We can’t possibly be the only ones sick of seeing this upon visiting the many sites who for some odd reason insist upon using slow ad servers. In all honestly, we’re not out to trash Falk but we’ve seen this particular slowness for years. Not months. Years. One would think after all that time, someone might say, “Hey, something’s not right,” and actually do something about the problem. Just as bad is AdFreak’s use of CheckM8’s Applet thingy that makes it impossible to do anything for about 15 seconds after visiting the site. We’re sure our ad server sucks too but that’s besides the point. After all these years of ad serving, why do we still have these issues?

Describing a life as busy and in demand isn’t only a complaint — consumer researchers studying status signaling found that busyness can function as a badge, because people often read a packed schedule as evidence that someone is competent, scarce, and wanted by others.
