It seems that you're using an outdated browser. Some things may not work as they should (or don't work at all).
We suggest you upgrade newer and better browser like: Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer or Opera

I usually have no problems with cookies but with ads, man I block them heavily. fuck them and their aggresive ads.
I highly suggest uBlock Origin it's a marvel of a program, behaves like an firewall for ads. just great.

As far as the cookie thing - almost every browser has a "private browsing" mode (at least; IE, Chrome and Firefox do).

Simply browse those sites in that mode, and let them set their cookies.

As soon as you're done, simply close the browser and POOF! all the cookies are gone. Next time you visit those same sites, they'll have to set "fresh" cookies (because the previous cookies went poof). Cycle begins anew..

Tallima: I agree. But I'm curious how a penis could be shaped in such a way.
It's all about blood pressure. A penis can get long enough to reach one's own anus while still being soft enough to bend that way. I guess it also depends on the particular anatomy, though.
Cookies for the most part I do not care about. So long as the site works. Ads on the other hand. Ads do my head in.
Not the little ads that sit there quietly with a single image nicely to once side or the top of a page, but those auto-play and pop up ads do my head in. Slow internet and auto-play are not good friends. It was those which drove me to installing ad blocking software.

This just reminds me to never watch European porn. Way too much weird stuff.

Interesting difference compared to traditional AdBlockers. I'm going to try it and see if it's better than ABP.
If you don't care then I'll care for you!

Very well!

Or this crap, "Oh you ad hater! You use an adblocker! Now we can't afford running our site for hundreds of other visitors who we love to infect with viruses through our ads or just to annoy the living HELL out of!"
"You are using an ad blocker because ads slow down your PC to the crawl of a one legged turtle and make your Firefox browser freeze or crash! Because of this, we won't let you access the content of our website" Okay, fine. Then I will just stop visiting your shitty website.

I didn't know you have a degree in Penisology.

toxicTom: Understandable. The cookie warning thing is a EU guideline
Can't wait to see how many disclaimers per minute the EU will have Windows 10 pop up on everyone's computer.

Ghostbreed: snip
You can use a program that blocks page ads/elements to block that particular one from showing up. Problem solved.

ET3D: Now I have to ask: what reasons?

P1na: Now there's something I don't care about. Because it looks cool? Because maybe they'll add cookies later and they want to cover their asses? Because they see it anywhere and want it on their site too?

client: there's no warning about cookies.
me: well, there are no cookies.
client: we need the warning.
me: ... Ok, whatever.
I think it's more like a CYA move. Chances are someone else may come along and make modifications or 3rd party JavaScript libraries are introduced which could potentially allow for the use of cookies or the fact that you are using JavaScript means there is access to them.

Couple that with the fact that in some cases, management makes a decision in which the only way to make a more complex Web application work the way they expect it (some twisted crime of logic that usually makes no sense whatsoever), cookies might need to be used.

Examples: setting a language or time zone on your "device" which is entirely different from your language or time zone you've already set for either your device. You're allowed to change these and they are stored on the server, but to log in, you need to see your log in screen and time information based on the value stored in the 'cookie' rather than use the client's native set feature.

We have all the lawyers and litigious mammals to thank for this.
fuck...

This sounds like a program made for Steam fanboys who want to block Uplay and Origin oO
I don't care if the sun don't shine.

You should have added a general warning like:

"Warning! Packaged cookies contain lots of trans-unsaturated fatty acids which are hazardous to your health! Only eat home-made cookies!"
