Re: offensive ad.
There was once an ad that popped up in a thread that discussed Ryan Freel, that used the word "Hustle". The ads were text only ads for Hustler magazine subscriptions.

I can see people thinking that I'm a pervert, but Marc getting the ad proves my innocence

Re: offensive ad.
Getting ads for Jillian Michaels weight loss programs now. So I guess Redszone is calling me fat?

I also get linguistic advertisements.

(Completely obsessed with the ad generators now.)

This one offended me, because it kind of stings to have google ads tell me that I'm old

I just got that ad. My wife tells me I'm old everyday now I have ads doing the same thing.

On the good part I saw an ad for BCubbs book.

I understand, but if someone doesn't want to see these ads, they can always DL the extension.

Re: offensive ad.
For what it's worth, I actually got a sweet deal by clicking on an ad for a free dining plan at Walt Disney World for my wife and I's anniversary trip this November!

I think it's possible dating ads are one of the default ads that googleads and others use. I have seen ads like that immediately after I clear my browsing history.

I just got an ad for heartburn medication featuring Larry the Cable Guy. Nothing reminds me of heartburn more than watching one of his movies.
