friend showering pics

Posted in General at 12:19 am by BestFriendChris

So, every once in a while I get curious and take a gander at my web stats. This gives me such useful information such as:

  • Browser variety
    • 1/3 Firefox (read: me)
    • 1/3 IE
    • 1/3 Misc (read: search engine spiders)
  • Operating System variety
    • 1/3 Windows
    • 1/3 “Unknown” (Not including correctly identified Mac/Linux/Unix/Symbian)
    • 1/3 “Known robots” (Such as Iron Man and Bender from Futurama I’m guessing)
    • 2/100 Misc (See “Unknown” above)
  • Status Code (It turns out that only 75% of hits on my site are “OK”)

There are two other reports (my favorites) that I really want to focus on now. First of all, we have the “Referring Site Report”. This is a list of where people were at when they click on the link to my website. The usual suspects are there; Google, MSN, Blogger, Technorati, etc. Every once in a while you’ll get a good one, but it’s rare.

The jewel, and actually what this post is supposed to be about (no, seriously), is the “Search Query Report”. This marvelous report gives me a breakdown of what people are searching for when they end up finding my website. By far the most searches are for ThoughtWorks. More specifically, they are for the interview practices at ThoughtWorks. That’s not all that interesting to me. The fun, as usual, lies in the outliers (Lies in the outliers? Hrm…)

friend showering pics: Not only is it shocking that there are people on the interweb searching for pics of a friend showering, but either they were using a search engine so awful that it skipped over all of the porn and jumped straight to my site, or, even worse, they had looked through all of it already and finally reached me. I’m really not sure what post they ended up on, but I really don’t want there to be a single post known as the “Red Light District” of bestfriendchris.com

fedex number mysore: While I’d like to think I provide a little bit of information on this site, I do think it is a little unreasonable to think that I would have your fedex number posted. And seriously, why are you shipping Mysore anyway? It seemed to be just fine where it is.

germany flight itinerary: If I’m going to be providing the fedex number for shipping ancient cities, I may as well provide the flight itineraries for countries as well. Does this mean that you can ship a city, but for a country you have to by an extra seat on the plane to bring it with you? Interesting…

hindi phrases cricket: Unfortunately, I barely know any cricket phrases in English, let alone Hindi…

jennifer love hewitt true.com: This is a good one. My guess is the searcher (search-ee?) found my guilty pleasures post (see below), which, sad to say, does not give you any information on how to date JLH.

name some guilty pleasures: Um… Ok. Hopefully, they weren’t looking for seedier (more seedy?) items…

what are the interview exercises given by thoughtworks: At some point, it’s just cheating…

faraday vs everlife: Obviously some brilliantly observant individual has also noticed this insane scheme to take over the world. (Step 1: Produce a product and market it with two different names, with the same ad campaign. Step 2: ??? Step 3: Take over the world.)

typhoid going to work: Yeah, you probably shouldn’t go to work if you have typhoid fever… But, I’m not a doctor. I just play one on TV.

how to get your best friend back for children: So, I looked. I really, really looked. I simply can not find the post I wrote on reconciling problems with your best friend in order to impregnate them… If I could find it, trust me. I’d link to it. :-)

my lunch break: So, was this person looking for information on their lunch break, or mine? I hope the person searching for this found something to eat and wasn’t waiting on me to write about it…

So, that’s it for now. Honestly, the friend showering pics search made me laugh so hard, I had to go pour myself a glass of milk, just so I could laugh it out my nose. Hilarious.
