Shoulders?-Stomach!

Google's first suggestion is "bureau for an hour"

AzureSky

"I'm closi", in fact. So the challenge is to find a shorter reference than 9 characters that returns the same result in Google.

MoonDust

Coming in at exactly 9 characters is "This is a hi" before "This is a high class bureau de change" becomes top suggestion.


AzureSky

"Ted mau".

This is why I joined (again, after the great crash) in 2004.

That's even weirder.

What the fuck's going on?

Noodle Lizard

It's the same on the US Google.  What the fuck is this all about then?  Are there really no more common applications of these unfinished queries?

newbridge

Aren't the Google autocompletes influenced by the searcher's own internet history? These are probably just the autocompletes that show up for bald men who frequent CaB and phimosis support websites.

MoonDust

Perhaps, but I have the Day Today on DVD, this is a relatively new laptop (few months) and so I don't think I've ever searched for the Day Today on youtube or anywhere else whilst using this computer.

They just know.

Shoulders?-Stomach!

I've asked a few people on Facebook to try it who aren't Internet Morris People and they also get "bureau for an hour"


Do you get "bureau for an hour"?

" peter you' "


Result 1: ve lost the news
Result 2: ve added nothing

MoonDust

Actually laughed at this.

"In 197"

Result 3: In 1975 no one died
Result 4: In 1979 no one died

Thomas

'you feed'.

Second suggestion is 'you feed beefburgers to swans'.


MoonDust

Don't know why I found that so funny, but I did.

MoonDust

By extension, "You make p" yields "You make pigs smoke" as suggestion number 2.

Queneau

Just typed in "smell".

Suggestion one: smell gas
Suggestion two: smell my cheese

This is strange. Is this some trick Neil has pulled for anyone who frequents Cookdandbombd? Is he in cahoots with Google?

Queneau

Misquote alert. It's "dan dis."

Dr Rock


Van Dammage

Brilliant. I assumed they wouldn't show up if spelled in that way.

Crabwalk

This thread is fantastic. I just put in 'I know a c' and was slightly disappointed that the 4th result wasn't higher.
