Some things, if you type them in, NOTHING comes down in the search bar. Type in “teen” and nothing pops up. “Tee” gets you the top 10 searches but once you type that “n,” the whole thing disappears. Similarly, “blacks” brings up nothing. “nigger” brings up: niggersniggersniggers niggerniggersniggers niggersniggersniggers lyrics niggersniggersniggers jokes niggersniggersniggers song “young girl” brings up nothing (even though that’s the title of a hit song from the 70s.) “young boy” brings up nothing “penis” brings up nothing, although “penile” brings up a whole list of medical-related stuff “want to kill” brings up: want to kill you like they do in the movies want to kill people want to kill ex want to kill with me want to kill my wife want to kill somebody want to kill everyone want to kill me ---

> [@otorophile](#): > > type in “is there” > 1st result: is there a god. A fair enough question. > > 2nd result: is there anyway i can get this popular guy to get me pregnant. :eek: Not for me. I get: is there life on mars is there a god is there life after death is there going to be a high school musical 4 Clearly Google knows where _my_ priorities are at. 😃 Seriously, though, what’s with the different suggestions for different people? Bonus search: type in “should i”… should i stay or should i go lyrics should i stay or should i go should i shave my pubic hair Now I’m never going to be able to listen to _that_ song without singing _those_ words! ---

That’s kinda sad. It’s like people are expecting psychiatric help from Google in addition to internet searches. Searching “I have” gives you “I have no friends” and “I have no life”. Google can’t solve your problems, people! ---

Another fun experiment is to type in part of your full name (if you have an uncommon name) and see if anything comes up in the suggestion box. (Mine does, by the way…and I’m fairly certain I am the only person in the world with my name.) ---
