I wish Americans would use Google occasionally

Americans!* You invented the arsing thing!** Why not try using it occasionally?***

Thankyou and goodnight!

*Yes, and you Canadians too, you’re just as bloody bad
** Google, that is, not the internets; everyone knows we (TEH BRITS) invented THEM
*** I know not all American dopers do this, but it’s not just this fine fellow, and it’s fucking annoying

What’s Google?

You put them over your eyes.

Sometimes, they do nothing.

We’ll start using Google when you fuckers figure out how dental hygiene works. :stuck_out_tongue:

And if that is all it takes to make your pussy bleed enough to start a pit thread then you may want to check into adjusting your meds.

Maybe Brits should try using Google occasionally too. It might disabuse them of odd notions such as this.

You know, threads are conversations. People will ask for clarification, context, wander off on tangents, all sorts of thing during the course of one. Most people have no issue with that. Muck fuckers whose intellectual climax for the month is to shout at a long time contributor (and others) who ask relevant questions tend to have problems with most things I guess.

I don’t get it…why is this thread about all Americans, instead of BrainGlutton? Are all collectively at fault? Sorry for letting y’all down.

Insert the word “we” wherever you feel it’s most appropriate.

Most of the time I’d much rather hear who “Blunkett” is from whomever mentioned him. I’m not that interested, really, I just want a frame of reference so I know what you’re talking about.

If I need to know more, or if you’re overwhelmingly one-sided when you tell me about “Blunkett” (or whatever), then I can go Google.

And the winner of the most dumbass rant of the week award is…

And on top of that, sometimes the question is asked facetiously, to feign ignorance, or as an attempt to downplay the importance of the person in question, e.g., “Whose Fortean?”

Blunkett! Whoever he is.

I wish you Brits would suck my dick occasionally. I mean, you guys invented dick sucking so why not use it sometime.
Yeah and I wish Canadians would suck my dick too, though you’re not as good as Brits. Well actually I wish someone, anyone, would suck it.

Tim Berners-Lee

:slight_smile:

I just checked Google. They make fire extinguishers.

He is credited with inventing the World Wide Web, not the internet.

Speaking of things Fortean, there apparently are still obsessive followers of the paranormal who take as their hero Charles Fort, an early devotee of whacko urban legends.
There were people laughing at the gullibility of Fort and his patrons back in the '30s, but updates are available via Google.

Whose Fortean what? Whose Fortean post? Whose Fortean angst? Charles will be so upset by this.

I’m BrainGlutton! And so’s my wife!

Yes, but if we’re going to get nitpicky, we’re talking about “teh internets”, which are rather nebulous in definition, and nobody has really claimed yet. So I’m going to nominate Stephen Fry as their inventor. Handily, I get 1,000 Google hits for Stephen Fry invented teh internets. That’s three times as many as for either George Bush or Jesus, so I must be right. See? You Americans really should use Google more.
