I'm at work, and I work in one of those "open concept" offices. I'm the only IT person in here. I really don't want people to think I'm watching Flight of the Conchords when I'm just trying to edit a question a few times.

It's a cute image, but SO is supposed to be geared towards professionals. It might be just a tad too cute.– user27414Commented Sep 1, 2010 at 15:15

I think the Adblock answer that someone posted but apparently deleted upon the first downvote, was not a bad workaround. If the workspace is that strict, then some ads might be troublesome as well? (Ah, the answer is back!)– ArjanCommented Sep 1, 2010 at 15:28

1As usual a Greasemonkey or Stylish script will work... (but I can't work on it because I need to see the actual code, and I have no idea how to trigger that thing). I suppose if I give a dummy answer then quickly edit it five to six times I will see the thing?– Yi JiangCommented Sep 1, 2010 at 15:58

1Applying reductio ad absurdum, you're the only one that does what you do, your co-workers don't have a clue, they don't appreciate what you do, they automatically assume you are goofing off when they see an unusual image on your monitor. How is that SO's problem?– Uphill LugeCommented Sep 1, 2010 at 21:57

If you install Adblock Plus, you can right-click on it and select block image.

4I really never liked this answer. A. It's not an ad. B. I have to install third-party software and C. I always relate it to this. If I told a client this for one of our applications, they'd probably flip. Commented Sep 1, 2010 at 15:19

I'm running ad-block (not adblock plus, because I'm on chrome). I don't see a bunch of ads, but this image isn't one. I've installed a variety of plugins to my browser like "switchImages" that turn off images, but then I can't see the damn captcha graphic :( Commented Sep 2, 2010 at 14:13

You have to block it specifically. I don't know how you do that in Chrome's ad-blocker.– GelatinCommented Sep 2, 2010 at 14:28

Adblock now supports this under chrome6. Accepting because it solves my problem, but I'd doubt that SO wants us blocking their ad space. Commented Sep 16, 2010 at 18:59

@user142287: I haven't used Chrome's ad-blocker, but at least with Adblock Plus, actual ads are only blocked if you subscribe to a filter for them.– GelatinCommented Sep 16, 2010 at 20:52
