*snicker* Er, yeah... Thanks, Amazon.
("Adultery" is the title of a book, and it was recommended to me because I just looked at The Mistress: Histories, Myths and Interpretations of the Other Woman and they built my recommendations around that. I'm greatly amused.)
Oh, I should've gotten a screenshot, as now they tell me they're recommending the Kurosawa box set. *laugh*

Amazon gets confused easily
I find these things funny also in much the same way that I got a good laugh out of the anecdote in "A Random Walk Down Wall Street" where the author has a computer plot random curves and then showed them to technical analysts for their opinions. In one case, the analyst recommended buying and asked for the name of the stock so he could purchase it right away. It's amazing the degree to which meaningless information properly presented can convince people (I assume that some people buy recommended products, or Amazon would stop doing it).
