Well, that is pretty funny, but I’ve had a not-so-funny experience with them recently. They said I could not use the word “absinthe” in my ad, yet hypocritically took NO action against people with ads actually SELLING absinthe! simply Google “buy absinthe” and you can see they haven’t taken down one single other “absinthe” advertsier! I’m currently arguing my case right now with them, but they’re being extremely rude and not answereing questions in the messages relayed thus far…

Knowing that Google does have a particular way of communicating to their customers, they’ll probably let this one slide.

Funny stuff – but the question is how “funny” will the new round of hidden holiday ad minimum bids be? – it’s already started for this year. Guess that’s what happens when you need to hit those estimates for investors, and the sad thing is people still seem to be lining up to spend the money! Maybe making google a 501 (c) 3 charity would be easier for everyone – then we can all just donate….afterall, it’s all about relevance right?!

Janet, it could just be a weekend thing and will probably be gone tomorrow. Definitely now that you’ve called attention to it.

Still a good and funny find.

Google bans sites from Adsense if they have a WTF in content:) but when its Adwords, everyone is welcome to spend some cash for Google…
