          obvs i sound insane just talking about this and i get that. but it's just one (very recent) example of many that feels wildly coincidental.

          Could it be because you live in Montana? Just a thought.

          But couldn't it also be that you are in the demographic who would be interested? The ad campaign happened on the radio and online at the same time, and your first instinct is a conspiracy?
