One of the Google ads directs you to "Google Chrome: Clear all of your browsing history and protect your privacy." It's as helpful as a pop-up window advertising a service to get rid of pop-ups.

I do get a variety of ads in Italian though, which may or may not have anything to do with weddings and/or babies. Here's an example. I just wish I knew what 'Hotel' meant in Italian.

I'm just saying let's hope it doesn't, but that after a six-hour reception I ain't making any promises. I'm a lady! Gill, I get the baby ads constantly. Facebook and Google are attempting to contribute to my moral demise. Oh, and ruin my life. Hahaha…I’m not saying it won’t come to that.

We have the Swiss to blame for this; actually the Swiss and the French. I blame the French more. You could use some kind of mail program and that way you would be able to bypass all the mumbo jumbo ads and stuff. Good luck!

The ad vultures are definitely circling over all the stuff you'll have to buy for the wedding. Google isn't perfect, though; if they knew you and Brian, they'd be serving up ads for R&R, Captain Morgan, etc. Unfortunately, you’re a gold mine!
