Oh, I can’t even explain this one other than to say “That’s how the Internet works!” Anyway, as you probably know, even doing the simplest search for anything online these days becomes a complete loss of privacy (you thought I was going to say waste of time, I bet) as your search is fed to any and every other site or info-gathering robot connected to whatever you typed in and magically (and very often, mistakenly) added to some magic queue that pops up as a potential search the next time you visit tht site or poke around other sites.

Or worse, those words are also used to add search results that can show up as unsolicited non-spam emails (from big companies that want your disposable income in trade for their goods) asking you to buy stuff you don’t want and/or even turn up as ads all over every page you click on. So you can’t get away from that ONE ad until you replace it with other searches. Even if you limit the amount of tracking going on (ha and ha, good luck with that), you’re STILL going to be suggested at some point to point that browser to a site for something you may not have even typed in. Or related to anything you typed in the first place. Bleh…

Anyway, I’m poking around Amazon today looking up release dates for some games I want to buy and now I see there’s now a “suggested” listing for Fresh Whole Rabbit on my main page (I won’t submit you to that link in case you’re easily upset, vegan and/or don’t want Amazon to “A-ha!” you with more suggestions on your page there like pheasant liver saucisson or whatever). O…K, now…WHAT? Hmmm. let’s see now…I haven’t eaten rabbit as far as I recall, but I’m also not someone who owns one as a cute and cuddly pet  (or a pet to meat hybrid deal, for that matter). I also don’t recall searching for rabbit anything on Amazon. Still, I was curious and needed a laugh, so I clicked away just to see what sort of reviews get written for an obviously controversial product. Again, no links here, but it made for a few minutes of chuckles on this end, that’s for sure.

Let’s just say there are a lot of really funny people out there and Amazon’s rather stupid rating system doesn’t seem to be regulated so many of the “reviews” are gag posts of assorted lengths and tone. On a side note… I did find a nice recipe for rabbit in chocolate sauce (don’t click that unless you want to see it) thanks to chocolate Easter bunnies being advertised on the page below the dead bun-bun that made me laugh before wondering if there actually was a recipe that combined the two items. Well, you DO indeed learn something new every day, I suppose. I more than likely won’t be cooking up any rabbit any time soon, but man… I’ll kill a big basket of chocolate bunnies right in front of you while you watch.

You can keep the Peeps (yuk!)
