Why, Google?

November 12, 2009

in Random crap

Taking a short intermission from stories of almost getting murdered in Japan to demand that you go right now to Google and type in “Why”.  Then look at the auto-suggestions.

I’ll wait.

Why are you still here?  Okay, fine. I’ll do it for you.

why google

Awesome.

Bonus:  What comes up when you type in “Why won’t”:

Technically I've wondered about that second one too.

Technically I've wondered about that second one too.

And that’s why the internet was invented, y’all.

(Hat-tip to Relo who saw this phenomenon and instantly thought of me.  Thanks?)

Comment of the day: “Why won’t my parakeet eat my diarrhea?”

Um.  Hello?

They can’t hold a spoon.

Stupid fuck. Like you needed to Google that. ~ moooooog35

My parakeet accidentally broke his neck. I assumed he was turning a flip on his cage when something went awry. Maybe he was trying to get to the bathroom.

Type in “why are” The third suggestion is “Why are all the black kids sitting together in the cafeteria”

Typing in “I am” gets you “extremely terrified of Chinese people”

And finally, typing in “God is” gets you “God is an astronaut”

I used to be surprised by the things people type into search engines until I started tracking visits to my blog. Now NOTHING surprises me. Although the scarier thing is that these weird ass searches lead the people straight to me. That probably means something but lets just move on.

I get everything from ‘vagina ooze’, ‘masturbation’, ‘why does God hate masturbation’, ‘does God get upset when you masturbate’, ’slug penis’, ‘necrophilia’, ‘jesus hates your wallpaper’, ‘pimel liken’ and ‘piemol liken’. I don’t know what the last two even mean! The list just goes on and on. Those are just the ones that popped in my head.

If you type in ‘how’, you get ‘how to get pregnant’. Then if you type in ‘when’, you get ‘when to take a pregnancy test’.

So basically Google thinks we’re all pregnant whores. Awesome.

If you type in ’screw’, you get ’screwed the pooch’. SCARY.

Best of all though:

Type in ‘Bloggess’ and you get ‘Bloggess Shatner’, ‘Bloggess William Shatner’, and (my favorite) ‘Bloggess Hobbit’.

That’s is bizarre, as just yesterday, my sweet innocent 9 yo daughter was researching for a class project. I had the presence of mind to make sure she didn’t do that alone, but that didn’t help as she was reading nearly the *exact same* list (BONUS: “why did Micheal Jackson turn white?” But it seems that’s because I’m Canadian and we don’t get it, apparently. I thought Americans didn’t get that either, but it looks like I was wrong. Can someone dumb it down for us please?)

Thankfully, she didn’t ask (me) why so many would want to know about a dead pakistani, although she did giggle about why men would have nipples. Mostly because it said “nipple” I’m assuming.

Compare “how might” and “how 2″:

how might a capsule contribute to pathogenicity
how might flagella contribute to pathogenicity
how might scope changes in the implementation phase affect quality time and budget

how 2 kiss
how 2 get pregnant
how 2 grow weed

Very funny! I have often thought about googling all sorts of nonsense, more specifically infectious diseases via Google on my work internet. They are extremely anal about internet abuse, and given the department I work in, I’m sure it would come up on the internet abuse report and make for some interesting gossip!

Every time I read your blog I want to comment but then all your commenters are so freaking witty and awesome that it intimidates me. I could only wish to be as witty, I keep coming back to try to gleen it from them. Like a ghost stealing energy, or something like that.
And I’m driving my best friend nuts by reading your blogs out loud to her, because she “can read!” but I like reading out loud and my son never lets me read to him.

I’m aware that this probably isn’t the forum for airing my complaint, but I really don’t care. I found your blog using StumbleUpon and I’m hooked. I have subscribed to it and I also follow you on twitter. However, there is one very disturbing problem with your site.

I have been diligently digging into your archives and therein lies the problem. Let’s say I chose June 2008 as my fix for today. In order to appreciate your awesomeness in the correct order, I have to scroll to the bottom of each page and go to the previous entries until I reach the beginning of the month. I then have to read each page starting at the bottom. When I finally reach the top, I have to scroll back down to the bottom and go to the next page only to start the whole silly process again.

This is time consuming and unfair. Reading your archives this way takes considerably time away from my dogs and husband who are all whimpering for food in the background. If you love me, as you should, you will fix this. If not, I will be forced to tell all 3 of my friends what a vile, socially-retarded, selfish toad you are. The choice is yours.

“Why will,” now there’s an interesting (and often oddly specific) question:

Why will the world end in 2012
Why will gram positive cells more than 24 hours old stain gram negative
Why will a magnet attract an ordinary nail or paper clip but not a wooden pencil
Why will the earth end in 2012
Why will obligate anaerobes grow in thioglycolate
Why william petersen left csi
Why will we die in 2012
Why william is called bill
and finally,
Why will a carrot slice when placed in tap water for 24 hours become very stiff.

Answer these questions and you can rule the world.
Until of course it ends in 2012.

Dear people horrified/confused by the “dead Pakistani” question:
It’s a quote from Lost. It’s one of the funnier lines ever said on the show. However, the Pakistani was actually an Iraqi character, being played by an Indian, and he wasn’t actually dead (on the show or in real life).
