Am I on Candid Camera?
Seriously, who is screwing with me with the search terms? Who in the world searched for “fanny pants yum yums”? Who did it? And what are they? And why did you click over to my blog? I mean, aside from the fact that my blog is the first link when you google that phrase? And why is my blog the first link when you google that phrase? That makes me vaguely uncomfortable.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: My favorite part of this blog is looking at my stats to see what search terms led people to this place. Fanny pants yum yums? Come on! Sometimes I think Bryan types in these ridiculous things just to mess with me. He did that once and now every time I come across something odd, I blame him. He swears he’s not the one googling “Pac-Man pants,” but that is one of my most popular search terms so I don’t believe him. In fact, if I combine all of the different combinations of “anorexia” and “runners,” then “Pac-Man pants” is the 3rd most popular search term right behind “stretchy pants.” And now I’m only fueling the fire by typing it in here. Of course it piqued my interest, so I googled it and I still don’t know what it is these people are looking for. Pac-Man doesn’t even wear pants.
What about the rest of you bloggers? What is your most interesting search term?

It’s nowhere near as awesome as “fancy pants yum yum,” but I get an awful lot of people searching for “firefly reproduction.” It’s not the phrase that’s funny to me as much as the frequency. There are apparently an awful lot of people trying to breed the little buggers.

There are an awful lot of people with sticky hands, all kinds of sticky hands.

@mechelle EW!
@Heather.PNR At least you can imagine amateur entomologists googling that; totally harmless and nerd-friendly.
@vwx You can’t see it, but I’m shaking my fist at you. Angrily!

After I wrote a post saying I lost that loving feeling for Jason Castro after I heard him use the word “raviolies,” I got a mean comment from a rabid JC fan, telling me he was the smartest person in the whole world. I felt sort of bad about it. But then I realized that someone who was googling “Jason Castro raviolies” should not have the power to make me feel bad.

“recycling sweaters felt” YAWN.
I WISH I were as exciting as fanny pants yum yum.

Apparently every dog on earth pees and makes brown spots on their owners lawn because I get varations of “dog pee brown spots on lawn.” I also get clicks for “beeping smoke detector.”
Beep!
