This seems like a bad place to put a town

[–] [email protected] 35 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Say that to the average Dutchman

THAT'S A BAD PLACE TO PUT A TOWN.

I ain't afraid of no Dutchmen.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (2 children)

You should be. On average, 1 in 6 children will be abducted by the Dutch.

I feel like there is some kind of followup or reference that I am missing here.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

It's from the game Portal

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Well I'm not a child, so

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

No need. Only the average Dutchman. And he's only average, so...

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

A flying one however...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Stupid joke we tell here.

Why are Dutchmen so big ? If the dike ( dam in this case ) breaks they are able to keep there head above the water.

I feel like it'd just give you pictures of happy couples doing SFW couple things or old dudes at pride. Even with safe search off, it's not like the phrase is explicitly pornographic. In my experience, you need to be very direct to get NSFW stuff in general from Google.

Maybe I'm just deep into the queer community, but this meme feels like it was made by a person who sees homosexuality as inherently taboo or lewd. Kinda stale tbh

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yeah I checked, very wholesome old men in rainbows or posing as couples. A few shirtless.

Pornhub gives different results so im guessing this is for straight guys searching Gary Oldman there.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

What search engine did you use? Cause if you search Bing, and go to the image or video results with SafeSearch off, you get exactly what the meme expects.

But to be fair, everyone knows that Bing is for porn.

You just get back that little meme of the gay uncles who have the same shirt pattern and it's a pleasant moment to reread.

Back during the late 90s era of internet, I got into a MASSIVE amount of troyble over a finger slip in a high school computer lab.

We were all assigned an African country to write an essay about. We had to only use internet cited sources.

I was assigned a country with the Namba people. Somehow I fat-fingered an "L" in there in the worst places. (Between the 'b' and the 'a' - don't google it)

It triggered my school's search filter. Altavista got involved. It was a nightmare.

The police got in contact with my parents, thinking I was being groomed and in danger of kidnapping.

It sucked.

For those that want to know what it is, but dont want to risk searching:

____

North American Man/Boy Love Association

Fucked up organization, but not really all that scary to search

Wasn't there a south park episode about them?

My parents ran a business named my last name and owned the respective reyalilastname.com domain. In the late 90s, my dad had a page on his site with widgets of the top 6 or so search engines. It was a great place to easily jump between Yahoo, AltaVista, Ask Jeeves, etc.

I was in the computer lab with my 6th-grade class kicking off some research project and recommended this page to my teacher who suggested it to all the students. That’s when I learned some classmates didn’t know how to spell my last name, and that removing 1 letter from my last name went to a porn site.

My name is nowhere near anything profane. It would be like McKenzie > McKenie or Saunders > Sanders. Literally nothing that would make you think ‘porn.’

The teachers didn’t notice, but several classmates asked me wtf my parents did. I was an awkward, nerdy kid who hadn’t accepted yet that I would never be popular and I believed providing a really good tool like that would help me achieve the popularity I craved (yeah, helping people do better on their class assignments was what I thought would make me cool—no wonder I wasn’t popular!). I remember feeling that hope just draining from my body as the misspelled page started popping up all over the computer lab.

I thought I knew where this was going when you said "African country" and "finger slip".

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

I'm too scared now to ask AI how many g's there are in Niger?

[–] xav 1 points 2 months ago

TL;DR: NAMBLA, it sucked.

Furries with a thing for Scar from The Lion King get real careful hitting the R and not the key just to its right when they are searching for "scar porn."

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Or dropping the first “r” and being blinded by ska porn.

🎺🎺🕴️

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Or leaving the r and also hitting the key next to it, could see some wild insertion pics

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Or leaving the r and pressing the key on the other side

Googling to find ideas for a lemon-themed party

I get your joke, but I'm going another way

I deal with tailings dikes at work - this was a cool read

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Better hope you have safe search on.
