Searchable Words

I never do this, but I couldn’t resist.
The absolutely most-telling, most-amusing, most entertaining search string that someone put into Google in order to find WFME was this:
For a fax machine does the paper go face up?
Classic.



niiiice.
definitely beats out all the sex searches for my site.

the paper goes face down

Phew. Thanks, Kathleen.
I hope the person searching for that answer comes back so they know. This whole search thing got me curious, are there people searching on “how to hold a knife”, “where to put that candy wrapper” and “what to do with a dead girlfriend”?
God, I hope so.

Maybe you should Google it, PT.

That’s awesome. The top search string for mine was “my lungs hurt.” Apparently a lot of yahoo users suffer from respiratory pains and think I have the answer.
I’m curious what other answers to the mystery of life the Internet knows you are hoarding, Mr. Davidson.

I am afraid to do searches on fax maxchines in google now, I think the Porno sites have gotten to this phrase now because all I see is penises when doing it…

Kathleen & Meme — the fax machines in my office actually do take the paper face up. Text side up. Makes things a hell of a lot easier when I’m trying to remember the fax number, so I don’t have to disassemble the machine to try and remove the paper when I forget the number.

Just thought you should know, Pauly, that someone reached my site by googling for “Solo Pamchenko.”
