when you're on MFP, and a random pizza ad comes up.
Feel free to share your moments.

    When you're reading a juice fast topic and the ad is for toilet paper.

    For some weird reason, my will power is amazing. Pizza, ice cream..carbs of any kind...just don't phase me. I think I'm coming down with something!

    I rarely even notice the ads. Currently it's an ad for Holiday Inn Express and there is a chicken in the pic. Which seems more weird than awkward.

    My favorite ads are still all the ones I got for Larvets (the original worm snack!) that I started getting after I googled for a link to cricket flour due to a discussion in one of the threads.

    I am never tempted by food ads, though -- just don't find them appealing. (I mean, even apart from the Larvets.)

    The ads don't register on me in the split second it takes me to notice them and add them to AdBlockPlus.

    I recently browsed a local theater's showtimes, and so now all my banner ads are for the play "Women Laughing Alone With Salad", with a picture of a naked women bathing in a giant bowl of salad.

    Can't tell if inspirational, or ironic...

    I never have food ads unless I'm on here. It's just not right, lol.

    But now I've been actively online shopping at Home Depot, so all I see everywhere are the items I shopped for and ones like them. That's smart and much nicer :)

    I'm forever being shown adds for plus size clothing shops. Except I haven't worn plus sizes in over two years now...

    One day I logged a store-bought treat and I got ads for it for MONTHS. It ticked me off so much that I will not eat the thing again, lol.

    I checked in on Facebook at a Cincinatti Reds game. Now I keep getting hotel banner ads.

    All I seem to get are ads with overweight women in long dresses.

    I admit to looking up long dresses ... and I suppose the ad gods are combining that with the fact that I'm on a weight loss site ...

    Can you post the actual link? I might need it later on, based on my ad.
