Fun with the new targeted ads! And cheese?

Personally, I think that the new targeted ads are kind of cool! It might be fun just to add a bunch of odd words to your post, just to see if you can influence what kind of advertising shows up on the left.

Anyway, here's my attempt to make Anandtech show IMAX movie and cheese advertising.

I like movies. Lots and lots of movies! I like long movies, short movies, and big IMAX movies. If I could, I would make my own IMAX movie, and make it about gourmet cheese.

Odd, I got a bunch of CPU coolers and fans. What does this have to do with cheese?

Depends on what brand of CPU coolers & fans you're seeing ads for ultimatebob 😛
 
I like information technology and modems and NICs and ethernet - let's see if anyhting happens now.
 
I changed the topic of this post back to cheddar cheese. And IMAX movies. Lots of IMAX movies! So, what's the best IMAX movie?

Ok, I give up. I think that I'll quit now, before I tick off the mods.

Woah! I just saw a cheese ad! It works! 🙂

ROFL....I can't believe there was a cheese ad 😀

Yep! I just got an ad titled "Shop for gourmet cheeses". Man, someone could have fun with this if they used the right combination of words 😉
 
Perhaps the secret is to end it in a question mark? So, if you ask something like "What is the best kind of cheese?", the ad server will try to answer your cheese question for you.

I feel cheated that I can't see any ads. Are these really ads for cheese?
Yes there are cheese ads. I'm just waiting to see some IMAX ads. Where are my IMAX ads? I like IMAX movies, doesn't everyone like IMAX movies? 😉

What was funny was some other thread where someone mentioned toothpaste, and all these toothpaste ads appeared out of nowhere.. Who buys toothpaste on the intarweb?

Now.. cheese flavored toothpaste? That's an idea...
