    BMW motorcycles that cost more than I paid for my car.

    And now they want me to buy a Ferrari SF90 Stradale Base. Only $799,998!

    I looked at some of the stuff on a horse rescue's Amazon wishlist a few weeks back, so now I'm getting nothing but ads for horse blankets and tack.

    Dear Amazon,

    I bought a toilet seat out of necessity. I do not currently have a need for another one. No matter how many ads you send me I will not think, "Eh, ok, I'll indulge myself just once more and buy another toilet seat."

    Thank you.


    :lol:

    Yeah, I find it annoying when I purchase something and then keep getting ads for the same thing, when obviously I don't need another one just yet.

    Currently I see an ad for "Your Bike At Superspeed" with a picture of a bicycle next to some logs. I took a look at the site, and they sell bicycle wheels that run from $1,399 to $3,599. While I occasionally enjoy cycling, it's only at a very casual level. The most expensive bike I've ever owned cost $130, with maybe $75 worth of mods on top of that.

    I think the worst is when you accidentally click on something you have no interest in, and it does the same thing to you.

    A Ferrari SF90, but a more tricked out one, I guess. List price, a bit under $980,000.00... more than I've got stuffed in my cookie jar.

    I wonder if the next car they put up there will be over a million.

    EDIT: $3,500,000.00 this time. I could buy a street full of houses with that kind of green.

    A $12,500 first edition Pokémon card. I like Blastoise, but I don't like it THAT much!

    Etsy banner at the top.

    To the right I have no idea what they're trying to sell. It's one of those clickbait boxes with an obviously fake headline, like saying a still-alive celebrity has died. In this case, it's saying Tom Selleck has left Blue Bloods.

    Sales on shoes I've already bought. Because of course I'd want another pair, why wouldn't I?

    Traditional German clothes for Oktoberfest. A little late, aren't they?
