Don&rsquo;t go yet! Come back and sign up to my email (legit spam) list!&rdquo;.</p> <p>It looks something like this:</p> <p><a href="https://media.ngmarley.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/exitpop2.png"><img src="https://media.ngmarley.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/exitpop2.png" alt="A Typical Exit Popup" title="exitpop2"></a></p> <p>And keep trying to get your ass outta there, and each time it gets more &amp; more frustrating, because the site won&rsquo;t let you close the damn window.</p>
