What are the Trekbbs ads trying to sell to you?

Four of the ugliest dresses I've ever seen and one object that I think is some sort of article of clothing but I honestly can't even tell what it's supposed to be
 
A charitable cause I alteady donate to. And the apartment complex I already live in (yes, it's back).
 
Ebay ad at the top, Cloudsurfer2® shoe ad on the right, paper towel dispenser at the bottom from WypAll® Wipes.
 
ebay ads, top of page, bottom of page and middle of page. Right side of page, a shoe called the Cloudswift 4
 
Genuine remanufactured used car engines (as opposed to fake, my cars all currently have used engines in them) from Motofork Auto Parts. Four items pictured from Eco-Cool, only one is clearly identified as a "Soft Start user manual" for 165 USD. Windstar cruise to Tahiti from Los Angeles. An ad for Adobe Learning Manager.
 
A Lego Twilight Cullen house.

That's what Lego chooses to spend it's licensing budget on? Twilight?
They spent a while trying to get me to buy that as well.
I never saw teen girls as heavy Lego users. Legos are more a preteen boys' thing.
Teen girl here, the only thing Lego I have ever bought was a Little Shop of Horrors Lego set, but that's just because I have a bit of an obsession with Little Shop of Horrors and not because I care anything about Lego. lol

Anyway, TBBS ads are trying to sell me even more ugly clothes, one of which is a dress that has very obviously been Photoshopped onto the wearer in the ad.

I worked with gobs of teen girls as a moderator on a Harry Potter shipper's fansite. They discussed Twilight quite a lot. I actually read Book 1, in part out of curiosity and in part as a "screw you" to one of the site's more annoying members, who liked to dis the books.

It wasn't bad, but I had little inclination to read the other three.

And I'm being offered prom dresses. Despite being 35 years too old for prom, and the wrong gender for dresses (biological, physical, OR identified).
 
I turned off my VPN, and I'm being offered cars from a local to me KIA dealer. Also, an ad for ECU, in the ad they claim to be "North Carolina's Largest College of Business". I'm rapidly closing on 68, retired, and not interested in being a Business College student 4,000 Km away.
