Perhaps it's just me...

My ad this morning was promoting an immigration lawyer and some tacos, I was highly offended. But I dropped salsa on my keyboard and didn't have time to complain.

I'm pretty sure it's not ALL from your browser though. I've been getting a lot of ads in Spanish for some bizarre reason, and all I know in that language are some food words and "Where is the library." I guess if I get into that stereotypical predicament where I need a bathroom in a Spanish-speaking country I'll just hunt down the nearest library and use the bathroom there?

I totally flashed on Brendan Fraser in BeDazzled! Hola! Mucho Gusto! Me llamo Elliot! Hola Juan, hola Esteban, dónde esta esa biblioteca?

Funny movie from 15 years ago where main character sells his soul to the (she)devil, wakes up one morning as a different person and can speak fluent Spanish.

^^^^Totally off topic, I know, but funny things jump into my head sometimes . . . . while I peruse the Stanley Steemer and allergy meds ads. Hmmmm. Ahhh, now I get it. Logged onto local pollen count website last spring. Once.

After looking at those threads yesterday from the girl who refuses to swallow iron supplements, I am getting ads for Cheerios. In Spanish.

Due to health issues, I need to eat a moderate-carb diet. No processed cereals for me, ever. I promise that I have never searched for Cheerios.

The Cheerios site in Spanish does have all kinds of cute little graphics with dancing hearts and Os. ¡Barriga llena, corazon contento!

I get "date Russians and Asians" on mine...

I get the "Beautiful Asian girls waiting for you" one or whatever.

Because I wrote about kimchee once. Okay, three or four times. Whatever.

My ads get weird sometimes.



P.S. I don't have any kids.

For years I got ads for quickie divorces in the Dominican Republic. I am not Dominican, have never been there...and I've never been married. Somebody's algorithm was WAY off.

What is Steak & Shake? Whatever it is, it sounds delicious.

I get tons of food ads on here, doesn't really bother me.

It's a place with steak burgers, and a big variety of milk shake flavors. It's really good. They have other things of course - I rarely get a burger. I love their grilled chicken melt and the hot dogs.

Oh, now I'm getting ads for Huggies flushable wipes. I don't have kids.

But I do have fun telling teatox posters they're going to get diarrhea so maybe that's why?

I get the Kate Hudsen Fabletics ads too. I was seeing one for Citi a while ago, I don't bank there.

Hey, actually an opportunity to notice urges associated with those ads and not act on them, thereby decreasing the urges. (Basically, sit with the urge and notice it getting stronger and weaker, notice that you don't need to act on it).
