Google Salad — Revisited

It’s that time again, when I flaunt the list of keyword searches that has brought people to this here little website.

Yes, I keep a list.

Yes, I get giddy whenever there’s a new entry.

Yes, I giggle inanely at the screen, as if my laptop and I are sharing in our own private joke.

And yes, Mr Lannis is used to this. He stopped asking for explanations a long time ago, instead deciding he just doesn’t “get” it.

What’s to get? My blog receives hits for spastic keywords.

It’s awesome.

So I’m sharing because, well, then more of us can giggle inanely and have our spouses (or pets, as the case may be) scratch their heads in bafflement. And maybe we’ll help people find the answers they’re looking for!

(She says, pretending to be altruistic and not intending to mock innocent folks with possibly defunct Google-fu.)

Ready? Okay.

Chez Lannis


You, my friend, clearly were looking for this place specifically. Welcome! I hope the housekeeping hasn’t disappointed.

dont let anyone with bad eyebrows tell you shit quote

(Yes, I finally figured out how to decipher everything that was in the search field.) Is that a quote? Are you searching for a quote or just quoting yourself? Are you one of those people who uses air quotes extensively? (Because that’s obnoxious.) Are you accusing me of having bad eyebrows? I’ll own up to them being partially drawn in, but I’ve had compliments. And not bass-ackwards ones, either. I’m pretty sure “hey, nice arches,” means “hey, nice arches” when coming from an esthetician. So if I qualify as having good eyebrows, well, let me tell you some shit, bro—you need an apostrophe on that “dont.” Just sayin’.

Do these exist? Because I kind of feel like I would know about them if they did, which means I feel like I’m out of the loop. (This is like grade nine all over again.)

Yes, please say yes to Chez Lannis! Come for the nonsense, stay for the dip. (Um, but bring your own chips.)

Oh. I’m so sorry for your loss.

Too much. Also sorry for your loss, as well. Or, um, losses as you’ve got hamsters. (Maybe it’s cheaper in bulk?)
