I was just reading this critique/discussion of the Government's "Five a Day" fruit and veg scheme. I wanted to have a look at what the government considers a portion of each type of fruit and veg.
So I put five a day unquoted into google and it came up with the following :
A brilliant bit of maths there from Google calculator. Do you eat portions of fruit and veg at 5.8 X 10-5 hertz?
Oh god. I'm the world's biggest nerd.
Someone found LazyView by searching for "bizarre google searches"! Brilliant.
The Circle is Round is one of my Dutch friend's literal translations of a Dutch saying. It means the same as we would when we say the circle is complete.
1. why can't we speed on roads?
Why not indeed! How on earth this matched us I have no idea.
2. www
Unbelievable. I know I wrote an article on it but we must be so far down the rankings on that.
3. Subway salads what kind of salad?
All of them! It doesn't cost any more.
4. what is the chance of getting stuck in elevator
I don't know the answer to this, can anyone help?
5. english lazy bastards
Well, 1/3 right, and apparently I'm the least lazy blogger on this site.
I suppose it should have been inevitable really, since posting The Most Bizarre Google Searches By Which People Stumble Across This Blog last time our ranking in Google searches for "Harry Potter's cock" have gone through the roof and people are finding us by searching for that all the time. I guess this post will make the situation worse. With that in mind, here is a picture of him from that play where he got his kit off for all of you searchers to enjoy:
If you want more, I reckon you might have more success searching for Daniel Radcliffe Equus. Good luck Potter cock hunters.
It's not all been about the supple 11 inch Willow and Pheonix feather rod though. On no, we've had some other great searches find us. Some people might have found something useful. One searcher found us by searching for fantasy premierleague improvements, and they may have gone away happy.
One poor searcher was searching for how to be less lazy, this is entirely the wrong place for that! Another search was just for i am lazy which is quite a brilliant thing to search for. I might even give that one a go later. I would imagine that Google would ignore the i and am and just search for lazy.
Once again there is a clear winner for the month though. Someone found us by searching for "inane sandwich" which is pure genius. What could they possibly have been after? I really hope they are still reading and can let us know because I'd love to have an inane sandwich.
Blogger have a section on their homepage that tells you about "Blogs of Note". Today I visited one called Yeah, That "Vegan" Shit (partly because on Blogs of Note it was called Yeah, That "Vegan" **** and I wanted to find out what they censored) and they had a great idea which I decided to steal. The best google searches by which people stumble across this blog.
We're just about getting old enough and linked in enough places for google to index us fairly fast and for people to just randomly discover us through searching. We've had 11 searches find us so far. Here are my favourites, in reverse order.
kachru & ebmiggen, kachru & cromulent and kachru & simpsons
The most popular story for people finding our blog was the one about the quantum physics guy embiggening superstrings. How bizarre! We are actually on the first page of results for those searches.
Ways to Be Lazy
It's brilliant that someone was searching for this. Hopefully we helped them.
"kevin harrington" and "navy"
I didn't even know he'd been in the navy!
And finally, the search that really inspired this post. The only one worth posting if truth be told:
harry potter's cock
I couldn't believe it when I saw this on the reports. Further research shows that anyone searching for harry potter's cock will find LazyView high up on page 2. It's all down to my story Harry Potter and the Amazon Cock-up
