Seriously! First they take away the view image button, but you could still right click to view the image. Now the motherfuckers have taken that away, so when you right click to view the image you instead get the crappy little google cache version and not the full image. To view the motherfucking image you now have to go to the website and hope the god damned thing hasn’t been resized or that right click hasn’t been disabled. Larry and Sergey deserve pancreatic cancer, the cunts!
I was good up until this.
All the search engines are turning to useless cr@p.
Can’t you just ‘Copy Image’ then paste into an image viewer? Or ‘Open Image In New Window/Tab’? Either of these options still gives you the full image, as far as I can see. I know it might be an extra step but what do you want for nothing. They’re still giving you access to thousands of images at no cost. I’m not defending Google, but . . .
Because they were sued for making it so easy to download images, and thus removed the feature.
The right click method is still working for me most of the time, as I wait for the larger image to flash in the right pane after clicking on the thumbnail. I’ve only run into the problem you stated when the image is quite large.
There’s an extension for that if you’re using Chrome.
There is, but it’s a little finicky. I find I always have to refresh the Image search results, and only then click on an image so it will pop up in the right panel.
If I do what I normally do, and search for an image from my taskbar, and then click “Images” to view image results, it doesn’t work. I have to refresh the page to get the extension to kick in.
I realize it’s the Pit, but you lose me by wishing csncer on anyone.
Exactly. I mean, skin cancer at worst.
But but but, mean old Sergei won’t act as my accomplice to help me steal copyrighted images with impunity! Why shouldn’t I wish harm on him?
It’s all about meeee! [/sarcasm]
Yeah, it’s Getty that deserves to be pitted, not Google:
Now, we have various laws being enacted forcing Google to pay news sites just because they provide a hyperlink. As a result, Google will no longer link to them:
I wish folks would find and use a different term for a difficult or unpleasant task instead of “sucks dick.” Seriously. I know why it is used, by men at least, because theoretically it is the last thing they would ever want to do, and saying so props up their manhood. Shall I say “eats pussy?” I mean, that’s the last thing I would ever want to do, not that this was ever a secret.
Please be advised that I do not have my knickers in a twist about this (if you care, which you don’t). I am not offended, it’s more that I feel sorry for anyone who hasn’t grown up any more than that, by now.
Now, now. Some of us enjoy this…
… to the extent that, after years of searching for one, we’ve managed to find and join an exclusive club. The initiation ritual was uncompromising in its demand for secrecy, but I can say that the club involves Antarctic wilderness guides who are proficient at “doing the twist” (the group is quite droll, really, after a snifter or two of aquavit).
I was expecting this extension. I used that just a few minutes ago to identify a catfisher.

But that’s just it – what should it be?
Sexual swear words are all pretty bad, and supposed to be just used for maximum impact. If there’s a complaint here it’s possibly just that it gets over used.
Personally I’m fine with it for BBQ pit, the cancer thing was much worse.
When someone says “Sucks dick” or tells you to suck theirs, it’s homophobia at its ugliest.
I just assume the person is ignorant, as well as sexually confused/closeted/immature.
(ps: my kids are sure I’m going to be beaten to death for pointing things like this out to a large, angry jerk.)

Meanwhile, back on topic, I resent that if I search for something and add a word with a minus sign, Google ignores that. And often gives me hundreds of responses WITH the offending word.
Example: Looking for a Stephan Schwarz.
I swear Google used to use Boolean logic! So I could add -Steven and -Schwartz.
But not in a long time. Now Google “helpfully” gives me almost nothing but Steven Schwartzes.
Oh, and even if I type “Stephan Schwarz”, I’ll also get hundreds of Stevens, and people named Darrin Stevens, and pages that somewhere in a footnote mentions a Schwartz. ARRRRGH!
Yeah, but do you suck straight guy’s dicks? Because a depressing percentage of straight guys won’t even wipe or wash their own assholes properly because “that’s gay” and their stank dicks aren’t something any sane person would want to taste. I would imagine a gay guy would pay a LOT of attention to hygiene down there but straight guys…not so much. So when you see “eat a dick,” think “eat a dirty smelly unwashed straight guy dick” and that ought to fix your distaste for the phrase.
I’ve heard that claim often enough that I believe it to be true but the thought process is just alien to me. Firstly, what’s wrong with being gay? Even if you assume that being gay is a bad thing, how is washing off your stank “gay”. Even if it is, it’s logistically a poor choice. If I have any chance of getting some tail, I am going give every inch a proper washing.
I can’t explain it, but even trying to get the average guy to go wash his hands before he sticks fingers into a woman’s vag is an uphill struggle. If you want to be horrified, go hang out on TwoXChromosomes, NotHowGirlsWork and RelationshipAdvice on Reddit–I’ve been determinedly single for almost 15 years now and it’s mind croggling to me what women are apparently supposed to put up with on the regular from the average dude. The dirty dick thing, though, that’s a classic and apparently men don’t seem to think there’s anything wrong with whipping out a weiner that’s been marinating inside polyester undies and jeans all day and expecting their girlfriends to coo and be happy about getting within nose reach of that thing. A keeper will at least go wash when asked without throwing a temper tantrum.
