Pop-up ads are probably the most infamous type of Internet Ads. They show up out of nowhere, waste RAM, have some sort of inane product or deal you don't care about, may link to malware or other harmful crap, and take a couple precious seconds to close with a small "x" located in the window's corner (and sometimes, you may not even find it). Naturally, they can be used as a way to cause annoyance in media. Please keep examples limited to In-Universe use or game mechanics (which can oftentimes overlap with Interface Screw) deliberately intended to have this effect. We understand how much of a nuisance they are (which is why you can report particularly bad ones on this site in this thread or purchase an Ad-Free pass for 20$ per year), but this is not the place to complain. |

Animator vs. Animation: In "Animator vs Animation II", the animator is so fed up by pop-up ads, that once he defeats the Chosen One, he turns him into a glorified pop-up blocker. In "Animation vs. YouTube", the stick figures have to deal with a few ads that pop up while they are watching YouTube. Later when they are fighting the website itself, ads interrupt the fight, and both sides express their disdain before skipping the ad and resuming their fight. The Actual Short "Pop-ups" shows the Second Coming getting increasingly frustrated with pop-ups appearing on the animator's computer. When one appears that steals clips from the animations to promote a mobile game, the Second Coming gets so infuriated that he starts smashing them all with a giant hammer. |

Marketing material for the Google Chromebook highlight their anti-virus software with various things that could go wrong if unprotected. Such annoyances include pop-ups, as seen in the ads "What is a Chromebook?" and "If you're tired of viruses, You Chromebook". | |

Ralph Breaks the Internet: On arriving at eBay, Ralph is briefly distracted by personified pop-up and banner ads, which take the form of people holding signs and saying things like "These Ten Child Stars Went to Prison (Number 6 Will Amaze You!)" and "Sassy Housewives Want To Meet You!". Fortunately, he also meets a personified popup ad that helps him find a way to pay after he inadvertently raises the price of the steering wheel Vanellope's game needs. | |

The Order of the Stick manages to make reference to this trope via Redcloak summoning a Quinton. Among other computer-service references, Redcloak ops for "ad-supported summoning" when he casts the gate spell; this means that the costs of the Quinton's services are lower, but it'll also bring up minions to imitate pop-up ads whenever Team Evil mentions a related topic. | |

In Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel!, the Downloadable Content expansion Claptastic Voyage has you enter Claptrap's mind to retrieve the H-Source. In the first few areas, random pop-up ads and spam will literally pop out of the ground, with an option to pay money to make them go away. Though, you can just move around them, or interact/hit the little red X in the corner to dismiss them. They can actually prove to be helpful by providing cover to hide behind. There are also the Adbug enemies that deal no damage but beam a translucent banner ad into the players' view. | |

The very first thing Kirito sees once entering a virtual reality MMO in Sword Art Online Abridged is a whole bunch of pop-up ads. This is the only time they appear, presumably because the sponsors pulled out as soon as it became a death game; after all, players can't buy products if they can't leave. | |

Five Nights at Freddy's: Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator has sponsorship deals you can accept to gain more money, but you get a screen-filling ad related to them during the night. It produces noise and makes the terminal unusable for four to five seconds, after which it becomes skippable. Ultimate Custom Night: El Chip bombards the player with one of three ads for El Chip's Fiesta Buffet, with their frequency depending on how high his difficulty is set. Each one lasts seven seconds and produces noise that triggers sound-based animatronics, but you can press the "Skip" button or Enter to end it early. |

Poptropica: Mocktropica Island is an Internal Deconstruction of Poptropica itself, featuring the game under new management by a money-hungry company. One of these changes is the addition of regular pop-up ads, which advocate Bribing Your Way to Victory. Later in the island, the ad manager introduces "the most obtrusive ad of all time": a flashy, rapidly-moving pop-up that you can't close out of. The only way you can get rid of it is by paying the manager to buy up all the game's ad space, which you don't use. | |

Gundam Build Divers: Emilia entered the Nadeshiko-athlon despite not caring about the reward to become GBN's image girl because a pop-up ad for the competition appeared on a window she was using the reflection of to admire her earrings, and a passing-by Karuna said it didn't suit her. Emilia believed he meant she wasn't good enough to win the competition (he was actually talking about the earrings she was already considering replacing) and slammed the ad's "enter" button to join the competition and restore her pride. | |

Family Guy: In "HTTPete", Peter simulates this for Chris after the Internet is destroyed (by him), through the use of multiple curtains (to Chris' annoyance). | |

In the Strong Bad Email episode "Virus", one of the effects of the eponymous virus is to spawn many pop-up ads with a previous design of Homestar Runner saying the secret code from "Homestar Talker", an old game, and the title bar of each reading "Click on the Monkey!!" One of these ads may even spawn outside of the toon and in the viewer's browser. Naturally, Strong Bad frustratedly screams when the pop-ups pop up. | |

Ultimate Custom Night: El Chip bombards the player with one of three ads for El Chip's Fiesta Buffet, with their frequency depending on how high his difficulty is set. Each one lasts seven seconds and produces noise that triggers sound-based animatronics, but you can press the "Skip" button or Enter to end it early. | |
