Revisiting the googlephrase
Music video featuring the googlephrases of "biggest regret." I introduced googlephrasing here four years ago in this post.
(For example, "is the best movie i've ever seen in my life" and "is the worst movie i've ever seen in my life" came back with interesting responses. Lots of readers pitched in as well with their own googlephrases.)
I decided to revisit one googlephrase I ran four years ago, to see how the answers have changed.
As answered by Google results, "the thing I hate most in the world is"...
• the lack of peace
• injustice
• hypocrisy
• getting stuck in a rut
• hanging indents I don't format myself (referring to Microsoft Word)
• a girl out looking for a husband
• to be lied to
• painting
• rogers and hammerstein's "oklahoma"

Try "The worst thing about Microsoft is" (I got only two results, but they're quite telling ones). Then the alternative "The best thing about Microsoft is" doesn't do much better. In contrast, "I hate computers" and "If I met Bill Gates or Steve Ballmer" both bring out a lot more responses. Hey, this is a lot of fun. Thanks, Mark, for highlighting this passtime!
