This sounds like the work of a Chrome extension that way be installed on your computer. For example, this one or another one like it: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/do-i-sound-like-a-nazi/dbhfbchkgfpkjljghlmnbdbgflhdpohg

To see which extensions you have installed, navigate to chrome://extensions/ and disable or uninstall anything that looks suspicious.  

Please let us know if that solves the issue.
vicganon@ Do you have a response to comment #2? Have you tried disabling all extensions?
Status: WontFix (was: Unconfirmed)
Closing as per lack of feedback and we cannot reproduce. Also there clearly are extensions installed in the screenshot.
