Mine have followed my searches and noted the websites I've visited and decided what I really, really need is a Dymo Labeller.

I don't.

Bath plug seals in my case. I had to buy a pack of four so clearly my world is Bath Plug Seal Centric.

I've clicked on Best of the Best and the associated thread on here a few too many times.

Now apparently I might want to enter similar raffles to win a 2015 Scania R-series truck or a low-hours Komatsu bucket loader/digger


And an auction for a Faberge dog sculpture estimated at £30,000 to £50,000.

Last week I looked at this picture on the Bad Tats thread.



Ever since this advert has been popping up.



Coincidence?

My favourite one was an ad for a dating site called 'Fit Singles' or some such on Facebook, aimed at single people (obviously) who like structured exercise.

Given I hate structured exercise and have been in a relationship for 25 years I loved the 100% wrongness of this.

not on here but the ads I'm referring to are the ones I see on Facebook which are "targeted" towards me, I presume

My kid's got the t-shirt second from left. It's really effective the first time you see it.

That comment was typed on my desktop pc in Firefox (no Adblock installed yet), and I’m now getting adverts for t-shirts and hoodies with that exact design in the Twitter client on my iPhone. Clever but also completely f’n useless at the same time.
