Buy a Dyson vacuum cleaner on Amazon... For the next several weeks Amazon thinks I've taken up the popular hobby of collecting vacuum cleaners

I once clicked on a 'russian bride' google ad for a laugh, quite a while back. Google still puts lots of russian and filipino bride ads into my 'bubble' to this day...

You can remove "mistakes" like that from your Google history pretty easily.

To give some justice to the algorithm, after purchasing my first Dyson I wanted to replace all my vacuum cleaners with Dysen.

How many vacuum cleaners do you have?

One per house, like everyone else!

Plebeian.

One per floor per house, of course. You don't want to have to carry them up and down stairs.

Nouveau riche.

All houses should have one floor. Why use stairs or elevators when you can just buy more land?

Not the same person, but I have three. I have a roomba for everyday sweeping, a Bissell for actually cleaning the carpets not just sweeping them, and a Black and Decker handheld for the stairs, the car, and other places it's hard to take a full vacuum or a robot.
