ETA: And I buy a ton of stuff off Amazon -- mainly cookbooks, law textbooks and sometimes garments -- but it has f*ing bizarre recommendations for me. One time I bought all my textbooks and also a few sets of shoes and underwear and it recommended an American football. The best though was when I bought about fifteen cookbooks as presents, and it recommended a home enema kit.

Amazon mostly recommends books about sz to me - so I guess they have me nailed.
Here's what irritates me. I bank with ING Direct. And everywhere I go on the Internet now, I see ING Direct ads. I'm like, why bother aiming ads at me? I'm already a customer.
Hmmm... I guess they also have me pegged - accurately - as a reader of cozy murder mysteries.
