    Bollox! You've been searching 'BBW sluts' on youpron! If you're going to lie about software, don't do it on an IT Contractors site!

    I get ads for local sluts.

    They won't sleep with me either.
    Try searching exotic sluts instead.

    Exercise more and eat a bit less. Those adverts aren't random you know!

    You're not the only one - Conservative MP Gavin Barwell in 'date Arab girls' Twitter gaffe | Metro News

    A Conservative MP has been left red-faced after a plan to expose Labour for making money off a ‘date Arab girls’ link backfired and revealed it was actually a targeted advert for his computer.

    This one seems more insidious than those Minority Report type ads. Furthermore, I've never been interested in slimming.

    May have visited a few sites involving thongs though
