Post the best ads you've seen on NA after the recent update, such as on the Latest Posts page.

For example, Bigfoot Outrigging Pads. I have no idea what these are or why the advertisers chose to grace me with their presence.

Might be good to include a link to a page with ads, for quick reference: http://nintendoage.com/index.cfm?...

Nothing crazy so far for me.

Mine was "Ebay, don't miss out on new games" and they showed a picture of a Mega Man 9 Press Kit that I viewed last week. Damn you cookies!

A friend on Facebook mentioned that he was enjoying his "Anova" and I didn't know what that was, so I did a search on Google, and turns out it's a Sous Vide cooker. Now, all of my ads are for Anova Sous Vide cookers. I'm nowhere near interested in picking one up, so they're barking up the wrong tree.

Lol, this is good. We're going to collect these up and do another March Madness of ads. Bigfoot Outrigging Pads vs. Outdoor System PA Kits.

If folks keep posting the ads they see, we'll also get a glimpse into other things they've done in their browsers   It's certainly contextual, folks, so be mindful of what you share

That's funny. I've gotten this bad on Amazon over the years, especially if I search for a gift for someone that isn't related at all to something I would buy. Sometimes I get relevant stuff too. However, I'm logged in and part of their system in that case.

I keep a pretty low profile for generic online ads and always turn off settings whenever possible on sites, like Google search. Hence, they are probably going blind or pretty close to it with the ads on this site.

My latest hilarious one is some kind of Anime girl game that says something like "master, don't let them know you're playing." I also saw a Chevy truck ad. They seem to be arbitrarily cycling with huge conceptual leaps in between.

I'm surprised my Play-Asia history hasn't gotten me any crazy ads yet. xD

It's because of ColdFusion... this site runs on it, which is now owned by Adobe.

Same ad as me, but it shows a guy holding a DualShock 4 and scrolls to Dyson vacuums. No idea why since I never look at vacuums or PS4 stuff.

I'm getting groceries delivered to my home and playground equipment.

I'd say they have me pegged as a stay at home mom but I'm on my husband's computer.

Adobe still makes good money from their software. That's all we use at my company.
