Well, there was this one time when I wanted to find a forum for homestar runner. I went to Google and typed in Homestar Runner Forum. I found this cool site called "Homestar Runner Wiki", it was pretty cool. Then I went to the forum and signed up. A few weeks later I came upon a topic called "Google", so I posted, and then I was writing about this one time I was using Google to find a forum and... *rambles on*

Coach Z stares at Bubs. Bubs stares at Coach Z. Coach Z grabs his listerine and stucks it down. Bubs takes out his CD! Bubs throws his CD straight at Coach Z. CZ gets his cheek skimmed, but luckily dodges it! CZ spits a big listerine loogie! It hurtles at Bubs, but missed! It splashes into a wall and soaks Bubs. CZ looks back to find the CD coming back at him. CZ jumps and spits a spray attack at it. It starts to waver, but hit CZ in the stomach. The CD bounces back at Bubs and hits him in the head. They both fall to the ground. The winner is.... CD!!!!

Uh, no. I meant "by using the popular search engine Google. The one with the most number of results wins."

So, I searched Google:

Results: Coach Z with a bottle of mouthwash
http://www.google.com/search?q=Coach+Z+with+a+bottle+of+mouthwash&sourceid=firefox&start=0&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8
and
Bubs with a CD of 5000 email addresses
http://www.google.com/search?q=Bubs+with+a+CD+of+5000+email+addresses&sourceid=firefox&start=0&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8

Coach Z with a bottle of mouthwash wins!

Also, for the Bubs one, look what's first.

Four things that have improved my life in the past year:
  1. Google
  2. Firefox
  3. NPR
  4. Wikipedia

Lessons learned:
  1. Never search for anything on Google Images when you're at work, without first making sure SafeSearch is turned on.

Or, as much of forever as one can fit between 1998 and now?

I used Google before it was popular. That makes me cool, right? :) Yeah, I use it for everything I could need to know.

I have no clue how Coach Z can actually use a bottle of mouthwash if he doesn't have a mouth!

Once Google and Strong Bad teamed up against a Ninja armed with Febreze and soundly defeated him.
Image

In a subsequent challenge, Google teamed up with the Ninja to take on Strong Bad with Febreze. Once again, Google wins.
Image

The conclusion? Google is obviously one of the most powerful forces in the universe.

Actually, here are the official results:

Google: 61,200,000

H*R Wiki: 22,500

Unfortunately, not even the awesome might of the H*R Wiki can stand up against the near-infinite power of the popular search engine Google

Thanks to this forum, I can no longer refer to simply Google. I must call it The Popular Search Engine Google(TM). Yes, I say the TM.
