Most ad plugins are tailored "for you". However that never ever works and just makes it very irrevelant.

Also I tried using LTT WITH adblock and it continued to give me these ads, so i'm guessing it's part of the website or something??

I was getting that too. I thought it was a cross site scripting attack or I had a virus, when I first saw it.

 

This appears in the HTML, so it's probably by LTT.

Adblock probably blocks based on some kind of standardized ad templates, so if you make a custom wrapper, it won't detect and block them.

I feel bad for the server hosts of the sites you visit.
