Ok, you all know those ads at the top of the page right? Well, just now, an ad came up for some singles website or something. it had 3 pictures of 3 girls. all from my town, providence rhode island. now, this is a little odd. but to continue in the wierdness, one of them I actually know, and goes to PC (providence college). One of my friends whos a senior introduced me to her at a party about a year ago, and now shes in an ad on PSU? omfg I need to go lay down.

He's not talking about a Google ad though. It had a pic of the girls. Google ads don't have pics.
