There is no point, Chickie...that's why it's in this section of the Forum!

I think it works by parsing the raw text output of a google search, and picking out phrases which a) contain the searched for word(s), b) make vague grammatic sense, and c) are funny, insulting, rude or just plain weird when taken out of context.

Apologies, BTW, to anyone who got slightly more colourful results than they bargained for :sorry . I didn't try typing a female name in until well after posting, and since we're talking about something which uses google (which searches the net on an uncensored basis), and bearing in mind what half the internet consists of...you probably shouldn't put this to the test in the office...
