I think I may have mentioned this before, but there’s a natty little feature on this blog that allows me to see how people stumble across my occasional ramblings.

The part that has started to amuse me (sad, I know) is the Search Engine Terms section. This keeps a log of the words people have typed into their search engine which led them to my site. (There are, for example, a fair few people who — for reasons best known to themselves — type “spacemonkeygaz” into Google, as opposed to the far more laborious task of typing it in the address bar and adding “.com”)

But that’s not the bit that amuses me. Oh, no — t’would be tragic were that the case. The bit that amuses me is the list of the things people out there in Internet Land are searching for when they arrive at this site and, in particular, the thought of the disappointment on their faces when they do.

Some nerds

Here are some of the best search engine terms that — for whatever reason — brought people to spacemonkeygaz.com:

• jedward appearances december 2009
• gavin and stacey curry
• crowning turd
• cheeky girls get fucked
• gavin & stacey clubbing in leeds
• who plays hywel jones in gavin and stacey
• jedward theme for sony ericsson
• i hate welsh men
• fun house pat
• jedward fucked
• ironic stripping
• jedward gay
• joe bastardi blog entry
• he man the cartoon characters

I swear the above list is, while not exhaustive, completely and 100% genuine. Even the “i hate welsh men” one (which to be fair is the type of thing I’d say) is real and not slipped into the list for comedic effect.

The worrying thing for me is that someone felt compelled to search for “jedward fucked” I hope they meant metaphorically fucked as opposed to… well, you know what I mean.
