What bugs me is that Google clearly suspects that I’m a woman. I think it’s because shortly after buying this new computer I got on a cooking kick and wound up going to a bunch of girly cooking and home oriented websites.
So now I’m like, what’s up Google? Are my browsing habits not manly enough? How many car and gun forums am I going to have to visit before you realise what a manly man I am?
Because I need that validation from my search engine.
Pinterest can be just as amusing and apparently there’s some kind of data sharing going on. For instance, due to articles posted here on FR I’ve done some web searches regarding transsexuals, I’m not at all in favor of it and was looking for data on suicide, substance abuse, regrets. Certainly found it, in spades. I’m also a fan of GMC motorhomes, I had one land in my lap for a bargain price and have researched them pretty thoroughly as far as restoration.
So, guess what Pinterest sent me? Take a look (language warning, occasional portsmouth):
I actually ended up liking the guy despite his personal peculiarities, there’s a whole series of Youtube vids they did, really knowledgable, possibly an engineer, very mechanically inclined. The only thing I can figure out is his clear love for boobies somehow got internalized and he wanted a pair of his very own. His girlfriend doesn’t seem to mind.

My story ... Fishing buddy comes over and we are discussing the fishing trip we were planning for the following day, he says he saw a new interactive map that works with his Garmin but couldn’t remember the name ...
When I go to search the whole right side of the screen is ads for pink 6” heels and fru fru stuff
Buddy didn’t miss a beat, “Ya been holdin out on me boy”
He typed in “Cross Dresser” in the search term space and Sous Vide cookers and Bass Lures showed up as ads on the right... he said he was Just Checking.
(I had just bought Crocs and a Sous Vide from Amazon)
Had to kick him off my computer before he contaminated my search record any further...
