    I don't use facebook but I watch a lot of youtube videos. I use Mozilla Firefox and Adblock Plus and it blocks all ads. Would that work for facebook?

    In my experience adblock plus does a pretty good job with facebook ads on Firefox. Also use noscript and ghostery which likely both help a little too toward that end.

    1. Fraudulent buyers on Feebay, oops... I mean Takeallofyourprofitsandblameeverythingonyoubay. I know it's part of the game, but it still makes me mad every time it happens.
    2. Having to pee when there is a line
    3. When people won't let you buy something of value that they are throwing away at the dump
    4. When that perfectly stacked pile of scrap in the shop somehow tips over
    5. Getting a mountain of control boards tested and finding a random one in the corner
    6. Taking something apart that I later find out was actually worth quite a bit in resale value
