Finding out what people are really about in this world

Have you noticed how Google suggests search terms as you type in whatever it is you are searching for? Well, I always think it is a useful tool to find out what people are really about in this world. I mean, Google probably only suggests those choices based on what everyone is searching for, right? Well, to illustrate what I mean, take a look at these screenshots. I started out by typing some words, and let Google do the rest.

The top things that people forget – in today’s world, the number one thing that people forget is their password:

How people sleep:

This is what people think about their wives:

and their husbands:

and their kids:

and here’s what the kids think:

And people’s top needs:

If you are a girl:

And if you are a boy:

So, as you can see, you can learn a lot about people through Google. Go do some learning of your own.

Some pranks to play on your office mates

The Internet gives us the opportunity to discover the funniest things – today I found some photos which depict some really cool pranks that people played on their office mates – by redecorating their cubicles. Maybe, you want to do that next to your colleagues. For every photo that you look at, just imagine if that was your cubicle when you arrived in office one morning. Here you go, have a look:

Another comic about good code

I love comics, because they often put the true reality in your face. Have you seen the comic about the only measure of code quality? Well, here’s another comic (this one by Geek and Poke) which describes exactly what good code is. Great one :)

A little bit of OS humor

I came upon this nice and funny image below about how various OS fanboys see their OS as compared to other OSes. It is not clear who is the owner of this to me, since it appears on so many sites, so I will just give the attribution to the place where I first saw it, which is the blog of Joey Devilla. Here’s the image:

You can head over to his blog for other funny stuff (search for the funny tag), or for some techie stuff, which is also spread throughout his blog.

Nothing funnier that kiddy-speak

One of the most interesting sites on the Internet is one that was put up by Scott Hanselman (as a way to record the words of wisdom of his kids). He opened it up so that others could make submissions as well. The site is called overheard@home. Here are some classic examples from the website:

3 yr old, watching the second hand…

"It’s 7 o’clock….now it’s 8 o’clock…now it’s NINE o’clock!!!"

And this one:

Watching the Pixar movie "WALL-E"

7 year old – "ha ha, WALL-E thinks the booby trap is a pair of sunglasses!"

Me – "Erm, that’s not called a booby trap, its called a bra."

What about this one:

3.5 year old girl to her mother: “Mama, who hatched me?”

Mother: “I GAVE BIRTH to you, honey.”

Daughter: “And Max too?”

Mother: “And Max.”

Daughter: "So you had TWO children!?"

Mother: "Yes."

Daughter: "And what did daddy do?"

There are so many gems on that website that you can go on and on. And it is updated regularly as well. I have it in my bookmarks.

This is how we roll in India

This video has been doing the rounds, and since it was shot about 10 kilometers from where I live, I thought it would be appropriate to share it:

Honesty, the best policy?

One of my favorite cartoonists recently reminded us that honesty is the best policy… or is it? You decide:
