The act of moving your mouse pointer carefully around a web page to avoid nuisance pop-up ads. This technique requires some skill and a sharp eye to dodge "hover-over-and-pop-up-ads" embedded in a news article or column.

"Come'on! I just want to see who won the game, but these pop-ups keep trying to sell team jerseys. Looks like I'm gonna need my advoiding skills for this site..."

self-advising 

'Self-Advising' is the term for doing what you ought not, KNOWING BEFOREHAND that you ought NOT and yet . . . you do it anyway. This is especially true of calling with a known dead hand in poker. Against our own best advice to ourselves and gut instincts (and sometimes even the odds), we do what we know is wrong because . . . well, you know the list of reasons, we all have them and interchange and use them at random.

When am I going to start listening to myself and STOP! listening to myself? That's what I get for self-advising again.
