Gotta love online adds! (NOT)

  • I was posting something on the Exercice forum of 3FC when suddenly, I felt there was someone looking at me.

    Actually, there was some BACON LOOKING AT ME.



    I know that this is probably random adds related to my browser history, but isn't it some really strong irony to have a big add of a new bacon sandwich while browsing a weight loss forum?

    Anyone got other experienced with random weird adds that got you ''AWW, COME ON''!?
  • One morning I logged on and the top ad was for cookies and the right ad was for McDonalds. Seriously?
  • Haha, funny thats my post. But yes I have. Got one a few weeks ago that had a big heaping cone of ice cream (thank goodness I don't like ice cream to start out with). But I remember thinking.. What? That's like a kick in the teeth. Fortunantly a lot of ads are about weight loss strategies. The one to my right, right now is lap-band surgery. Better than ice cream and bacon (really not, cause bacon is AWESOME). I've just happily switched to turkey bacon .
  • why can't people spell?
  • the banner ad I'm looking at right now is for Chili's to go, lol.

    *Sigh* Why can't people ignore it and be nice, if the meaning is clear?

    Back to topic- sometimes I see some funny ads but today it's all TRX Trainer, SmileTrain and Kindle. Not sure why, as I haven't searched on any of those terms lately. Bacon would be tough, since I love bacon.

    Edit: Never mind, I said bacon and now my banner ad is for McDonalds. Ha.
  • that is why

    Because PEOPLE don't all speak English as their first language but PEOPLE try to get better everyday by, for example, reading and chatting on English forums and stuff. Because you see, PEOPLE can speak French as their own language and PEOPLE might not be 100% bilingual.

    Sorry that hurts your little princess eyes, sweetheart. Hope they did not bleed!

  • Where is my darn popcorn?

    (I wonder if popcorn will cause an ad for food?)
  • I keep looking for an ad and don't see any! My husband is a computer guy for work and he must have installed something here to block them.

    It must be on my iphone that I usually see them.

    ETA: I just checked this thread from my phone and the ad is for bistromd.com. I wanted to see some popcorn!!

    I'm prettyyyyy sure I got the bacon ad because I pinned a freaking bacon-brownies recipe a few days ago...

    But oh well. It is probably my karma to see bacon ads after pinning such a thing LOL

    P.S. I never thought I'd be the kind of person who would be in a situation where you'd need to fetch popcorn. I'll try to behave better

    Omg! I'd never popcorn someone's own thread they started. It was more for throwing at ms. perfect above!! And...trying to catch the attention of a popcorn ad!!

    And did you say bacon brownies?! I wish I could insert the drool smiley right here!!!
