What is the most memorable/strange targeted AD you've gotten online? - eviltoast

Recently I keep seeing suggested/ads for things making fun of electric vehicles.

My favorite car I ever owned was a nissan leaf, and right now I have an electric scooter, so not sure what I did to get on list of “people who hate electric vehicles” and why that’s even a list.

    Back in the day, my shaver broke so I looked online for a new one. Bought one, and afterwards I had ads for nothing but electric shavers. It was so friggin bizarre, like reading some random article and getting 6 ads for shavers. That’s when I finally started using adblock.

      I don’t understand the logic of that for long term products! Like maybe do it for 2 weeks after you first search, and then maybe 3 years later.

      Like, how can that possibly work?
