I'll look for something obscure (a part to a gas fireplace, for instance), and then ads for that item will show up on any number of sites I later visit. My guess is that someone searched for…"

Rebekah replied to Benjamin Wagner's discussion I am so confused."Actually, it's a continuous-release application that must be removed after 3 weeks and replaced with another a week later. After those 3 weeks, there's 0 to minimal medication being provided. It's just an intimate accessory."
Rebekah replied to Benjamin Wagner's discussion I am so confused."Even I don't get that one, but I see this is from before my time on AoM."
Arthur replied to Benjamin Wagner's discussion Christmas Presents: The duds"Put an end to bad presents and a spending cap on xmas this way: Each year the adults in the family chip in for a donation to a charity and each year we pick a person to select the charity.

Travis A. Young replied to Benjamin Wagner's discussion Hair product?"High Life. They make a bunch of different holds.
