Who actually presses it?
It's annoying the bejesus out of me in its new incarnation on the new posts page. It's a good thing I'm not epileptic or I'd probably be lying on the floor right now with a tongue depressor in my mouth. :grouchy

What? What this about a fart button? Is it like a thread or something?

Its an advertisement in the top right corner of the new post page. It's been flashing rather annoyingly the last day or so.

Could just be a pop-up ad you're getting, as I don't see this.

I don't see it myself, but every now and then we get really annoying ads that Sean takes care of as soon as he is alerted of them. It's the ad provider itself.

You need a pop-up blocker. Do you use IE or firefox?

But it's a banner ad, and I don't know of any way to block those. :ughh

Maybe you should hurry up and claim the prize. :D
Seriously though I've seen that ad all over and have never givin it a second thought. But if you just scroll down an inch it will be gone.

But when I scroll back up to navigate around the site, I see it again and it keeps bugging me.

You should never press any of these automated ads, they install adware and spyware onto your computer.

Some do, some don't. I think Sean might be able to find out if an ad has a program attached to it (hint hint).

Yea, it doesn't annoy me at all. I never actually pay attention to what it is nor does it bother me.
