Donate To My Caffeine Fund

I'm a college student so that equates to not having much time or money. However, you can donate money to me which I promise to use towards caffeinated items. Caffeine keeps me awake at night which in turn gives me a lot of free time to set at my computer writing userscripts. So basically Your Money -> Caffeine -> Me Awake -> More Userscripts!!!!

Hi,

I'm new to xpath, but I think there's a bug in the conditional expression for picking the DOM nodes that are ads. Here's a suggested modification:

      
      function remove(element) {
        element.parentNode.removeChild(element);
      }
      
      var xpathExpression = 
      	'//div[contains(@class, "ad_") or contains(@class, "_ad")]';
      
      var ads = document.evaluate(xpathExpression, document.body, null, 
      	XPathResult.UNORDERED_NODE_SNAPSHOT_TYPE, null);
      
      for (var i = 0, ad; ad = ads.snapshotItem(i); i++) {
      	remove(ad);
      }
      
      if (document.getElementById('ssponsor')) {
      	remove(document.getElementById('ssponsor'));
      }
