Funny Adsense matching irrelevancy

    I have been seeing some Anger Management and Online Therapy ads on some pages of my hockey site. It's kind of funny since hockey is a sport where you don't get mad, you get even. Drop your gloves, fight, sit in penalty box. That's therapy enough.

    It reminds me of the early days of Adsense when a newspaper site had a story about a murder and the killer cut up the remains of the victim and hauled it away in suitcase. You guessed it, the ads were for Ginsu Knives and Samsonite luguage. Hope no one was inspired! :eek:

    Have you seen any humorous ad irrelevancy?

    I hardly ever see irrelevant ads, but I've got some really funny relevant ads showing right now.

    I recommended (two days) ago deodorant for body odor. Now I can't get rid of a feminine odor removed -- and the ad is quite graphic in wording. Yeeesh.

    dadasays, are you referring to this one? I've seen it elsewhere, and I would think it shouldn't be out on the content network.
