Sure wish Internet sites would lighten up on the ads

I think Words With Friends has invested heavily in phone batteries. Most of the sites I visit don't really seem to get me. And the more I see the same ads, the more likely I am to cross those companies off my list. And if one more company takes on an annoying animal cartoon as its mascot, I will probably implode!
