Ah Facebook, you provide almost as much entertainment as the KKKluckers at Korean Sentry. I don't usually waste my time looking at the right side of my main Facebook page. It is where they stuff ads.
For some reason I glanced at it today and had to chuckle. Out of 7 ads 5 of them were for some kind of dating site. The one I found the most insulting yet funny was one for seniorpeoplemeet.com.
Evidently, Facebook considers someone in their mid 40's to be a senior. Add to that the fact you are single and BINGO, perfect target for a site to help oldsters hook up with youngsters or other oldsters. That is what happens when Facebook trolls your information to use for targeted advertising.
I remember a friend complaining about being banned from sending friend requests a year or so ago. The message Facebook sent him contained something about Facebook not being used as a site for finding dates. Of course that doesn't apply to Facebook forcing ads for dating sites on you.
Thanks Facebook. Keep up the bad work. :)

I get the same fucking ads. Not ads for fucking, but... well, you know.

Anyway, the ones that kill me are for dating sites with the headline "No men under 40 allowed." Accompanied by a picture of some big-breasted bimbo. as if some hottie'd settle for a fat, bald old man like me.
I hear you. I love how Facebook refers to them as "sponsors" and not advertisers.
