I refuse to click them, and just let them hang there. If I can still read the article, great. If not, I leave the page.

Here's the thing...

There are a number of ways I can get to that content.

However, I don't think the content is worth it.

I've found a very strong correlation between low-quality content and low-quality presentation.

When I see a site which pulls this kind of crap or requires several megs worth of JS just to display text, I just assume it's low-quality content and move on.

Sometimes there are exceptions, but they're rare.
