My thumbs, or rather my fingers typing, embarrassed me today. I guess it was karma for yesterdays event.
So I was in Veterinary Science on my laptop. This one girl's hair inspired me to do a Google image search for a certain infamous hairstyle. I was trying to find an image of like those hispanic women with those tightly pulled-back overly-gelled ponytails with those bangs that are flipped both backwards and normally...You know what I am talking about, right? well so i typed "really tight ponytail reversed bangs mexican"... it seemed innocent enough... and well, I guess Google has a dirty mind. Somehow the safesearch on my Google had gotten turned off, and instead of showing me images of what I was actually referring to, all that came up was graphic porn. Not even one innocent hairstyle. And everyone around me saw it. And looked. And commented. And I tried to explain what happened. And it was only then that my good friend Ali Raza pointed out how my phrase could be easily misinterpreted.
Despite being embarrassed, I still was determined to find that hair style I wanted, which mind you I still can't. So i went back to Google and cleared the search. Then I clicked on the links part to put on safesearch, but my previous search appeared again. And up again came that graphic porn. I am convinced that one of the people that used my computer took off safe search at some point. Hahahahah. I was sooooo embarrassed. Although the guy sitting next to me thanked me.
On a lighter note, I would like to pay tribute to other primates who share my love of thumbs.
I give you the awkward organism of the day: the Proboscis Monkey. These dudes are awesome. I hope you think so too.
