    Did anyone one else have this little beauty in an ad at the side of their MFP pages? A link to selling Robo-Pong? As a great fitness device. Better than going to the gym. I couldn't watch more than a few minutes, but it's a full half hour video. And for almost a thousand bucks, you too can have one. Are they nucking futs? Great. Now that'll be at the side of my MFP windows for a long time. I still can't get rid of the damned Brazilian Butt Lift ads because I clicked on a discussion about that once. Thanks MFP for rotting my brain a bit more:

    I see what you did there OP posting the link. I will not share your pain! I am however interested in learning (seeing) more about Brazillian butt lifts...

    Meh.
    I use an ad-blocker.

    The ads are based off of what you're searching for..so there is that.

    Yup.

    I was just excited that it comes with free balls.

    But it seems like everywhere I turn around town, they're selling ping pong balls. I some some at the grocery store yesterday. My 7-11 has a whole supply of them. Is there a new fad of playing ping pong?

    Two words, buddy: Beer Pong.

    @JenandSome I sink 'em, you drink 'em :drinker: :smokin:

    Count your blessings. My wife commented to me about wanting to go to the Island Atlantis on a cruise. I started searching around for "Atlantis Cruises" and the like.

    Now, for the last three months, my MFP, Facebook, and Pretty much every other site with Ad banners displays 5 shirtless guys and the tag line "Join us on Atlantis, Europe's hottest gay cruise".

    What does the internet know that I don't?

    I'd love an advert on robo ping-pong!

    For some reason I've got a Government advert on TV licensing in Arabic! Absolutely *no* idea why it's in Arabic (I don't speak it so don't go to Arabic sites) or why the UK Government are griping about needing a TV Licence in Arabic.

    Ooooo it's ok....now I have fluffy bunnies who want to eat All Bran. I bloody hate All Bran; you may as well sit behind a shredder with your mouth open and get someone to feed through cardboard.

    Search/browser history is only a portion of the equation, but ABP is my friend also.

  • I don't even pay attention to the ads. But, it wouldn't surpise me that they post stuff like that. :laugh:

    I'm on Firefox via droid but see ads.:grumble:

    Exactly.

    There are people who still don't use AdBlock??? Are you guys also using IE?

    I've been a MFP user for 3 years and I don't get ads anymore. I feel like I am getting left out :sad:
