Read my mind, Oh Great GOOGLE

Try typing something on Google and half way through, the smartass search engine starts playing mind reader and gives you a series of options that you can choose from.

Now Mr. (know-it-all) Google, I know your guesses are based on stats etc, but dude, your guessing game can turn hilarious at times. Like really. Check this out.


I shout...ed at my girlfriend. Aww?

I saw... MY PARENTS DOING IT!!! (Haww!)
....MY BROTHERS BALLS!! (WTF!!)


Dance... WITHOUT DRESS (Ahem. Nice)


I went... TO A PARTY MOM (??)
... TO THE ANIMAL FAIR (Random!)
... TO BED AT 8 (Uhh. So.?)


Love in... THE TIME OF CHOLERA!? (Why Cholera!?)


And the most intriguing of ALL.
Type SEX, and Mr Google has NO COMMENTS!! I swear. Nothing. Zero.
Dude. How can you have NOTHING for sex!?
Not accepted. No.

Dude you know google is personalised right? :) I did not get the funny stuff you got when you put in "I saw"...I swear :).. I can send you a pic by mail, since I cant paste it here. Google shows you stuff based on what you searched for earlier...I bet you were naughty earlier :P

Mumbai2Atlanta said...

And yes I do get lots of stuff when I put in "Sex":
Sex and the city 2
Sex offenders
Sex offenders in Georgia Notice that this is where I live
Sex and the City
Sex therapy lyrics
....etc

Ahem. In that case, the so called personalisation has gone completely wrong here. I didn't even know of a song 'I saw her standing there', nor have I seen my parents doing it (thank goodness), and brother's balls are best left alone. Party mom and animal fair seem unheard of and love in the time of cholera!!? Like really!?

And most importantly, why the hell do I NOT get anything when I type sex. WHY? Maybe cause you are using google.com, and I am using google.co.in. Or maybe some other reason. But why am I not getting anything when I type Sex? :(

Hotwani said...

And yes, does that mean most of the time YOU sit googling Sex and the City?? Cause that's your no. 1 option? Hmm? C'mon dude. Bol de. I wont judge you. :P

Love in the time of Cholera is probably a book. I Haven't googled it now, but i think it's a book.

Also, Google has no suggestions for sex or any related "dirty" words only in India due to a government ruling which has banned it. The images are filtered too.

And yeah, it does how hilarious suggestions at times. Go type 'How to' and the first option is 'How to get pregnant' :P

sonali said...

And Vikas, silly, it's not personalised according to person. It's personalised according to countries.

So don't fret if your friend has suggestions for sex and you do not!

Manali said...

Hi Vikas,
Love in the time of cholera is a novel.. and I think you should really take a look at this other blog post. I think you'll find it hilarious.

Hahaha the link that manali provides ..the Indian version is the funny one...I guess the google thinks Indian guys need a lot of help in..ahem..certain departments.(Google India is nice enough to suggest videos)
You know if you really wanna get pissed at google what you should do...check out google India maps google maps USA and google maps China( I am not sure if it still exists), check out the Indian borders(Kashmir etc) and let me know what you think.In the indian version J&K are in India; .com has them as disputed, and the chinese one has some parts in China!!!

@Son: Arre I was just responding to a certain guy's allegations here that 'I' have sat googling all that crap in office, and hence, I am getting those options. Samjha jara usko.

@Manali: Saw the link. VERY interesting, I must say. :)

@Mum2Atlanta: Chal, since you are anyway there, take this issue up with Google. Jaa.
