Fun with Search Terms

In my third month of blogging, my Internet visibility has increased.  I no longer have to rely entirely on my own Facebook links to get people to read my blog.  People are now finding my blog through search terms.

Most of these search terms are fairly ordinary and unremarkable: “Funny feminist,” “Feminist Bieber,” “Vampire Diaries Feminism,” are some of the popular ones.

But occasionally, readers find my blog through rather…interesting search terms.  “Curioser and curioser,” as Alice would say.

Let’s take a look at the more interesting ones, shall we? 

– Funny feminist names: The “names” part is interesting to me.  Is the reader looking for clever nicknames to mock feminists and accidentally stumbled onto a pro-feminist site?  Oops.

– Bridesmaids trailer burp: I reviewed the trailer for the movie Bridesmaids about a month ago.  Two people found that post by specifically searching for the burp.  Why?  Were they curious to see which character burped?  Did they want to judge the quality of the burp?  Watch the burp in slow motion?  WHO KNOWS?

– Darren Criss height: This one amuses me because I may or may not have googled this very information myself for my own nefarious purposes.  *cough*

– How I Met Your Mother Feminisem: Badd speling makes me LOL.

– Feminism, A Very Potter Musical: Someone was searching for a feminist review of A Very Potter Musical. I have not written one…but clearly, I should. *adjusts schedule accordingly*

– “Greg Wise” -coach -yates -basketball: Uh…I’m not the only one who doesn’t follow this train of thought or these Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon, right?

– My Justin Bieber Blog: Why are you looking for your own Justin Bieber blog?  Did you forget your URL?  Silly rabbit.

– Watch Diane Sawyer Sucks Sue Sylvester: That’s what she said.

– Virgin Cuckolded Me: I want to hear that story.  *opens popcorn*

– Bridesmaids Movie Trailer Fart: I am 99% sure that this was googled by a member of my mom’s side of the family.

– One Hilarious, Weird, Funny Feminist: Why yes, yes, I am!  Thank you!

– Darren Criss Girlfriend: Oh, I wish. How I wish.

– Hate the Glee Writers!: OKAY, I will!  Stop yelling at me!

– What is Austen Saying With Fanny Price?: I’m not entirely sure myself and would love for someone to explain it to me.

– Amber Riley More Talented Than Rachel Berry: This amuses me because the reader is confusing the actress with the character, though sources close to me do claim that Rachel/Lea Michele are not that different.

– Insults for Asshole Men: Ha!  I think “asshole” does just fine, frankly, but I always appreciate a dedication to expanding one’s vocabulary.

– Romantic Comedies Men Live Up To: I am very curious to know the gender of this searcher.

– Zefron Hudgens Abortio: Is Abortio a new “Zefron, J-Lo, RPatzz” type of celebrity nickname I’m not aware of, and is he/she having a threesome with Zefron and Hudgens?!

– Do Tina Fey and Sarah Silverman Hate Each Other: You’ll have to ask them.

– Vampire Diaries White People: There are a lot of white people in Mystic Falls, and I’m getting annoyed that all the non-Bonnie black people keep getting killed off.

– Glee Finn Puck Mpreg Fanfiction: Someone found my blog searching for mpreg fanfiction about Finn and Puck.  For those not in the know, “mpreg” is short for “male pregnancy.”  I have two questions: 1) How many pages did you search through to find what you were looking for?  2) Which one of them is pregnant in your scenario?

And finally, one that’s not funny at all:

– ”raping of lara logan video clip in abrat”: Why would you want to watch something like that?  What time do you have on your hands that you want to watch a video of a woman being raped?  I sincerely hope you were looking for this in a research effort and not because you get off on something like that.  Uch.
