Angry WTF is with these "sponsored links"???

I've been browsing around and I see all these words double underlined and once you pass the cursor over them, up pops these sponsored links.

I dont like this.

Kind of interesting - I saw that "Jetta" and "struts" were double underlined in my sig and thought it was some sort of spelling or grammar correction notice. Actually kind of cool - the struts link takes me to the TireRack site for springs and shocks - and the Jetta link takes me to a car shopping site, which makes sense 'cuz once you've got a Jetta you're bound to be shopping for a new car soon!

The green color is changing on plasma, waiting for them to make the code change on their end. I'm going to make it a light grey.

I resent that.

And the "new car" has to link to Honda.... Sigh...

Was there a point to this or have you been using the funny fuel again?
