A Supository Ad on MovieChat? Are You Fucking Kidding Me?


I guess it's okay to tell us to stick it up our ass if they're getting paid for the advertisement.

reply

Did you see that above the thread or below it?

reply

Above. Maybe it was meant just for me?

reply

Ok that is interesting. The ads on top are google ads that are targeted based on stuff you have recently googled. So like on top, I see clothes from stores I was looking in recently.
The ones on the bottom are just garbage ads based on nothing. Clickbait trash.
If you had seen the suppository ad on the bottom I would not be surprised, I have seen penile enlargement ads and other stupid stuff.
But if you saw it on top, then I have to ask, what have you been googlin?

reply

BAHAHAHA!!!! 😂😂😂😂

reply

No Google search that should have triggered that. I just guess people like to tell me to cram it up my ass.

And, no, I am not gay.

reply

I dislike the ads with music or talking.

reply

I just got one for Russian ladies and I know I haven't been googling that!

I might get one though,she could help with the housework.

reply

On the top or on the bottom?
I get all kinds of stupid sleazy crap on the bottom ads. That doesn't mean anything.
The top ones though, they are definitely google linked.

reply

I get those Russian ladies as well. What have we googled Dazed!?

reply

I'm going to blame the emoji game!

I'm sure they're lovely ladies and that they look just like their photos...but I just don't swing that way!!

reply

Does anyone else use that computer?

reply

Nope it's my personal tablet.I definitely,definitely haven't searched for Russian ladies!
I promise you.

reply

Oops sorry I was trying to reply to R Kane who said he had not been googling suppositories.
I wondered if someone else used his computer.
It's not always the exact thing you googled, but the top ads are usually related. i.e. If i was looking at one womens clothing site, I might see ads for that exact store but also might see ads for other clothing sites OR other stores that appeal to the same demographic, if that makes sense. Like right now I have West Elm ads on top, (home decor). It's not a store I recently googled but it's kind of the same target market as the clothing store. They have algorithms that tell them "people who recently shopped at store A also often like store B".

reply

Sorry,thought you were talking to me!

Yes I usually get stuff from Amazon or clothes sites.I got another random one about umbrellas the other day,which I'm blaming on the poster with the Resident Evil fixation!

True. I have seen Home Depot ads for stoves. Our stove died a few weeks ago. We had to get a new stove. we went to Home Depot because we checked out the sales on line. now all I see on any site I go to is Stoves from Home depot.

reply

Google something else a few times like a certain brand of shoes or whatnot, men's swimwear if you want some eye candy in your header. ;)
then that new search should push the stoves out of your ads

reply

Good idea. I'll do that.

reply

Considering the fact several posters here are hemorrhoids, not that surprising

reply

I love that the product (at least in the UK) used for shrinking piles is called Anusol!

reply

LOL!

reply

Be careful when applying. Avoid "dangling things"!

Poise is something I could get behind....... or under me!
At my age, I'm not ashamed to admit that I need those products.....

reply

I haven't noticed any objectionable ads -- at least no more than your average ad is objectionable ;)

Most often the ads above the fold are related in some way to recent or somewhat recent Google searches I've made, but that isn't always the case.

Basically, I ignore them, especially the click-bait below the fold! It's not my first rodeo, and I already know what to expect if I click on them. YMMV (or [probably] not).

reply

Cat...you mean you really don't want to know 24 jaw-dropping moments in musicals or 10 horror-film scenes that will make your flesh crawl? ;-)

reply

Or why you don't see Jessica Biel in movies anymore?

reply

Naps, I know, it's difficult to believe, but I don't.

I am, though, somewhat intrigued by "Why [fill in name of character I've never heard of before] looks familiar," with the cropped photo of the face of a bug-eyed female person, who looks like she has fleshy antennae growing out of her forehead. Or two shaved hairlines on her head.

Sometimes it looks like one, sometimes the other. Given her insect-like eyes, I'm going with fleshy antennae :D

reply

I've missed you, catbookss.

Writing the clickbait crap is kind of the 21st-century version of indentured servitude.

reply

Thanks, R_Kane, nice of you to say so. I've missed you too.

I suppose it is a kind of indentured servitude for writers. I hadn't thought of it that way before. I'd thought of it more like telemarketers; you know people do it because they need the money and it's probably the best they can find due to depressed economics in their area.

But there is a big difference in that telemarketers are invasive, and we have to voluntarily click on the clickbait to read what the 21st century indentured servant has written :)

reply

Mine are boring. Right now there's an Air Express app ad on the top and Top Ten lists on the bottom. I admit to clicking the one about the X-Men - Dark Phoenix casting.

reply

Maybe they think we're all full of shit. (?)

(I use an ad-blocker, so haven't see the ad.)
