minutes after the hour even though there’s no lead in. I think ABC is programmed by contrarians.

Intern Rusty is a Masters student at the University of Miami. You can learn more about her at Rusty’s Ventures.

(sorry if this derails this thread, but screw it...)

I know there was a post sometime in the last couple weeks about ads and to not really bitch about them and all, but seriously, a freaking roadblock ad? Those suck, please cut it out.

Enjoy your Yankees, America. I'll be too busy enjoying Monday Night Football.

WHO DAT?!!!

“Heroes” on NBC.

That show's still on? Couldn't they have it put to the pasture?

show them what you're working with New Orleans!

Listen fifteenkeys, if you knew anything about running a website you would know that the more that Rowles runs these ads the less he has to pay to keep this website up and running. These ads help defray the cost of doing business on the web. Rowles would have to pay even less to keep pajiba running if he would let some of those adult themed websites advertise on his website, but I’m not sure he wants to go down that path. I studied advertising in college and I would have received my degree but unfortunately a bit of unpleasantness forced me to enter the work force before I had planned to.

I really never even see popup ads. I'm no techie, but it seems to me that there is some software that would prevent this from happening, since I seem to have it. And Dustin's got to feed Lil'Pajiba, so do whatcha gotta do.

Oh my God, I just agreed with everything Pookie said.

I don't even know who I am anymore. Wait, where am I? Who's that lady over there? YOU'RE NOT MY MOM! DON'T YOU COME NEAR ME, LADY!


(Seriously, stop bitching about the fucking ads already.)

Posted by: Nicole at November 2, 2009 8:39 PM

Hey, I don't care about ads per se (bills gotta be paid, got it), but the annoying ads are another issue. If I type in pajiba.com I don't want to have to run a gauntlet of ads to get there.

To sum up: Ads = good. Roadblock ads = freaking annoying.

Posted by: fifteenkeys at November 2, 2009 9:02 PM

Ahhhhh, now I understand your problem fifteenkeys. Might I suggest that you type Iamsofuckingannoying.com or nobodyputafuckingguntomyheadandmademecometothisfuckingwebsite.com and that should solve all your problems.

Posted by: Guess Who! at November 2, 2009 9:21 PM

Betweeen Firefox, Vista, and NoScript, I get almost Zero ads. Those I get I only gt because I allow them so some video or link will play. Samll price.

The kinder gentler Whookie is freaking me out a little. All good, but weird. Welcome back!

Baseball in November seems wrong. I'm not a sports fan so I don't really pay attention, but didn't baseball used to be a strictly summer sport?

Posted by: DeadBessie at November 3, 2009 8:03 AM

Today I decided to be a dedicated Pajiban and click some ads for products that I actually have an interest in. Thinking that way, I would spend some time on their site and everyone would be happy. Second one I clicked I get a "site down for maintenance". It's going to be one of those days.

I do2ed off. Did the Phillies win? Or is Corporate America running the country again? Where's Obama when you need him? Still fucking around trying to make a college football playoff happen? He should be working on fixing the economic disparities in baseball. "Change we can blieve in," with the Yankees on or nearly on top again? I call bullshit.

Who cares!!! My boyfriend also agrees with me. He is 10 years older than me, lol. We met online at age-gap club -- http://AgelessMeet.COM/. Maybe you wanna check out or tell your friends.

Oh, silly Kyra. Saying "Who cares!!!" to a bunch of elitists will not make us visit your silly website.
And um, WHOMUTHAFUCKINDAT?!!?!?!?!
