...in the certainty that it didn't exist?

Then find out it did?

If so, what was it?

My dog has sore feet which require the intermittent application of socks, which he immediately conspires to remove. I jokingly suggested we needed canine sock suspenders, and more jokingly googled it...

I would assume googling "Dog in Suspenders" was NSFW

Another dog-related one...

Fed up with picking up the sort of mess that is somewhere between lumpy porridge, curry sauce and five minute epoxy, which generally leaves the pavement reminiscent of an IRA H-Block 'dirty protest', I decided the answer was to be proactive rather than reactive. The goal being to catch the poo, not pick it up.

What was needed was a hoop to hold the poo bag and keep it open, a stick with a joint, so the bag would be already under his rear end whilst he was still finalizing the perfect squat, plus the stick would need to be telescopic to make it easier to carry when not in use.

Just when I was starting to count the millions that would be rolling in, I found someone had beaten me to it:

You just need a USP for your one.

Sensor in it linked to a speaker, so it plays a typical fruit machine payout jingle as Fido fills it.

Five bird roasts don’t stop at five bird roasts I was pleasantly surprised.

In images I googled Black,

Nothing else

Nothing race related, I just wanted a black square to cut and paste some images onto.


What I was offered was horrendous, like a butchers shop window.

It was a while ago.

Without going into details it was a lady who wasn't shy at all.

A very pink expanse, as it were.

A friend posted a pic of a restaurant meal served on a rocker cover, or some such thing, and I suggested she join Campla - the campaign for real plates - and when I googled I found it exists as a facebook group.

Not Google but asking an “Alexa” device “what is 100 in Welsh” always raises a childish smirk.

There's a sub on Reddit called r/WeWantPlates devoted to that very subject.

A few years ago there was an online retailer of audio visual equipment in Australia called Big Brown Box (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Brown_Box). So, being in Australia, the website URL was www.bigbrownbox.com.au. One day at work I'm idly looking on the internet for Television prices and I quickly type in the URL and hit enter. Something didn't quite seem right straight away - it was like muscle memory was telling me I'd mistyped the URL. And I had. I'd forgotten the "dot AU" on the end of it and up appeared a web page of some large African American maidens rather exuberantly displaying their wares.

Not quite feeling the urge to explore for the sake of science I quickly closed that browser window and quickly went to the correct URL. I can only assume that there were no skin tones as such to alert some sort of network monitoring software, nor would the words of the URL indicate anything out of the ordinary to a computer as I never did hear anything from IT.
