I was scrolling down this thread to get to the bottom and make my post and I saw this ad TWICE on the same page. I went to upload it on ImgBB, and I saw the ad there too. Why is this everywhere? Is this some national health crisis all of a sudden?

It reminds me of this, which still makes me chuckle:

I had a facebook friend who must have scoured the net and subscribed to every single site with memes like this. I should have downloaded memes from her feed and asked her sources before I got off facebook. The "Low on cyan" one is great if you want to google that.

The sites you are seeing the earwax ads on aren't all taking money from Big Earwax, they just use the same ad providers. Something in your browsing history is making the ad algorithms think you may be in the market for wax removal.

I didn't reply to CHL's post because I assumed everyone else was getting these ads.

I too am seeing this ad pretty much everywhere today and on every page of this site no matter how I'm getting here (phone/laptop/desktop).

I apologize for implicating that CHL has the search history of someone that may be in need of earwax services.

I made a ribeye for dinner last night and when thinking about what I wanted to eat next to it I decided to roast some Cauliflower and Broccoli. And damn, it is so easy to make and wildly underrated in terms of deliciousness.

Who knows what data they've correlated with people who want to dig in their ears safely. All I know is that it apparently isn't me yet.

I season with a bit of salt, black pepper and garlic powder.

Dash of olive oil and delicious.

Oooh, didn't even think about adding garlic powder. Just did olive oil, salt, and black pepper. I added a bit of crushed red pepper to the bowl afterwards for a small kick. I'll have to try some garlic powder next time.

Careful not to do too much, it can overpower easily!

It felt like the Jabari wars all over again.

My ears are fine! I use warm mineral oil!

Plantar fasciitis, ouch ouch ouch!!!

I am battling this affliction currently, it's self diagnosed but I got a pretty solid med circle.

Getting to be an old fart is not fun. I have begun implementation of stretches and self PT and have seen positive results. The previous few weeks were practically unbearable. It creeps up on a person... until the moment when the first few waking steps were awful.

My left foot is feeling almost normal now, but the right is still barking. One of my hospitalist buds suggested injections, but I'm trying to space out my foot traffic days and it seems to be working.

I put on a gang of brisk miles on the hard tile floors. Footwear selection is now a major point for recovery.

Had this a few years ago. I can not suggest a sleeping boot/night splint highly enough. Keeps the tendon stretched when your sleeping. Totally helped clear it up quicker and prevents that awful pain in the morning.

I love my cat. I really do. He's the sweetest and funniest thing.

I just wish that **** didn't have the propensity to vomit on the carpet at the least convenient time.

Middle of the night if I start to hear the heaving from our older cat I jump out of bed like a maniac and grab her to get her off the carpet. Because if I don't I forget and step right in that ish the next morning.

I've found that regular brushing helps as does diet but it's still going to happen. Just don't do it on the furniture!

Most of the time, it isn't a big deal. Takes a few minutes to clean it up and soak the stain in Nature's Miracle. Works like a charm. But twice this week he's puked just as I was about to leave for work. Literally as I'm walking out the door. I mean, come on, man!

The only carpet in our house is in the Master Bedroom and the cats aren't allowed in there. Throughout the rest of the house there is exactly one rug. I'm pretty sure the little bastards aim for it.
