Top Goggle Searches

You can tell a lot about people from what they Google. And, now we can see the top Google searches state by state to, uh, conjecture on the state of the nation, so to speak.  Every U.S. states top Google searches for the year have been released and they tell quite a story about what Americans are curious about. The results ranged from mildly amusing to completely disturbing. No, I am not telling you my most frequent searches! Besides, you probably already have me pegged in the "disturbed" column.

 I suppose knowing what people in each of the 50 states is searching will come in handy for anyone trying to decide which state they want to buy a home in, especially for those curious how their potential neighbors spend their time online. I am already suspicious of my Portland neighbors but the results of top Oregon searches (provided for by 'Estatly' after sorting through 'Google Trends'). The top three here were 'Allah", "sex" and "spork". I suspect the Muslims who Googles "Allah" weren't the same folks who Googles "Sex". We all know that many Muslims deny the existence of sex web pages. That "Spork" thing is the name of a restaurant in Bend, Oregon. I have no idea why so many people Googles that. Maybe the Muslims go there for a meal and sex.

Here are a few random  top Google selections for some of the 50 states. This will probably warn you about them so you won't travel to any of them. Sad to say, every state has something strange that is a top three Google.

* Alaska- In Alaska they are fascinated about bestiality, because that was the third most Googled subject this year. Adult Friend Finder is the top choice, proving that if you want consistency, move to Alaska.
* California- Alcoholics Anonymous, Bros Before Hos, and  Dandruff Cure are the tops. The world already is aware that California is the land of craziness, but this suggests that the male population may have a problem finding women to settle down with.  'Bros Before Hos is  a belief that men should put their male buddies ahead of any woman they take an interest in.  That sort of fits with the idea that men who can't get a date have alcohol and dandruff problems (the other top choices in California)
* Georgia-  Athlete's Foot,  Butt Implants, Cooking Crack were the top three. I think that some of the dope heads in George meant to Google "Butt Crack" instead of Cooking Crack. After ingesting crack one tends to far more often notice things like butt cracks.
* Maine- Cat Pics, How to roll a joint, and Growing Marijuana are tops.  Cat owners in Maine must get stoned a lot.
* New Jersey- Bon Jovi,  Britney Spears,  and Cure for Baldness. You figure out that one. All I know is that I am staying far away from New Jersey.
* Pennsylvania-  Back Shaving,  Beer, and Competitive Eating. Quickly! Call 9-1-1. Pennsylvanians need help fast.
* Texas- Are dinosaurs real? and Are zombies real? were the two top Googles from Texans this year, proving also that Texas must be the state with the most stupid people.
* Washington-  Circumcision , Dungeons & Dragons, Gluten I suspect all the gluten they eat in Washington is responsible for the late night group Dungeon and Dragon circumcision chat.

May all your Goggle searches be as odd as these.
