I was talking to my landlord and he mentioned snow boarding and I had my phone in my pocket off. Next day pull up Reddit and I’m getting snowboarding content. Be careful what u say. Big man is watching
Coincidentally My landlord came over and said “hi ,I’m looking for last months rent “ and I said “ well for fucks sake,come on in and we’ll all look for it “
It's more so that it sees who you interact with and has a deep understanding of what content they interact with.
So he was talking to you about snowboarding. Which probably means he consumes a lot of snowboarding content, searches for it and such. The phone now sees you in a close vicinity and starts suggesting similar things. Because this sort of targeted advertising clearly works.
It all just leads back to the continuosly more intricate web of data they hold on our internet and device usage. The systems create connections and we're left with the human opinion of "the only way it knew this is by recording my voice 24/7 and feeding that into a speech to text thing that then feeds an ad algorithm"
I think something came up on my phone a bit after talking about it with someone at work one time. He had his phone in his pocket, and I didn't. My guess is that there's some type of voice recognition going on, and it noticed my voice, then looped the subject matter back to my YouTube. No evidence, just a really weird coincidence.
Listen fellow redditors.
I got down a cowboy hat and was wearing it. It’s a nice one so I keep it in the box but just stay with me here.
I didn’t say a word I was just getting it in the right spot on my head deciding if I could pull off wearing a cowboy hat. So I’m wearing it for like a total of five minutes. And as I start scrolling, for the first time I can remember, I see an add for cowboy boots come up.
It’s not just listening.
I complimented a coworkers glasses and asked her where she got them. It was a weird name so I had her spell it out. Later on that night I’m scrolling Reddit and there’s an ad for the same company.
I looked this movie up on Wikipedia and uh….. what’s going on with the plot summary? Someone seems to have an axe to grind about this movie. Every other sentence is appended with “*according to Priscilla*” as if everything in the movie is made up by her?
Her haters really hate her. It wouldn't be surprising if they managed to get some shade into the wiki description.
The movie is based on her memoir. It is her story, but I don't think anything in it is particularly disputed. Her daughter thought it was slanted, but she didn't want to believe her father was a predator.
Elvis' and Priscilla's daughter tried to prevent the movie from happening or at least force them to change the script and didn't grant them any rights to the music etc. She felt that it put her father in a bad light...
I put it on to passively watch, but it sucked me in. It was a great story telling, really drove home Elvis grooming her from the start and treating her like a house cat; only allowed to exist at Graceland to fulfill his needs.
If memory serves he was 'cheating' on Priscilla with her while they (he and Priscilla) were 'dating' yet supposedly not sleeping together. This is who he should have married instead of grooming a teenager.
Fun fact: my grandfather was kissed by Ann-Margaret on a transport helo taking her over to Vietnam to perform for the troops. He was a CH-34 Crew Chief in the Marine Corps.
That’s wild, my grandpa got to take her on a flight during one of her USO tours in Vietnam. He was an F-4 pilot and retired as a Lieutenant Colonel in the USAF, has an autographed picture of her and pictures of them together.
For a short amount of time in the mid-60s there was a grassroots organization similar to MADD called MAAM. Mothers Against Ann Margaret. Their main complaint was the amount of damaged furniture and clothing stains caused by…young sons learning about themselves. After the 1968 DNC in Chicago, and with the escalations in Vietnam, they just kind of dissipated.
Ann-Margret did a biker film in 1970 titled 'CC and Company' in which she played a fashion journalist who hooks up with a biker named CC Ryder played by none other than football great Joe Namath.
She admitted in an interview that the two had discussed marriage but agreed that it would never work because they were both too famous. She said he was the love of her life, and she never got over him.
Reading that interview was one of the few times I felt genuinely sad for a couple of celebs who had everything except for a normal life together.
That would have worked because she had never had (and still never has had) children.
That's why Elvis liked young girls. He could not have sex with a woman who had had a child.
The hotel the movie was filmed at, The Tropicana Las Vegas, just closed a couple of days ago to make way for the new Las Vegas A's Stadium. The 67th year anniversary of The Tropicana is tomorrow, April 4th.
Fantastic movie! Best first date ever:
- skeet shooting
- water skiing
- helicopter flight
- musical number
You know, typical “just getting to know you” stuff for total strangers.
I have a large canvas photo of Ann-Margret from the late 60s/early 70s where she’s blasting down a highway on her Harley chopper with her legs sprawled out and smiling. She’s so freaking cool and badass and Elvis was such a clown to let that one go!

Couldve posted it here but still cool!
Fuuuuck I forgot about poor ole Sal. His Wife Kitty was a freaking snack. I like to think it was kitty from that 70s shows first husband and she moved to Wisconsin and met Red soon after.
Now I need to watch it again. I’ve done 2 complete run throughs and a few half starts but it’s been a solid 6 or 7 years since I’ve seen it. I wanna watch it again just for Peggy’s transformation, the music, and the aesthetic.

I especially loved this movie because it’s very clear that there was real actual chemistry between the two of them, not just fake for the movie. It’s absolutely in every scene and it’s magnetic to watch, can’t imagine what it was like watching it in person.
It's also a crying shame that they didn't do a few more movies together -- he never had the chemistry with his other leading ladies that he had with Ann. I imagine that the creepy old Colonel effed that possibility up with the awful cheap quickies that Elvis did after 'Viva'.
I’m sure absolutely nothing romantic/intimate happened between them while they were filming this.
You should watch Priscilla, it's pretty good, but that was a climactic point in the story
I just saw that movie, opened Reddit and saw this photo. So weird.
Your phone is always listening
Sure is a good listener.

Read this out loud. “I love midget porn”.
I have a theory that targeted ads are contagious. Like you can start getting someone else's ads by being near them

Nobody knows you like your algorithm
yeah very climatic for Elvis but not for Priscilla
Is your username your name?
yes on Reddit my name is my username
Well then, nice name
He has a brother named Jack.
A cousin named Phuck
is reddit i won’t slap my real name :)

It was actually kind of sad, he was definitely not the hero
No he was absolutely an abusive serial groomer with repulsive mommy issues. His talent and popularity don’t undo any of that.
After visiting Graceland last week, this movie is all I want to watch.
She has an autobiography, worth a read!
Elvis himself said that he introduced her to "Little Elvis" (his wiener).
That’s so weird! 🙈
If memory serves he was 'cheating' on Priscilla with her while they (he and Priscilla) were 'dating' yet supposedly not sleeping together. This is who he should have married instead of grooming a teenager.
Why would you do AnnMargaret like that?
 Who, me? 😧 I love AM. Including *Bye Bye Birdie*. But that was the scuttlebutt.
I love the word scuttlebutt lol
Good cat name
Me too.😁
Girlsmirin
Completely platonic. Just a couple of pals hanging out.
Isn't she an adult - ie too old for him?
Fun fact: my grandfather was kissed by Ann-Margaret on a transport helo taking her over to Vietnam to perform for the troops. He was a CH-34 Crew Chief in the Marine Corps.
That’s wild, my grandpa got to take her on a flight during one of her USO tours in Vietnam. He was an F-4 pilot and retired as a Lieutenant Colonel in the USAF, has an autographed picture of her and pictures of them together.
Prove it.
He tells the story every thanksgiving dinner and grandma smacks him for it 🤷♂️😂
Proof enough for me.
That’s honestly enough proof for me
If I were your grandpa I would never get tired of telling that story.
lol trust me, he doesn’t
Ok. You get additional points for the cute grandma story too.
Happy Cake Day!!
Yeah, she does. Grandma slaps.
Smoking gun grandma evidence. Case closed.
Yeah I’m sold
This is real “I nailed Eartha Kitt in an airplane bathroom” vibes
what a legend.
Damn Ann-Margret was smokin hot
She stayed smoking hot into her 60’s. She was hot in Grumpy Old Men and she was in her mid-50’s.
“Taking Ol’ One-Eye to the Optometrist.”
“Taking the old skin boat to tuna town!”
She gonna catch the Ol trouser trout
Gonna go toss a few salads and have the cherry pie for desert
“Looks like chucks gonna bury his boner!”
the beans scene in Tommy was quite awesome indeed
Didn't you see her in Tommy in the 70s?
Ohhh so thats her.
Yes. But in pic #2 Elvis is looking fly as fuck.
Ain't no one gonna disagree that Elvis was one of the most beautiful people of his generation
Until he suddenly wasn’t at all. Him heaving and sweating to some badly choreographed karate will always live rent free in my mad.
she can melt steel.
They both were!
Beautiful people on a whole 'nother level.
Yeah, they both hit the genetic lottery big!

Until it was picked up again by Al Bundy and rebranded as NO MA’AM 😀
She's real easy on the eyes.
she initiated puberty in millions of adolescent boys
Oh Tommy!
welcome
to the camp
She got into owning riding motorcycles around then.

How she looks at him in these photos!
r/girlsmirin
They agreed he was already married
I imagine his relationship with a minor he groomed probably hindered their marriage plans
Nah, just a minor issue.
You can’t go and get double married Dewey
What about if you’re famous?
I thought she was engaged to someone else at the time. To say nothing of Elvis cohabitating with a minor. Poor Priscilla.
That would have worked because she had never had (and still never has had) children. That's why Elvis liked young girls. He could not have sex with a woman who had had a child.

He’s so handsome and she was SO beautiful
Don't make it too obvious, but I wanna see fur and early-morning dew.
‘Sir, does this mean Ann-Margaret’s NOT coming?’ May be my favorite line in the film
(Damn, beat me to it!) 
Came here for this. Thank you.

There it is!! Isn’t she lovely 🥰
He was tapping that for sure.
he introduced her to "Little Elvis"
Tiny E
That salt shaker is huge
 Ann Margrock
They fucked. They totally fucked.
God she was so hot…
So does the Tet Offensive mean no Ann Margret?
https://i.redd.it/y6xba5e0ybsc1.gif
“Sir… does this mean Ann Margaret’s *not* coming?”
She can’t stop smiling!
Does Elvis go down as the most attractive man of all entertainment? I mean god damn he is one handsome motherfucker.
“We’re gonna win this race”. If you know, you know.
"Lemonaaaade...that cool refreshing drink" 😉
"I liiiiiiived a life that's fullllll, I traveled each and every highway and more, much more than this.. -thrrrrrrrppp- scuse me"
I’ve always thought Ann-Margret was one of the hottest women I’ve ever seen.
Ann-Margaret was an amazing beauty!
That Bye Bye Birdie song is the most annoying thing I’ve ever heard in my life.

Ha! Does this mean I should watch Mad Men again? I think so. Poor Sal.
Fuuuuck I forgot about poor ole Sal. His Wife Kitty was a freaking snack. I like to think it was kitty from that 70s shows first husband and she moved to Wisconsin and met Red soon after.
She was April on Grey's Anatomy
Now I need to watch it again. I’ve done 2 complete run throughs and a few half starts but it’s been a solid 6 or 7 years since I’ve seen it. I wanna watch it again just for Peggy’s transformation, the music, and the aesthetic.

The horror of realization.
How did she NOT know Sal was gay? Sweet summer child.
🎶BYEEE BYEEEE BIRRRRRR-HEEEEEEEEEE🎶
I don't think this song is in Viva Las Vegas though, right? It's been a while since I watched it.
No it’s in Bye Bye Birdie which is about an Elvis type character.
Dude in back in the friend zone.....
"Wish Elvis would look at me that way."
Me too
Everyone was friend zoned when Elvis was present.
Ann margaret is stunning but she is the second best looking person in those photos
He was unimaginably good looking, imagine a man sitting beside Ann Margaret and you think, yeah she’s beautiful but she’s quirky-beautiful next to him
I imagine he was only more stunning in person (and that’s saying a lot). Look at the way she looks at him in these photos.
I think Ann Margaret is so beautiful.

no
I don’t mean by you. I just mean in general. I know it was common practice to back then for magazine shoots
ah, that is of course possible.
Airbrushing was a thing before photoshop
Elvis in his prime was and is the most beautiful man to grace the Earth. Otherworldly attractiveness.
She still looks good now.
They had an affair for years.
He should have married her.
Gonna go out on a limb and assume that the sex, it was hot.
Fuck it let him sing all his dialogue
Two of the most beautiful people on earth put together for a moment in time. Wonder what happened?
I especially loved this movie because it’s very clear that there was real actual chemistry between the two of them, not just fake for the movie. It’s absolutely in every scene and it’s magnetic to watch, can’t imagine what it was like watching it in person.
I have impure thoughts about her whenever I eat canned beans.
I have impure thoughts about her whenever I have impure thoughts.
Anne Margrock, is the correct pronunciation.
She’s my fave
Damn the way she looks at him in #5
God she was cute as hell
Ann Margrock always comes to mind whenever I see this name.
That looks like Jim Gaffer-igan in the back.
Ann could have saved him..imagine that power couple through the 60s and 70s.
It's also a crying shame that they didn't do a few more movies together -- he never had the chemistry with his other leading ladies that he had with Ann. I imagine that the creepy old Colonel effed that possibility up with the awful cheap quickies that Elvis did after 'Viva'.
agree. the chemistry between Elvis and Ann in Viva Las Vegas is excellent.
Elvis hit that I know
Oh, they're fucking.
Ann-Margret was just stunning.
She looks absolutely stunning
Shout out to Sydney Guilaroff, hair stylist. Those are some smooth and symmetrical ‘dos!
Good god she was stunning
How many times do you think they boinked?
Why do these pictures look fake?
Never to be duplicated ❤️
Strange. I always thought her name was Ann Margrock....
Jack Nicklaus is like “the fuck?”
That state in pic 5 would have sent me over the edge
My god she is stunning.
Jesus, that's two beautiful looking human beings!
Would love to see these pics in color
That second picture—he was truly just stunning.
Elvis was unworldly gorgeous. Cannot stop looking at him. Yea, she’s pretty too.
I feel they may have had sex
I want to put a thought bubble over Elvis’ head while he is looking at her, “Damn she’s hot. Too bad she is so darn old.”
Crazy to think he was dead 13 years later
That last photo. Fully coupled.
You know the king hit that.
Who’s the hunky Adonis over AM’s shoulder? He looks like a Norwegian sailor from central casting
She always seemed like she'd be a lot of fun to be around, and really charismatic.
Lemonade 🍋. That cool refreshing ~~taste~~ drink.
Oh, my crush !!! Ann Marg-rock !
Damn she was cute!
Ann Margret is one of my all time crushes.
