But despite my false sense of obstinacy, one of Facebook's psychologically conniving advertisers succeeding in pushing my buttons just enough to push theirs.
Here was the banner that popped up.
Blame the irrational hormones secreted by my biological clock, but for this one instant, my curiosity trumped my logic … and I clicked. Sucker!
Here are the series of windows that followed.
So I went from two people wanting to marry me to just "1 pure luv." I clicked OK. This is what I got.
Lesson learned. Skepticism maintained.

A little untrue here, infomercials are not the same! In the instance of and infomercial, you get a product, even if you are swindled into buying it. (It's usually a good product too!!)
In this "click here" instance, it is reaching toward your curiosity nerve. You wonder what could be behind door number 1,2 or 3.
I do agree on maintaining your skepticism especially in this new world of the online pop up industry. And what a funny arrangement of sites they had for you at the end...a conspiracy perhaps?
So in conclusion, don't knock infomercials down, they're being upfront and honest with you. Even that guy with the mop at the street fair...you know it works and you want it every time. The problem? Walking home with it!
