I used to be creeped out by the ads, now I'm not bothered as I used to be.
My friend is a rather passionate about his beliefs in science and his non-beliefs in god so he always manages to write up a hilarious minifesto from time to time. I hadn't heard from him in a few weeks and then one day out of the blue he emails me something very benign like "hey are you busy this weekend?". The google ad above his message was "Would you like to join an Athiest newsgroup?". We both get a healthy laugh out of how goolge recognizes him as a blashphemous guest in my inbox.
