I Can't Take It Anymore!!

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

Normally, I am a mild mannered person, content to make few waves in life, but I finally have to speak up. I am being harassed by an ad here on DK and I need to make it stop.  Is there a restraining order needed to keep this ad away from me?  This is serious. Every time this ad comes up, I feel sick.  I wish I could say I have stopped eating, but that is not the case. I just have to shut my computer first now. What is this ad, you might ask?  It is for NAIL FUNGUS. YUCK!

I do not have nail fungus, have never had nail fungus, have never searched Google for nail fungus, and I don't take pictures of nail fungus. I am almost afraid to add a picture for fear Google will forever associate me with nail fungus and by trying to stop these ads, I will just get more.

I do admit to big feet and I have posted pictures of them before, but they were covered AND not in nail fungus.

So, I implore you, please DO NOT speak of nail fungus to me. Do not send me funny emails about nail fungus. No pictures of your nail fungus (Sheila and Finnley-LOL). My health depends on it.

Now, who do I need to talk to to get this toe stuff straightened out? Uh oh, now I am going to get ads for hammer toes...and I may or may not have those....although, I accidentally told my DD and SIL that the Podiatrist said I had 9 camel toes. After an unexpected reaction by them and John, who was nearby when I said it, I realized I misstated my condition.  It was almost as bad as the time I told John gonorrhea ran in my family, when I meant to say glaucoma. Oh no....now what kind of ads am I going to get? I seem to be digging a hole. Me and my big mouth!

LOL!

Jarka, That's not much help :) LOL

Haha - I am with you on the nail fungus thing!  When that ad comes on tv, I have to get up and leave the room.  It is just YUCK!  Right now my ads are "24/7 - 50% off all jewelry and Seattle Opera - Buy Tickets Now!  I can deal with that!

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

LOL....I wouldn't mind the jewelry ads :)

[Katie & Roo]

Oh no - it's retargeting you :/ Try not to type anything into a search engine related to nails or fungus or even articles that may be related. Hopefully it will stop targeting you eventually!! 

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

I know....and this discussion probably made it worse :)

[Nicky, Riley & Boris]

Because you wrote N--- F----s loads of times it's bound to haunt you I'm afraid. Block all adds by using ghostery. It's an add on and and then you can unblock if you need or pause. I've used it for over a year. Good luck.

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

Thanks, Nicky. I am my own worst enemy :) I am going to try out ghostery. I hope it helps.

[Katie & Roo]

Haha - that's an advertisers worst nightmare. I work for an ad agency and we place digital ads pretty often for our clients. I promise my client isn't the that advertiser though :)

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

Katie, I hope you are not using those NF ads....see now, I am afraid to even type it :)

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

I'd love to type erectile dysfunction the name of a certain disorder here, just to see what kind of ads that generates, but I would never do that to you, Laurie. 

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

LOL....I wonder if there would be pictures like there are with the NF ads?
