So, I Cleared The Cookies On My Laptop Today...

[JimGinPA]

And a little while later I logged in to Facebook and the ads I normally see (taken directly from my browsing history) were all gone. As I'm scrolling down I ran across a video of a cute baby with a new hearing aid that was hearing it's mom's voice for the first time (I wish it would have been a YouTube video so I could have posted it here). When it was over I clicked the "like" button without realizing it was a sponsored link (I shouldn't have I guess, but hey, it was a cute baby!). I noticed a few minutes later that every 4th or 5th thing on my feed now are videos of cute babies doing cute (and some of them pretty funny) stuff. Long story short, I wasted a couple hours of my life watching videos of cute babies today. Anyway, as soon as I finally dragged myself away I got a call from my younger boy's wife and she told me she's pregnant with their first. How weird is that?!?

Congratulations! It's not weird, it's normal life.

Best wishes, JimGinPA.

Turning our wishes into 3D reality.

I want a million bucks without any monkey paw loopholes, I want a million bucks without any monkey paw loopholes, I want a million bucks...

9. I belong to an insect ID group

Although I don't frequent it much and don't like insects.

For some reason, FB decided I really really really liked the Insect Identification Group...

(I'm in a bunch of groups and I don't know if I've even responded to a post in the Insect ID Group and are ever posted in the Insect ID Group)

This went on for about a week...

11. I have a beef with them. They dropped my Walking Dead notifications.

I feel so slighted.

8. Synchronicity strikes again!

10. I cleaned the cookies off of my computer once...

...but then I had to clean off the beer cans and pizza boxes.

13. Way weird!

Is your punishment to be surrounded by cute little babies now? Or is it your reward?

[PatSeg]

14. That is so wild!

In a very good way of course!

15. You can clear cookies for individual sites

Just google how to for the browser you use. I also have Facebook's cookies set for 'session only', which clears the cookies when you close your browser.

16. Congratulations on your expected grandchild!

Last time I cleared all of my cookies, all of those Sexy Mature Ladies Want YOU! ads disappeared.

I thought you were going to say that a hearing aid salesman showed up at your door.
