So I’ve been in this funky mood for awhile, feeling like I need a change. (Remember the whole “let’s do medical coding!” thing? Yeah.)
Yesterday said funky mood got the best of me when Blogger timed out at just the wrong moment. So I said something less than polite and made the switch to WordPress. I also made the switch from Safari to Firefox. This is what geeknerds do instead of having affairs. It’s the same thrill of the new without all the messy fluids and heartbreak.
So anyway–back to messy fluids. I wrote my “About” page this morning and used a phrase I’ve used all my life to describe the things most normal people refer to as “dust bunnies”. As an afterthought–because it’s always good to research things after you say them–I googled the term “slut’s wool”. It’s an archaic term, but perfectly normal otherwise.
But Google and/or Firefox had a nice list of “suggested terms” which came up when I typed in “slut”. As you can imagine, none of them had anything to do with dust bunnies. Or maybe they did. You never know what they’ll come up with in Japan.
Seriously, I know I was looking for an off-colour word here. But is it really responsible for Google to just put a list of a dozen free porn sites at anyone’s fingertips?
Oh who am I kidding. Right now at least half of you are on your way to type “slut” into Google.
I know exactly what you mean. I was looking for a picture of “morning” for my classroom and got a bunch of pictures of “the morning after!”
Hmmm Have just been on dustbunnies.com!
