Yeah, I don't mind the static, manually selected ads too much. They tend to be much less annoying, and for better/more relevant services and products.

And as a bonus (for the website owner), they're also much harder to automatically block!

I don't even mind dynamic ads if they are targeted to the page content and not on my browsing history. If I'm reading a page on how to repair my dishwasher, ads from dishwasher manufacturers or sellers make sense.
