Google, What are you Suggesting?

Google may be the world’s leading search engine (I think it’s going downhill), but sometimes they make some really odd suggestions while trying to be helpful.

Here are some unusual ones, but make sure you read the non highlighted ones as well.

Check out this bizzare ad for U by Kotex, where a woman takes her beaver out and really takes care of it. Women need to take care of their beavers.

Another great Australian commercial.

I think that first picture sums up this post pretty well. What the hell?

Nandos make average tasting burgers which are way over priced. They do make some fun commercials though, here’s one that shows Nandos is good for stripper mums.

Balloon Clothes and a Dinosaur

Apparently making clothes out of balloons is something people do. I’m not really sure how the dinosaur really fits within the whole collection, but I guess technically there is a guy wearing it… Anyway, enjoy!

Don’t Help Hot Chicks

If you see a hot chick who has broken down on the side of the road, think twice or Admiral Ackbar might pop up to yell “It’s a Trap!”

Wonderfully Awful Portraits

If I ever walked it a home where one of these was hanging (I’m sure they are!) I would be unable to move, mouth gapping open, wondering if I had just entered the home of a serial killer.

These people scare me…

Take the Ship for a Spin

LouVest – A time lapse video made by setting a camera to take photos at six second intervals during a trip outbound on the Houston Ship Channel. I used Quicktime to assemble over 2000 individual photos into a 3 minute movie representing an actual time of over 3 1/2 hours.

The ship was only moving at 5-6 knots for the first half of the trip and up to 10 knots in the open areas away from the docks. The journey begins just below the Port of Houston turning basin at the end of the channel and continues down to Morgan’s Point at the head of Galveston Bay. We still had 32 miles to go to get out to the pilot station in the Gulf of Mexico at that point. The ship is a Panamax tanker 600 feet long by 106 feet wide.
