Google Bombing

So the concept of Google Bombing seems to going the way of the dodo. Those party poopers!

For those of you unfamiliar with the topic, Google Bombing is the term used when someone (usually pranksters) links a derogatory term to another individual in an attempt to have that term bring up the person's name/web site as the first recognized hit in Google searches for the keywords.

So for the longest time, searching on the term "miserable failure" would bring up a direct link to the whitehouse.gov page for the President (hee hee hee) because enough bloggers and website publishers got in on the meme to link those terms to the page. The same goes for linking the term Scientology to Operation Clambake - a cheeky site critical of scientology. However, now Google has changed their algorithms to prevent all our fun! Hardly fair of them to spoil all that hard work that people put in.

I suppose they just want Wikipedia to be the first result for each and every search ever entered into their search engine. Too bad.

Sizeists - reprised

Sizeist? Ever heard the term? Sizeist is slang for a prejudice against a person because of their size. Be that person small or large - a sizeist doesn't like them because they don't fit the mold. [meen kyole] believes that sizes are a thing of the past and is looking to break that mold. Sizes aren't really even valid!

We've seen over time women who have grown, but their sizes didn't! So did we all shrink? No, the sizes grew! They grew because we chose not to; because our vanities would not allow us to buy bigger sizes. Now we are all for vanity - but that kind of self delusion is simply mindless. It doesn't do anyone any good, really, but it does make us appear rather silly. A size 0! What are you? A "nothing"?

Nobody has a perfect body, but anyone can have a perfect fit, a perfect design, a perfect look - just not off the rack.
