A couple days ago I innocently included a picture of a shopping cart in one of my blogs and tagged the post with “granny cart” among other things. Well ever since then I have been followed–nay stalked–by granny cart ads.
These granny cart ads follow me around the Net like stray puppies. Popping up everywhere, whining for my attention. These screenshots are just two of the latest sightings.
For the record I love my granny cart. As a carless city dweller I couldn’t survive without it. With our jumbo heavy duty cart, that looks very much like the picture up there, I can if called for bring home three cases of soda and a week’s worth of groceries.
Update:Â I totally meant to include this video for your viewing enjoyment and totally blanked on it. So here it is now.
Enjoy!…










That’s frightening. I thought those smart ads only knew what text was on your open page! But you’re saying it knows what you typed in a post days ago…it knows…
Hm. Maybe you had another window open?
I need a granny cart. I would put a granny in there! Preferably NSFW granny-against-sex-offense-facebooking granny.
Oh you probably don’t know. I have major window-closing issues. At any one time I conservatively have open a dozen or more. In fact I will count what I have open at this moment..one sec…35 plus Tweetdeck and a Citrix connection for work mail. Yes 35. That is not a typo.
Yeah, I know, I have issues. I should be a tester for system and software limits. I am guessing that somewhere in those 35 windows is a Google session in which I searched for granny cart pics. I think I need an intervention.
Actual granny in a cart….I love it! We could have Granny in a granny cart races. Choose your cart, choose your Granny and go!
But then again maybe it DOES just know….eeekkkk!
Mine would be well-coached with appropriate phrases. “Because I happen to LOVE YOU!!”
If I were more clever this totally would turn into an award-winning short film.
You just need a fricken’ STARMAKING TURN from some unknown, come-out-of-nowhere granny.
