        I like the idea of herding ads as a game. Take it to the next meta level. Try to get your top adds served to be themed.

        Slightly apropos: I love that it would cost you $29000 to look like a poorly done rainbow cosplay of Yzma from Emperor's New Groove...

        I love the shit out of that dress. Then I realize the money a person would spend on it could literally save about 150 shelter dogs.

        I have been housesitting in a different state for a few weeks. My ads changed based on my modem connection location. FREAKING CREEPY.

        Encouraging inappropriate ads is so much fun. Had this pissed of young pottery aficionado in my facebook timeline a while ago. Made my day.pic.twitter.com/8HOlehZKZc

        If you can get 3 ads on your page to be a dominant pre-chosen color in the next 2 weeks, I'll donate $25 to a charity of your choice
