Google Image Whacking

August 12, 2002 - 5:47 pm 5 Comments

The mission:

Search on the Google Images search engine for an ordinary, everyday word. One that can be found in a dictionary. Come up with the most non-sequitur images that you can find.

For example, a search on “suspenders” comes up with this leg, these German WWII ammo pouches, and the Leaning Tower of Pisa.

Interesting.

    Oops. Sorry about that.

    What’s really odd is that was the first thing listed, the actual meat was 7th or 8th.

    it’s a (modified) painting by noted painter Francis Bacon…

    (a rather famous one, but I’m not recaling the name… it’s from his “screaming popes” period)
