Help me prove to taz that I'm not crazy! [More:]

Up until about 2 hours ago, there was often (not always) a really creepy, large, fast centipede on the main page of MetaFilter, in an ad on the right side above the sidebar. You could only see it when you were logged out. I don't even know what the ad was for, but the centipede was large and juicy and quick and leggy and disgusting. It's not there anymore. But the question is...was it ever there or did I just imagine it?

Did anyone else ever notice it? Does anyone else ever log out? I can't find this stupid ad, and I'm trying to prove to taz that I'm not crazy. At least not *that* crazy.
Logout?! What, are you crazy?

It WAS there! I couldn't read any page that thing was crawling around on. I can't remember either what the ad was for, I just remember that it was GROSS and I saw it just the other day.

I can't imagine there are very many people here who ever logout. I never do.

I am not a Mefite, so I am never either logged in or out at MeFi, however, I would never dream of logging out of MeCha!!!

You are not mad.

I logged out. Saw nothing. Then I remembered I have adblock, noscript and flashblock installed. I did not turn them off, as I couldn't be arsed.

Ergo: you must be crazy like bologna underpants.

I feel silly for asking, but you already emailed Matt and/or Jessamyn right?
posted by getoffmylawn 09 November | 18:11
No I didn't email them...I thought starting a thread here would be more fun ;P

I'm usually logged out at work & still reading & I didn't see it this morning. Which means nothing. Really I just wanted to say that crazy like bologna underpants is my new favorite phrase of the world.

And quite right you are! Who needs them anyway?

Ok so others have seen it! I am not crazy like bologna underpants!

No it just smells like it ;)

Taz, iconomy isn't crazy.

There, that should do it.

Hah.

So does anyone know what the ad was for, or were you too grossed out by the centipede to care? I spent a lot of time averting my eyes.

I think it was sweet of getoffmylawn to say she saw it too... so that no one would realize that ico's just stark, raving, bugs-in-her-blue, creeping, crawling maaaaad.
