Google makes suggestions

If you’ve been on Google lately or read the last post, you know that Google has started making suggestions of searches as you type in the search box.  Example:

As best as I can tell, these are the most common searches that start with what you’ve entered so far.  Some of these are crazy.  Here’s some sets of what you type and the suggestions they give (notes are not provided by Google)

Where is

  • Where is Dubai  - Geographically, politically, or metaphysically?
  • Where is Chuck Norris  - Everywhere, and nowhere
  • Where is Waldo  - Behind the mail box
  • Where is the g spot  - In Dubai

Who was

  • Who was the youngest president  - Most people don’t know this, but Taft was only eight and a half years old when he was sworn in
  • Who was eliminated on dancing with the stars  - Sigh

When was

  • When was Jesus born  - Christmas in the year zero obviously
  • When was John McCain born  - See above

Why do

  • Why do men have nipples  - They’re like hood ornaments (entirely decorative)
  • Why do men cheat  - Not going to touch this one (Hi Honey!)
  • Why do dogs eat poop  - That poop isn’t going to eat itself, mister
  • Why do dogs eat grass  - See above

How to

  • How to get pregnant  - Usually involves some combination of love, rum, carelessness, or insufficient latex tensile strength
  • How to make money  - See above

I feel like we all learned a valuable lesson today.
