Once upon a time Google used few and non-intrusive ads. The ads were soo well-placed and relevant, that they almost seemed like a service to the user, rather than being forced upon you. Some of us even added exceptions for Google ads in our ad blockers, so we would not miss out.

I miss those days.

We go outside because it is too hot to stay inside.

That is a stupid question

I cannot understand why they even bother to do the elections at all. It is just for show, and everybody know it. Why not just skip it completely?
