Lolol. So far I've been getting bank ads, and clothing ads (I see Lands' End as I type this). But this morning I came to the board and right at the top is an ad for Runescape! This is an online game I play. But, it's not one of the "big name" ones (like WoW or Legends or Skyrim, etc.) that might have "accidentally" shown up on my page. It's definitely a lower-tier game (although don't tell the company Jagex that ) yet here's the ad.
How does that work? Pretty funny.
(and yes, I understand in vague terms about how ads appear on pages...and yes I know that some people don't like it because it's like we're being "tracked"... but I still think it's funny.)
Now I'm going to go google for some specific things, like "shoes" or "Harry Potter" or "Africa" and see what ads that gets me. lol

Mine has been for CASA which I have been thinking of getting involved in. But I have never searched for anything about it. Maybe they have learned to mind read!

At the risk of getting Runescape ads of my own, my kid plays. He has played off and on for years.

Tell him I'm *this* close to getting 99 crafting (my latest goal). Now interestingly enough, I'm getting an ad for the World Wildlife Fund which happens to be a promotion that Runescape is running right now (answer certain questions correctly each day and in the end you'll get a pet rhino).
