All it does is scan the words in the e-mail and displays ads related to it. It's not that amazing. It does exactly the same thing for any other e-mail you open.
Psh, she broke up with you through an email? Thats pretty disrespectful, she could be lying her ass off and you wouldn't be able to tell. The only respectable way to break up with somebody is in person, or at worst over the phone. It forces you to be more honest
how is this on front page, ITS NOT FUNNY. Google just searches the email for keywords, she probably said relationship in the email. HOW DOES THIS MAKE FRONT PAGE.
I love it! You know, someone should do a fake letter about murdering their significant other and see what kind of helpful links Google provides. :-))))
I had a terrible break up with my previous girlfriend, and about a month later she emails me to apologize for it and says she wants to be friends and all. I read the sappy email then look to the right at the adds. The first add said, in bold, TALK IS CHEAP.
Yep, I had the same thing happen when my wife e-mailed me that she was leaving me. I thought it was so funny that I printed it out and showed it to her the next time I saw her. It was good to have something to chuckle about during an otherwise...awkward...conversation.
I am writing to inform you that your services as my lover will no longer be needed. I find myself in financial ruin since hiring you as my boy toy and I am afraid that I can no longer afford your dark-tanned, well oiled, ripped muscle body laying next to mine. I hope there will be no hard fellings and I have forwarded your name, phone number, resume and references to all of my widow friends, surely one of them will be able to afford your services.
With Best Regards,
Horny House Wife"
When I received it in my gmail account I got the following ad:
"Tired of paying all the time for companionship? Then you need the Real Doll!"
Upon seeing the ad I decided to do something I have never done before.....by one (from an online ad)....actually I bought two....One female, red head with dark tanned skin, 38CCC breasts and Jenna Jameson modeled puss.....the other is a latin looking guy with a 14" banana (so I don't have to bang the next widow if she is ugly and old....I can just loan her the male REAL DOLL>
Reminds me of the time I emailed a detailed list of my computer's specifications, and the Gmail ads were basically all saying "Cheap computers" "Gaming on a budget" "Low cost upgrades" "Need a new computer?" etc
And I thought I had a pretty decent computer at the time...ah well.
Amazing for several reasons
1) You have 174 spam emails... I havent had one, my email is pasted everywhere *dang*
2) Isn't it amazing that Gmail finds keywords in your emails and then gives related adverts ?
I bet the subject was something like "This is where our relationship is now"
I just realized while looking at this that I have never once paid attention to any of the ads that pop up around my Gmail account. I'll have to start looking to see what Google is suggesting.
Speakin of ex's.. This story got dugg back in august... Man, what a crazy chick.. reading the comments is the best part cuz she gets in on it....
(there's a follow up post on the page a number of days later where she shows up again...)
