The xkcd blog yesterday featured a list of phrases with no google hits, like "aww, a baby hooker!" and "unlike normal furries." At the top of the list was "ate a violin." How could there be no google hits for violin-eating?!

But if only there were a proper description of the radio play on the Pops website (and perhaps then they'd remember to sell it at concerts?), then I could have ever so briefly gotten Randall Munroe's attention! Which would be like winning the internet.

Of course, you realise, that now this blog, this site, this very page, is the number one result for a google search of "ate a violin."

ReplyDeleteSo did I.
ReplyDeleteYou cunning man.
Careful, this may start the 1st 'Internet Sensation' of 2009...
ReplyDeleteOr have my words just implicitly done that?
Damn!
