Ad Distraction
My usual FB ads consist of wanting me to be pregnant or getting married or both, most likely. Today, however, I stumbled across a different set of ads meant to stir up some sort of deep longing.
There are four ads, really.
1) I like dresses. This one, I will let slide since I have recently been browsing a lot of shoes and I keep clicking on those damn shoe ads that pop up on the sides.
2) I don’t know if this means I should go listen to “Rich Dad” or that FB thinks I have children and am male. Both of which is slightly disturbing to me. The only part of this ad I can even relate to on the smallest of scales is the fact that this guy looks Asian. Is THAT why it’s there??
3) I have never been interested in energy bars or health foods or anything.. is FB telling me I am growing fat and that I should take a hint? If not, then whoever is paying these ad algorithm people should waste their money elsewhere. If so, then holy shit FB is getting really scary.
4) I guess I am still a student and I am in the SD area. I am, in fact, paying SDGE bills but I’ve never had a problem about it! I guess this ad is just boring and just thrown out there because it has the highest probability to relate to different FBers.
In any case, I should really be getting back to that paper I need to start writing. Sigh.
