Googlewhack!

- Start date
If you have to know, I was reading this "What if?" over at XKCD, and at the section where he mentions meaningless jumbles I thought about other non-words (to us, anyways), that seem at least somewhat word-like, and thought I should google it, and there was a hit.
THEN, at the section in the "What if" about information theory I associated to that old ST:TNG episode "Darmok" (they don't make TV shows like that anymore, do they?), and I decided I might as well make a post here at B3D about my discovery...
So do you have a whack of your own to add you sodding yank?!
(Full disclosure: yes. Mildly bored.)

No. I'm too f*cking nervous and pumped up about my first two bike races since 1987 being tomorrow...I have to race cat 5 for 10 starts before I can join the real races, but I'll have 2 out of the way in less than 24 hours...maybe trying to find a whack would distract me some...as it seems work isn't.
And he did an excellent comedy tour on it. The DVD (imaginatively titled "GoogleWhack Adventure") is definitely worth a watch if you haven't seen it before

Way to go, good luck! ...Although I might be a bit late? Dunno with the time difference and all.
My dad's competing in the Swedish national veteran swimmers championships this weekend. At 75 years old and with a bad ticker (valve crapping out, plus arrhythmia), he'll only participate in two or three events this year (mixed relay, plus individual 50 meter freestyle)... *sigh* Oh well. Whatever makes him happy.
I was just about to complete my first marathon
but the swines changed the name to snickers
LOL
Very funny!!
BTW this is whackiest thread I visited for quite some time!
Gratz to Mize for finishing in points on his first race :smile:.

I've witnessed the creation of a new googlewhack! linking without quoting, for the hope of preserving it.

Not correct, actually.
A Googlewhack was two actual real words used together - not a newly 'invented' word:
