What are the Trekbbs ads trying to sell to you?

[Catarina]

Trimble and Xeomin (some random company and a drug -- a purified choice for frown lines (so now ads are saying I frown too much? ))

Careful, your face will stick that way.

 

[Kor]

Some art institute called DkIT, and dates with Chinese and Eastern European women.

Kor

 

[Refuge]

Air Cons and a Graduate Diploma from Monash

 

[Pondwater]

Aroma therapy

 

[Random_Spock]

A hospital ad, square space and a black box (I kid you not -- the ad didn't fully load! -- guessing it might be an animated ad that just didn't work)

Just took a screen cap of it to load it on here.

Spoiler: since it's rather tall

 

[Butters]

We’re back to the mature lady, sat demurely on the grey IKEA sofa, glass of fizzy white wine in her hand, smiling dutifully, beneath the Lay Matures logo.

Last night, it was two pairs of leggings for £24.

 

[Kor]

Yogi-brand tea, and yet another dating service, this time with a cartoon woman on the ad. Yes, I really want to date cartoons.

If I want to attach an image, do I need some sort of image hosting thing? I looked in to this in 2001 and it seemed too much effort.

It’s still the lay matures advert. The girl is there so often I feel like I know her, like I should get her a birthday card and the like.

When I browse the forum at work, not logged in, the ads try to hook me up with some Asian lass, occasionally Muslim singles too.

Yes. The other option is to pay for a premium TrekBBS membership, which allows you to upload pics directly to the site to display in your posts (or something like that).

A fake cryptocurrency ad, Weebly and a furniture store ad

I just got a political add. Someone named Mick wants to be governor of Oklahoma. He couldn't be any worse than Mary Fallan.

[Butters]

Muslim aid, and my zakat.

 

[Spot261]

Ok, it's almost permanently trying to sell me "trouva" artificial flowers now, presumably an ironic consequence of searching so many gardening products

 

[Random_Spock]

A hospital ad, Squarespace and an ad for Beltone hearing aids (rather ironic since I'm listening to music! )

 

[Pondwater]

Rainbow themed Swimwear

 

[Kor]

Something called Apnic, thanking me for helping them measure the internet.... whatever that means.

Jake's Fireworks doesn't want want me to buy fireworks. They want me to help sell them and become a retailer! So anyone here what to buy some fireworks? When they explode don't think about it as losing a hand. Think about it as gaining a hook!

[Kor]

Some kind of Battlestar: Galactica thing which I assume is a game.

[Spot261]

Some art institute called DkIT, and dates with Chinese and Eastern European women.

Kor

Maybe you could take them to the art institute?

All-gay cruise.
