Inadvertent Dark Humor
One has to laugh at some of the juxtapositions that the Google AdWords AI creates sometimes. There’s an article here in today’s online New York Times about the scientist who was apparently behind the letters laden with a toxic substance whose name I’d rather not let search engines find in my blog. In a sidebar on the same page appeared these ads:
Nice, eh? The link for the last one goes to this page, which offers products in the “Mass Fatality” category. The EveryBody Coffin (the name is trademarked, by the way) is described as “[a]n affordable wooden coffin for dignified disaster response.” On the same page you can find body bags and “Post-Mortem Shroud Kits”. Minimum order on the coffins is 10 units, by the way.
They’ve got some other neat stuff, too, like barricade tape, hazardous materials suits, and even a cooling vest for canine units.
