Dildos, lots of dildos! I'm just gonna repeat that while I'm driving to see if I start getting Google ads for dildos.

Hold on, I just tripped on another goddamn dildo, you don't wanna know where I fell.

If that works, you should try it with a product that you aren't interested in too and compare the results.

I've tried that, it didn't work....unfortunately.

I tried that. Didn’t work. There may be some filters so they don’t serve inappropriate ads to people with families or some such.
