Websites I view on my phone, which scroll down just before I click (touch) on a link so that I end up clicking on an ad instead of the link I wanted.

then again, both on phones and laptops, there are the ads that take up almost the entire screen so you can't help but click them if you want to get to the content
(and as you scroll down, the ad scrolls down the screen too)

and even worse when there's audio along with it

"I swear, honey, the reason you saw that website on my phone was the result of a complete accident!!!"

Automated phone solicitation calls where the automated voice tells you it is not an automated voice but a real person.

I've received these call three times now. The first time I asked if I was talking to a recording and it responded with a laugh and said "Well, no one's ever asked that before" then I hung up.

This last time I played a long a little longer. Turns out they're trying to get you to enroll in classes somewhere. I asked if they had classes in sexual deviation, the voice recommended information technology and the like. I asked if they had classes in prostitution, because she sounded like a prostitute, it recommended classes in business management. When I used words relating to genitalia too many times it hung up on me.

LOL!!! I've never had anything like that before. But you've probably gotten yourself on some sort of watch list now.

I get one continually where a friendly guy's voice starts with "Oh, thank heavens for voice mail..." and then launches into a spiel about gutter cleaning or window washing
 
now I've got to check my history...
hold on

EDIT: OOPS. He's right. Wonder if I can correct it. This will be a good test of my mod powers.

Sorry PKM. Not sure how that happened. Isn't green rep the default position? I didn't think I changed that.

You drive you wife and kids around in a jacked up diesel truck? That seems like a horrible type of vehicle for that sort of thing.

Ever heard of a mini van?
