Now it wants to sell me a T-shirt with a picture of a black cat wearing a surgical mask.

I once got an ad saying you can download and play Animal Crossing: New Horizons on your Windows for free. That totally isn't suspicious.

For some reason, when I use TV Tropes on non-PC browsers (like on consoles or on mobile) I keep getting Amazon ads from 2008/2009, selling me "brand new" stuff like a PS 3 slim or Mario Kart Wii.

Number one fan of characters that appear only once and ultimately were a recurring character either in disguise or trying a new image.

I'm getting some ad about how Jesus didnt exercise. Probably because he had more important things to do like, you know, be the Messiah.

That one actually sounds nicer than the one I get when I play Best Fiends. tongue The one with the dubious weight loss supplement.

I like to keep my audience riveted.

Maybe if Jesus did some weight lifting he wouldn't have gotten nailed to the cross. Just a thought.

The adserver would apparently like me to buy virus protection for my business. I can only assume this is a racket and if I don't buy it they'll send me a virus.

Adserver is trying to sell me kittens. Or get me to adopt kittens.

adserver gave an ad saying "why Jesus didn't exercise"

and the public won't dwell on my transmission cause it wasn't televised.

Back when I didn’t have ad-blocker I would get ads for this weird hentai anime mobile game that I can only assume linked to a virus where you, from what I could tell, ostensibly owned anime girls and could increase the size of their... assets both upper and lower to your hearts content. I think. It was very unclear. Also their main marketing strategy was to tell you not to let people know you were playing it which just serves to accentuate how weird it was and made sure that if it was a virus you wouldn’t tell anyone because that would require you to admit you clicked the ad.

I think it slipped past the censors because there wasn’t any actual nudity in the ads.

I keep getting ads for Genshin Impact and this digital manga service called "Renta!".

I'm not THAT much of an otaku...

I’ve seen ads for that second one and I guarantee you it’s probably Hentai.

I have got ads on this site multiple times for...gliding compounds. No idea what it really is in norwegian, but it said gynecologicaly tested if ya want more hints on how inappropriate it is.

I just saw an add for one of this weird web manga things that had the tag line, and I quote,

"His biggest desire is to find his perfect top."
