Not only did they have my age range completely inaccurate they've also listed camping as a hobby. I don't even own a tent, I have no idea why they think I like camping. I've never bought any camping equipment from them, I've never accessed the website from communal wi-fi in a campsite. I don't know where they're getting this assumption from.
Have you ever researched or looked at knives or multi-tools?
Oh maybe, I'm not particularly interested in things like that but my dad is pretty into Swiss army knives so maybe he used my Amazon account at one point?
I mean it's fine I don't care I just think it's odd.
