And now… The moment you’ve all been waiting for… It’s… [cue that guy from Monty Python] Weird Search Requests!
Here are some actual, unaltered search requests as found in a recent zone38.net server log:
- myself font – I’m still trying to figure out exactly what this person was looking for. A custom handwriting font?
- “weasel chomping on my privates” – From Google’s Hungarian site, no less. Guess Dave Barry fandom spreads around the world!
- incompetent INTP – Yeah, I have to admit I feel that way myself sometimes… (And go figure; I’m on the first page of Google’s results, too.)
- Free proofreader – I don’t think the Hall of Shame was quite what they were looking for. Though the content there may be considered proofreader-free…
- FREE GRAMMAR & READ PROOF PROGRAM WITH SCREEN SHOT – Yes, the capitalization and spacing is exactly how it was entered. Need I mention this search request was from an AOL user?
- cingular medication side effects – Wow. Talk about a phone company branching out. (I believe what they were trying to search for was the asthma medication called Singulair…)
And a special category; all of these searches led to the Proofreader’s Hall of Shame. You’ll see why:
- dowload Mario Word
- Super Mario free dowload game
- smartdownload dowload (And they spelled it right the first time!)
- free movie dowload
Apparently this is a common misspelling– well, then, I say, more power to those who misspell it in their searches! 😉
gosh, you’re famous! 😉
[random note: is it sad that I’m downloading “The Impossible Dream” for the fourth time and still not getting the version I heard a while back and liked?]
No; I’ve done that several times as well. It’s especially confusing in the electronic genre; there are so many remixes of any given song that it’s ridiculous sometimes…
