:rofl: :evilgrin:


Edited to add: I got "Flying Spaghetti Monster - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia"..

I guess things have changed since the old days when people got the same results, like googling "miserable failure"...

12. The results are influenced by your past Googling
That's assuming you have cookies enable in your browser.

6. I don't find it humorous.
The second result for me is www.darwins-theory-of-evolution.com which is a site that is trying to pass off ignorance as science. It may fool some people, young people especially. Not funny.

10. I got the same.
Perhaps this has something to do with the fact that neither of us is in the US; Google defaults to google.co.uk for me, and I'm guessing google.ca for you. Americans get google.com. And Google's search results are partly location-based.
