    Could it just be Google ads just got it wrong?

    I get spam for stuff I obviously can't use, for instance.

    Yeah, like the penis extension stuff. I mean, really, if it gets any bigger, where am I going to put it? I'll have to move to a bigger house.

    Being on the Internet without Adblock Plus is a horrible way to go through life.

    I have a couple thoughts:
    1. It's possible that Mariah's PR people paid Google to have her advertisements blasted across the internet regardless of the person's previous interest profile.

    2. Perhaps you need some Mariahmine.
