I'm sure someone out there objects to ads for beer in men's magazines. My thoughts are - if you really take offense to an ad ( or the company that is advertising ) on a website, simply don't return to the website. No sense getting one's panties all in a bunch. Personally, I'm not offended by any ads. I think most folks are in the same boat as me. Perhaps some folks are a bit too sensitive?

It can also be pretty funny at times, too. I think if you work with a small ad agency (e.g. The Deck) with a decent application process, though, you can almost always be assured of tasteful and contextually sound ads.
