Yes, I'm browsing with JavaScript disabled by default. It cuts out an incredible amount of crap. With JavaScript, web sites (especially "news" sites) are unusably slow due to all the crap advertising pushing GB of crap JavaScript at you.

P.S. Most web sites use Google analytics, which relies on JavaScript so, as a bonus, I'm in Google's blind spot.
