When Contextual Ads Go Horribly Awry, Part 2

There's a God-awful smell of fecundity and rot permeating the basement, and it grows more noxious with each passing day. I called a plumber, and they graciously declined to come out and charge us for a visit, telling me that more often than not, these situations result from a decomposing dead animal stuck in the wall.

So, what to do when there's a dead, rotting animal stuck in the wall? I did what I usually do when in a perilous situation. I Googled. I Googled the phrase "dead animal in wall," and alongside links to helpful homeowner web forums and message boards, I saw the following ads:

I give you: "Dead Animals. Whatever you're looking for you can get it on eBay." Has eBay purchased every possible search phrase on Google? I wanted to Google "Decapitated Human Head," to see if an eBay ad promising to fulfill my e-commerce dreams would pop up, but I'm trying to avoid a visit from the Department of Homeland Security. And I have no comment regarding the "See Dead Animals" link, which I did NOT click on. "See Dead Animals. Big, dead animals. Fun to watch." Note the use of boldface type, judiciously reserved for the word "dead." Oops; I just commented.

That is so funny! (Not the dead animal in your wall... I mean the ads).

Did you know you can buy Aileen Wuornos on eBay?
