Bizarre Amazon Recommendations

I'm still waiting for Amazon to recommend me the now legendary Paul Ross box canvas print. To date, it has never happened. My life remains empty. :(

I have no idea who Paul Ross is, or why there's a print of him for sale on Amazon (much less why it costs 2500 pounds :eek:), but when I looked at that page, I got the following items under "people who viewed this item also viewed":

- a photographic print of a woman rejecting a plate
- German regular Nazi Party flag
- a chrome-plated toilet roll holder and storer
- the Mountain Men's "Three Wolf Moon" t-shirt
- a cardboard stand-up of David Cameron

:wtf: :confused: Is this one of those pages that's frequented by people who just randomly look for weird things on Amazon?

I saw the Nazi flag, three wolf moon shirt, and a book on Home Taxidermy, when I went to look at that item.
 
I didn't know Amazon.com had any feelings about the changes made in The Ultimates continuity. Or any feelings at all. And now I'm going to spend the rest of the day wondering if Amazon.com, furious that Starbuck became a chick in nuBSG will initiate global thermal nuclear war Terminator/Wargames style.
 
I had this recommendation...

Apparently they got up to naughtier things on the Island than we thought
 
Apparently, Amazon thinks that those who are interested in the TNG Next Level are also interested in the English Patient. Not sure what the connection is.

The recommendation I got for purchasing The Next Level was the 50th Anniversary Blu-Ray edition of Ben Hur.

Because people who like 1980s sci-fi TV series set 400 years in the future also would like 1950s epic movies set 2000 years in the past, right?
 
One time, I was shopping for law school textbooks and Amazon recommended engagement rings. I wasn't seeing anyone. But the really weird thing is that the rings that were recommended looked exactly like what I would want my engagement ring to look like. So apparently my taste in educational reading can predict my taste in jewelry.
