Ads should show up next (or under in your case) to your avatar at the top of the page. You can definitely see the ads if you logout. The ads are a little wider for guests to fill in the missing space reserved for avatars.
If you're not seeing ads it's because your avatar is so small (which is a bug I'd like to know about) so if that's the case I'd like to know / maybe have a screenshot.
Edited: Oh... you say your work is blocking ads??
PS: They're really just targeted content, like you get on Google or in Gmail. They're not always trying to sell something (other than wanting more netizens to see the ads on their site)
You always see interesting/amusing stuff you wouldn't have thought to look for otherwise. I think they're interesting. I don't know why people try so hard to ignore ads. It's a lot better than the random ads you see on tv or sleaze ball ads. They're target at the whatever is on the page you're reading, so it can really be more like supplemental information. Ads could be a gold mine for a site with a truly responsible community. Unfortunately the readers over at digitaldevildb.com are punk kids pretty much at the end of the day, so the site has a hard time staying even solvent.
