Don’t Hold Back, Tell Us How You Really Feel About Elvis

Last week, I posted a picture of Elvis to which I digitally gave him a black-eye. This was in response to Michelle’s post, expressing her love for Elvis.

Google expressed their opinion of Elvis too.

As you know, when you use AdSense on your site, Google AdSense scans your content and places relevant ads alongside that content.

So, when they scanned my post with Elvis, what did they determine to be the relevant ad for that content? See for yourself:

Elvis & Google AdSense’s Opinion

You just can’t make this stuff up! (And I didn’t!)

Don’t be cruel, Google, don’t be cruel!

I guess it could have been worse; it could have been an ad for rehab ;)

Google picks on everyone… so I am not surprised. Ask your buddy John Chow what page he’s on in Google search. The fact that Elvis is not the King in Google’s eyes- solidifies my opinion that they are run by an evil syndicate. Post a picture of Jesus- Google will probably slam him too.

Google says (ala John Lennon), “we’re bigger then Jesus.”

I forgot about your question “How do I really feel about Elvis?”

I like to feel Elvis all the time- thank you.

OMG that is so wrong. Poor Elvis all he seems to be remembered for is his massive wait gain in teh end. :(

Hey Dan, I’ve got some Google ads that have come up on Brain (dis)Trust that will be posted soon. Both of them will likely offend someone, so it should be loads of fun.

[...] feed. Thanks for visiting!Recently, my buddy Dan at dcrBlogs posted about Elvis and the sometimes out-of-context ads placed by Google. It’s funny because I’ve had two instances in the same week where [...]
