Can someone explain to me....

Post by snoscythe »

....why, when I go to www.google.com and type in "why won't my.....," THAT is the first suggested search in the drop down box of suggestions?

Are there really that many people asking that question?

I'm just a regular, everyday normal guy,
I can't afford a car, I use public transportation,
I don't mind, I read till I reach my destination,
sometimes a newspaper, sometimes a book,
the money I save, this stuff is off the hook,

Have to make sure that you put the ' in "won't" or it won't work...

Same reason why when you type "Fat people are" your first suggestion that comes up is kinda silly too...

Google and Yahoo are in a "war" of which company can have a better suggestion when doing auto complete for certain phrases. Guess who is winning.

Well, whatever number it was asking that question before, it has increased based on your suggestion. And, no I have never asked that question before.. :sick:

Type in "a white person."


Where the hell am I going and why am I in this handbasket?
