An ad for zebra skin rugs on DU?? Seriously??

[Brigid]

That's right -- that's what I saw. I clicked on the ad because I could not believe my eyes. But it was for real. They had lion rugs too. Did anybody else see that?

1. I seriously hope they were faux

That's the only way they could possibly be cool.

5. At the prices I saw . . .

They must have been real.

[shenmue]

6. Not cool

[Brigid]

11. I saw it again.

I posted about in in ATA.

12. I hope they take it away.

2. If you believe the ad truly does not belong on DU,

report it in Ask the Admins.

Ads are generated based on page content or browsing history. Sometimes the algorithms generate offensive ads. When that happens, the admins have the ability to ask Google Ads to block ads from that source in the future.

They may choose not to - but the only way to find out is to ask.

4. I wonder if a filter of some sort has caught it already.

I haven't seen it again -- at least not yet.

3. zebras aint going nowhere.

That continent is large.

Complain about leather seats in a Volvo.

7. I think there are more cattle than zebras in the world

Just a guess.

8. It is truly asinine to assert that a species health is protected by continental mass

But I'm sure you know that.

9. No worse than any other kind of leather, if they'e plains zebras.

If they're one of the rarer sorts, it's rather more serious, though, I grant you.

10. doesn't that usually mean you were doing a search for that ?

[Brigid]

13. I've had that happen before.

Many times I have done a search and a relevant ad pops up here on DU. But lion skin rugs?
