I was trying to find some statistics today on coerced abortion so that's what I entered in my Google search.

I got this:

Quote:
Coerced Abortion Gifts, T-shirts, Stickers and more - CafePressShop our large selection of coerced abortion gifts, t-shirts, posters and stickers starting at $5 . Unique coerced abortion designs. Fast shipping.
shop.cafepress.com/coerced-abortion - Cached


WTH?

I don't think I'll be doing any shopping at cafepress.

Have you ever had a search result in something that totally surprised you?

There are advertising web sites that intercept Google searches and supply "results" which they hope will attract people to click on the link and read the advertisements. You can use ad blocking software to filter them out.

@boomerang,
I get results that are all over the place. If I want to minimize the commercial hits I would use "Coerced Abortion FAQ" FAQ doesn't always lead to Frequently Asked Questions, but it helps eliminate most of the retailers.

@boomerang,
Google didn't get to be a multi-Gazillionaire company by just helping kids do their homework, Boomer.

Some of Robert's hamburgers and umbrella drinks are paid for by Google ads. [cue George and Jerry] "Not that there's anything wrong with that."

@djjd62,
Sounds more like a late 70's punk band to me DJ.
