I truly hate to mention the site that shall be mentioned, but...

They talk so much about "The Dumpster" (their pet name for us), that each time I lurk there is an ad for WASTE MANAGEMENT or, the best, "WASTE OF AMERICA." Perfect. Love it! They're too stupid to even understand keywords.

When, in fact, the ads displayed are based upon the keywords that show up in posts on their site. That is why every time they post "The Dumpster," the keyword "Dumpster" shows up in Google Adwords. That is why they get "Waste of America" ads.

I've had an Adwords account for years. The admins at the site that shall not be named are apparently too stupid to understand this. The ads displayed are based upon keywords that show up in posts, not upon anyone's searches.
