Facebook is making me uncomfortable.

Recently, Facebook keeps putting advertisements on the side of my homepage about making babies and it’s getting out of control.  

At first it was funny:

What is Facebook trying to say?  That I’ll have angry-looking, potentially ugly babies with stares that rival that of the Basilisk (there’s your Harry Potter reference for the day)?  I find solace in the fact that at least the advertisements are in Spanish.  This way I can practice reading while I’m insulted by a social networking website.
