- ductions, on 09/04/2008, -1/+11720 and still single?
yes thank you facebook for making me feel even better about my situation - diggleague, on 09/03/2008, -2/+102One of the greatest preview pictures ever.
- dead777, on 09/03/2008, -1/+99Muffin top sounds better than, chick with roll of fat pouring out of her too tight pants.
- inactive, on 09/04/2008, -3/+94Omg, hotmail keeps telling me I'm impotent and have a small penis!
Not everything is about you. - benjaminbr, on 09/03/2008, -7/+87Ad block is your friend. Not only will it block the increasingly idiotic ads, you're actually saving the environment by preventing your computer from running power hungry flash.
- Praelior, on 09/04/2008, -1/+77Facebook ads are VERY annoying. If you put "single" as your relationship status, you will be FLOODED with "Are you XX years old and single?" ads on every page.
The most absurd one I constantly get is "Looking for a girl who plays WOW?"
Cmon Facebook... seriously. - Ceaser57, on 09/04/2008, -0/+56Vote up if you can't remember the last time you saw an ad
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/186 ... - Ryan2845, on 09/04/2008, -1/+49Maybe facebook knows something you don't? Otherwise you probably need to take coldplay out of your music interests
- Bigcolby, on 09/04/2008, -2/+38good to see the Washing Post is focusing on real news for a change
- SneakyNinja, on 09/04/2008, -5/+39Adblock FTW.
- inactive, on 09/04/2008, -0/+33"20 and single!? CLICK HERE TO FIND A GIRLFRIEND YOU LOSER"
:( - DrDragun, on 09/04/2008, -0/+29Attack her emotionally weak points for massive damage!
- OfNumbers, on 09/04/2008, -3/+25Yeah? And porno pages push ***** pumps and extension pills. It's called suggestive marketing. For example, Digg believes its user base to be, say, 75% 13-20 year olds. So there's a lot of army, videogame and sexually suggestive marketing here. Don't be mad because you're insecure and a website somehow is at fault for it.
- daeus, on 09/04/2008, -0/+22Yup, I've even started getting Gay website ads now I've been single for a few months...(I put straight on my profile).
- Memnochxx, on 09/04/2008, -0/+21...you mean making money?
- sgtbutterscotch, on 09/04/2008, -0/+20And if you say you're interested in women, you still get ads for gay men.
- abarysh2, on 09/04/2008, -1/+20I liked it when I kept getting Victoria Secret ads. At least I had hot models to look at instead of someone's fat ass.
- Doktag, on 09/04/2008, -0/+18Err... how does Facebook waste time (apart from my own) and money by displaying ads?
- micro23, on 09/04/2008, -13/+30If face-book hadn't called you fat I'm sure we would be hearing a blog about "the box of cereal that called you fat"
If you have a muffin top, you have a muffin top. You dont need face-book to tell you. Do something about it and stop complaining, we already knew you had some extra dough in the pants. - slayersotaku, on 09/04/2008, -0/+17/removes coldplay from music interests
- AndrewJC, on 09/04/2008, -3/+19Facebook has ads? :)
- sooner314, on 09/04/2008, -0/+16I had the exact same problem. I use the EasyList filter on ABP and the "text ads" on Facebook were getting through. I subscribed to a second list from the same person called EasyElement and I no longer see those ads. Hope this helps!
- WhiskeyLemur, on 06/30/2009, -1/+16Facebook knows best.
- Coffeedemon, on 09/04/2008, -0/+15Yeah... I get them since the dreaded status change. Mine are worse - they say 34 in front of them. It'd be fine if they were planning on shipping over the 18 yr old in the pic (since they likely know my address too).
- JonTheGoose, on 09/04/2008, -1/+15I'd butter that muffin.
- jayb1rd, on 09/04/2008, -0/+13And muffins are delicious.
- Oztog, on 09/04/2008, -2/+15That would suck for her if she was anorexic/bulimic
- TRScheel, on 09/04/2008, -0/+13Your looking for says straight but your favorite music says gay
- springboks, on 09/04/2008, -3/+15Despite using ABP (Ad Block Plus) on FireFox. Facebook ads somehow manage to sneak through. How is that?
Facebook ads are not only targetted ads, but they also have a one click thumbs up, thumbs down rating system. Clever, they're really surveying their audience to keep up with trends. - wrillo, on 09/04/2008, -0/+12at least you weren't getting gay singles ads
- hiro, on 09/04/2008, -0/+12Thanks, that's been bugging me for ages and 10 secs work has sorted it.
Top man, if I could digg you up 10 times I would! - natecope, on 09/04/2008, -0/+12You can't be serious...
- mcdougan, on 09/04/2008, -4/+14Man this girl has some serious issues if facebook ads upset her so much. I cant wait to deal with people like this on a daily basis paying off grad school bills with their depression
- JesusHimself, on 09/04/2008, -0/+10For those to lazy to use the google http://easylist.adblockplus.org/
- MrSteamTank, on 09/04/2008, -0/+10Man, I feel sorry for you. Hotmail tells me my penis is huge on a daily basis.
- crownedgriffin, on 09/04/2008, -2/+11I wouldn't know what ads are trying to be sent to me. I block the stupid things.
- jcharak58, on 09/04/2008, -0/+8But that's because one of your interests are 'Victoria Secret models'
- brettg102, on 09/04/2008, -0/+8Why is Firefox not distributed with it pre-installed? I cannot stand using a non-Adblock browser.
- WhiskeyLemur, on 06/30/2009, -0/+8I'm just gonna go with "yes" because the alternative is to curl up in the corner with a bottle of cheap whiskey and cry over the collective brain-death of humanity.
- vocalyouth, on 09/04/2008, -0/+7It's better than the "24 and still single?" I get.
- malechite, on 09/04/2008, -0/+7"How to win his heart", and "Why he leaves" ...i've seen them, and i'm a guy whose facebook profile says hes straight and single
- DreKor, on 09/04/2008, -0/+7People really don't understand the Internet. She was upset about the ads, which are generated based on page content, so she started filling up her status with the very key words that were working against her. God, I love technology.
- krets, on 09/04/2008, -1/+8I was thinking the same thing.
- omar199, on 09/04/2008, -1/+8It's so much easier for digg. 95% of the ads are for dating services, telling me to "flirt"
- derkles, on 09/04/2008, -4/+10Muffin Top, youll always be
Home sweet home to me.
Good ole Muffin Top,
Muffin Top Tennessee, Muffin Top Tennessee. - DreKor, on 09/04/2008, -0/+6Even if humanity is smart, could i still do the whiskey thing?
- WhiskeyLemur, on 06/30/2009, -0/+6'The most absurd one I constantly get is "Looking for a girl who plays WOW?" '
So what happens if you click on it? Do you get a "ha-ha!" or a "dream on"? ;) - inactive, on 09/04/2008, -0/+5they dont have to, most of the morons using facebook give there dimensions out. when you tell facebook your height is 4'6 and you way 240 pounds, its in a database. Im sure they can target advertise your fat ass.
- Guitarist970, on 09/04/2008, -1/+6They actually time how long you've been in a relationship too. I was with my last girlfriend for almost 3 years, and it was "facebook official" since we were both in college. About year 2 it started advertising engagement rings on both of our facebook pages.
