Anyone just had some goofy fun buying AdWords?

e.g., for vanity, for friends, for jokes, and so on

I've amused and impressed friends by procuring AdWords phrases/terms similar to (but NOT exactly):

"Sexiest woman in Austin"
"evil genius"
"talentless hack"

and also (actually)
"[their full name]"

...and so on, leading to either their Web sites or to a profile page about them on my site or a forum.

All of them have been incredulous, and completely baffled as to how I could get them "in Google" at will.

It's been the least expensive "gift" I've ever bought friends, I must say!

Does this suggest that I sorely need to get a life (offline)? And will any of you others out there admit to using AdWords for goofy (read: non-business) purposes? :)

Ah, thanks! Now I do remember glancing over that topic, though I think the "one-of-a-kind" thing confused me initially. But it does seem to be pretty much what I was getting at.

Maybe I'm going senile :O. Apologies for the duplicate topic.
