These ads are driving me insane

I know I can pay to get rid of them, but I'm not feeling inclined to do that.
My trouble is that the ads I am being presented on this site are either offensive, highly disruptive or both.
I am getting only ads with no exit or report options. The ads I'm getting are either freezing my page or pushing everything around every second as I'm trying to navigate this site and I end up accidentally clicking on the ad when I don't want to.
Also, from viewing this site as a guest for 2 weeks(...), I have come to the opinion that it is so much worse as a guest. The ads then are so excruciatingly annoying it is sometimes unpleasant to use the site.

I know ads bring revenue but is there any chance of either decreasing the amount some, allowing for an option to exit or report ads, or make them more mobile friendly? (Btw adblock still pushes the white rectangular ad box but with an exit option. This is the only site it does it on.)
 
While I am not getting the offensive ads, they are pushing things around for me too. As I write this, the text box has shifted, and a new ad loads or reloads about every 30 seconds. Also, when I come on as a guest, especially on mobile, the site is incredibly unpleasant to use, as the ads block a much larger portion of the screen than I believe is necessary to be effective.
 
I think Nifty wants to see screenshots of all offending ads. If they aren't family friendly, maybe it would be best to send them in a conversation instead.
The conflict comes with who you ask. What is offensive to me is not the case to the majority here. I didn't take screenshots of more than 1.

Suffice it to say that the offensive ads I had been recieving strongly promoted a specific religious group that I strongly dislike.

As a computer guy I can say that most ads that run on websites are based on cookies in your browser history. You can go in and clear your browser history and cache and that may alleviate part of your problem

True but coincidence or not even words mentioned in post bring up advertising. :idunno
