Smurf Stuff? Really?

I guess I had better watch what I write about here, because it seems that Google AdSense thinks that it should serve up the following ads for my site based on my content:

:: ComputerGear: Fun computer key caps, panic button and computer-nerd-silly stuff here!
:: Incredible Hulk tees: Big Face and Green torso shirts. Youth and adult sizes to 2XL.
:: Complete Smurf Inventory: Smurf Characters, Houses, Vehicles Playscapes, and Musical Smurfs.
:: Hulk: Find Movies, DVDs & More. Shop on eBay!

Wow. Smurf Inventory. And I freakin’ hate the smurfs, other than that Anne Nicole Smith Smurf parody they did a few months ago on Saturday Night Live. That was priceless.

I blame it all on my comments from the other day about the Hulk Hands – which I still think are goofy looking, and the commercial is lame.

My site is assigned a bunch of blogging ads. Photoblogging, Moblogging, and the old reliable Webloging.

Interesting. I want smurf stuff or maybe something about juice.

I got stuff for the Peace Corps, American Red Cross, and Habitat for Humanity. I think it’s due to my latest protestor/hungersite.com rant.

Google AdSense ads won’t run on personal sites… and they decide whether yours is a personal site or not based on something they call the SmurfIndex™. Interesting coincidence, huh?

For my site, I would be hawking ads for broadway posters, a blogging UK company, Traction Software, and audio blogging.

i’m kinda bummed that all i was assigned was blogging ads too… i figured there’d be at least some porn on there, like those MILFHunter.com ads or something.

blogging ads, pshaw. like my blog would inspire anyone else to blog!

That’s funny – mine came up with pet products and vitamins!

Shopping – all womens clothes, but as my sister says.. for the chunky chic section, and that’s me!!!

I totally loved that Anna Nicole spoof! *HAD* to Tivo the entire show just for that one bit.

Try Before You Sell
Curious what ads Google AdSense would put on your site? Google Weblog has provided a mechanism to preview the ads you would be getting on your site. TooMuchSexy.blog would sell NYTimes subscriptions, Traction Blog software and blog software for buisnes…

Ad senseless
Something I wonder about all the time: What ads would Google serve on my site, if Google served ads on my site. Well, now, thanks to the Google Weblog (not…
