It sometimes feels as if I've entered into a strange simulacrum of reality when I end up on websites like that. It has the logo of a known (albeit pretty trashy) newspaper business at the top, but it is being entirely staffed by aliens.
These aliens don't know how tumors are extracted... because you don't cut perfect rounds out of the patient's body and fill it with bio-compatible spackle. Neither do the aliens think it odd to describe a concept in the same terms as actually physically instantiated concepts, what we would normally call "inventions." Finally, the aliens draw a nonsensical relationship between this non-existent invention and my business and the lessons that I can learn from it.
I understand conceptually how we have ended up in this world, but every once in a while I am again surprised.
