So a guy in the office tells me to type in "how to" into Google. The #3 auto-complete answer was "How to get a nun pregnant." Getting a good laugh out of this, I tried some other options. "When should" gave "you take a pregnancy test" as #3, and "When do" listed "babies roll over", "you ovulate", and "does morning sickness start" as #2, 3, and 4.
Apparently nuns use Google, too. |

well, doesn't Google does it based on your previous search history from this computer using cookies, so that will change from computer to computer mine "how to" completed to "..remove cosmoline" "stake front sight" and bunch of other manly things. what were you searching for?.. :) |

A sad one "how expensive is a" Google also frequently sterilized the predictions, there used to be some HILARIOUS ones. there was a time when "Why do" would move to autocomplete to 1."black guys stare at me" and 2. "mexican guys stare at me" If you type in something that is likely to return something really un-P.C. you can see google's filter kick in. when you hit the filter all the preemtive suggestions will disappear |

No cookies, proxies, etc. Had 3 other guys in the office that got the exact same results. There might be some default results or geographic factors involved. |

Quoted: Quoted: Wanna have some real fun? Type in "Why do liberals ..." ![]() People get different results. Share yours with us, or we don't necessary get the joke. ![]() one of the top results on my computer is Why do Liberals hate America. I must say though that, the number 4 response to "Why do Republicans" is Why do Republicans hate America also. If Google auto-complete results is to be believed, we need to form a whole new party/ideology. |
