It must be my browsing history but I am getting the weirdest stuff advertising on my Facebook all from Wish.

Some VERY strange clothing and spikes for puncturing car tyres. Just recently, a Princess Leia Slave Costume! I mean WTF?

I don't think it's your browsing history, Wish is just randomly weird generally. The first time I ever browsed that website the second item it offered me was a knuckle-duster and about half a dozen items later was what I can only describe as a ****ing machine.

And there was me thinking that my browsing history was the reason I've been getting that ad.

Given the vagaries of our swear filter, I'm wondering exactly what it is I'm missing 🤔

A fleshlight?

My first thought was "killing machine", and then I realised that wouldn't get filtered.

Possibly a symptom of my day.....

Beej, if you pay attention to your post, you’ll notice that ‘washing’ isnt filtered out 😂😂😂

Funnily enough I'm a member of a "weirdest thing you've seen on Wish/Alibaba/etc" FB group chat with some nursing colleagues. The '****ing machine' has featured a few times and the follow-up conversations have been quite interesting.

I'm glad someone else asked this. Getting a weird mix of items in their ads, from a DeWalt power saw to exhaust flame kits to adult novelty undergarments and some kind of ring for chickens. Either they are truly random or my Facebook friends are weirder than I thought. It's not my browsing history unless CRC has diversified into fetish gear (beyond the stuff for time triallists)....

Glad it's not just me then......my selection of delights has been some tight goth leggings, tatty looking g-strings, some horror mask, dog toys that I thought were buttplugs, and something that looked like a bottom torture device, but turned out to be hair tongs.

You can view it. Then you get even weirder stuff. Some of it could be a power tool or a butt plug. The mind boggles.

My water butt has been leaking. Where may one purchase one of these butt plugs?

Perhaps also some kind of machine to really drive the plug tight into the hole to ensure no leakage from my butt.

No, a machine. Like, a you-know-what for the ladies, on a sort of mechanical piston affair. I think it was table-mounted, I honestly didn't spend the time investigating too closely to be sure.

Jewel encrusted? You must really like your water butt to consider that. Allotment one-up-manship by any chance?

Ha!!!
Same here!!

I definitely know I haven't been looking online at:
Things to put up your bum. I mean, LOADS of things.... all shapes and sizes
Essentially what I can describe as a 'prosthetic penis you put over one's own penis to make it bigger and longer'
Fake under armour clothing
More things to put up your bum.
Really kinky and slinky WOMEN'S clothes.
RUbber earings

It's a strange place we live in..

Fixed now.

I think you may have me mistaken with a different form of cougar. (-:

I believe I was at some point actually, must've been a couple of years ago at least.

Obviously, it's a dog chew toy. You put peanut butter inside.

I seem to remember you starting or commenting on a thread. It's a number of years back but Iirc it was something to do with a rare earth magnet hand held ****ing device. I maybe confusing my threads mind.

Most stuff I get is really interesting looking engineering related items in anodised aluminium that I cannot recognise and I have no idea what they might be. Today there was something rolled up in a canvas roll - I have no idea what.

It's far more innocent that it looks. Turns out it's a face mask with a bears nose and mouth printed on a white circle.
The white background makes it look transparent when it isn't.

Mine has recently come up with an attachement to swap with the shower head that you insiert up your behind to clean it. Not sure if that's some sort of pleasure thing or some people really really want a clean hole.

The shower douche? It's very common in bilingual countries.

All I'll say is be careful if you choose to explore some of these recommendations, lest you become the next star of one of my favourite work-related giggle-inducing website pages...

I just bought a Scott RC branded jersey and full length bib set for £23 delivered from them!

Pretty good service in fact.

No idea what the zip in the chamois, metal studs and leather tassels are for mind you 🤷🏻‍♂️🤣

those leggings with holes in. After I worked out that I think its meant to be a comparison of your thighs with bodyshaper leggings, (I think) I bloked Wish from my Facebook. I'm on a bit of a mission to block all the adverts as irrelevant or repetitive or annoying 🙂
