Facebook Ads: Come Clean Like Sheen

Another Facebook sidebar ad. Usually the mugshots used in this series are of disheveled, normal looking people. Not sure where they got this one (mugshots_R_us, perhaps?) but I'm sure noted Canadian criminal Charlie Sheen is happy to know he can easily get his record cleared. In Canada.

Facebook asks a question for which I have no answer

More weirdness in my sidebar, but at least this time there's no Jesus.

Facebook image recognition software works its magic again. The Dorothy Parker quote was just icing on the cake.

Facebooze

A bit of ad farming on Facebook resulted in 25 different advertisements for alcohol in one month. Drink up!

 

ETA: speaking of Facebooze, here is a genius bottle design from Helsinki, complete with "like" and "unlike" glasses. “Facebooze helps you disconnect from social media and share with the people in your life”.

My Friend Facebook

Lately a lot of horse ads are showing up in my Facebook sidebar, with captions like "Create your Dream Horse", "Pony for Free!" and "Horseproblems Australia". Ok, I live in Calgary, which has a culture much like a large Texas city, so maybe the advertisers assume that as a female living in cowboy country, I'm obsessed with horses.

And for once, they're absolutely right.

Woman or White-Tailed Deer? Dress

A curious offering from Urban Outfitters. At least it's not a barf dress.

Facebook Recognition Software part one

Found in the newsfeed.

It's a whole lot prettier than feet as meat, though. Or Tor Johnson.
