I noticed recently that Topics are started based on the ads on the site.
Like yesterday I saw an Ad for gastric bypass and than there was a topic on it. Special K challenge and then I see an ad for target with Special K on sale.
Maybe these ads are effecting us poorly >.< Maybe its a conspiracy?!
Maybe Just Maybe.....
Okay so whats your conspiracy theory?

I noticed that yesterday...specifically about "Bananas, to eat or not to eat?!"
It simply makes me giggle.0 -
No.0

Could it be the other way around, and that the ads are being delivered based on keywords in the topics? That would be fairly easy to do, though I'm sure the ads do have at least a little influence (not that I see them).0

Since I got my food scale, I just weigh mine. But I used to gauge it that way. Haha!0 -

I wonder what happens when these people watch TV though.0 -
I think the ads are based on keywords.
My conspiracy theory?
I think Google is watching us and the aliens put it there so they would know how to take over the world when the time comes...... Fortunately for us, Kim Kardashian's love life isnt enough ammo to destroy mankind.
Ok.... maybe thats a stretch...... I dont really have any.0 -
