Sandisk Sansa Clip Tragb...
Usually I don't pay attention to the ads floating around, but I just noticed that banner trying to push FACELIFTS and facial surgery and the surgeon of my/your choice...

Just what did we do to attract the attention of whatever program is selecting the ads and make it decide we're interested in getting our faces lifted?
It must be all that talking about lifts, I guess...

I clicked around a bit to see what else would turn up, and, sure enough, there was an ad for Monty Python merchandise.
At least they got that right.

*LOL*

I came to the same conclusion concerning lifts. Haven't seen any Python stuff though.
We could play around with that "feature" a little bit... *g*
Anyone got a nice idea of some exotic keywords that we could mention every now and then?!?

Sex sells... at least they try to sell it.
Or we could pretend to be housewifes with a gun fetish.

I've seen lots of ads for cosmetic zappers (presumably for spots, but I'd really rather not know). I guess that makes sense.

As for facelifts, we've made many references to 'lifts' before of a more up/down nature.

I'd be curious to know what they make of our names.

Artinum.

I only get facelifts...

Let's try:

Mädchen, Freundin, Single, allein, Girl, Frau, Woman, looking, alone, suche, ficken, sex, tits, Möpse, butt, Hintern, schön, beautiful.

Feed the machine!


Still... Cosmetic Zappers!

(insane cackling)

He he! This works even in the chat!
Z and I just noticed funny changes in the ads even while we were typing!

By the way: We want to try another chat-meeting next Sunday, 19 p.m. CET!

I just got linked to www.thejohncleese.com by an ad on our site, which contains stuff like "fawlty links" and "fawlty shop".
Guess it was just a matter of time.
