What are the Trekbbs ads trying to sell to you?

No activity here lately? :sigh:

Well, today I'm getting ads for counterfeit Rolex watches that cost $300 instead of $9,000. I admit that a while back I was looking into that sort of thing for, um, research purposes. But it never occurred to me that this site's ad provider might somehow pick up on that and show me this stuff weeks later. :lol:

I hate bad marketing on the internet.

It's like all those emails I get. "Mogh, would you like a penis enlargement?", "Mr Mogh, get a bigger penis here".

It's just poor data and bad targeting of your market. If they could get it right and send "Mogh, maybe take a few inches off?" I might be a potential buyer :shrug:

Which of Mogh’s penises?
 
TEMU's offering me some cool stuff, but not letting me even look at it unless I download their app.

My autocorrect changed it to "Trump", and I didn't notice. But I'm also getting stuff about supporting the Orange One. Which is ironic, since he's the reason I abandoned the Republican party.

Some piece of equipment I don't recognize. I clicked on it, and it's a refrigerant recovery machine. You can't buy it from their website, though. You have to look up distributors/retailers in your area.

Temu is still trying to sell me naughty
netherthings. Neither would I fit in them, nor would I look good in them.

Are you sure that's what they are? Once you look closely, they appears to be mundane items deliberately selected because they resemble X-rated objects. I think it's their marketing strategy?
