I mostly get ads for stuff I've researched online; anything I buy for the house, kitchen, or simply tools for business, I make sure is "Buy It For Life" quality

Targeted ads are hilarious. Yes, Google, I did. I did just buy a pair of Knipex Cobra pipe grips. That will be the last time ever I buy them, and they will still be hanging around a secondhand shop 150 years after I've turned to fuckin dust. The advert for Shungong Best Grip is a fuckin waste of electrons
