Google seems to give me a ridiculous amount of hentai when I try to search for anything.
And I feel unwilling to turn on Safesearch.

I think Youtube's suggestion system annoys me more.

I watch some video a jerk on Skype sends me... and suddenly youtube wants me to look at elephant videos.

HEY GOOGLE, I WEIGH 110 LBS AT 5'4" AND AM EXTREMELY FLAT-CHESTED. GOT ANY CLOTHES THAT FLATTER SLIGHTLY PEAR-SHAPED WOMEN? I'VE BEEN TRYING TO FIND 'EM FOR YEARS!!

The problem here is that I would actually be cool and HAPPY with targeted advertising if they ever hit the target. I have a really hard time finding stuff that I want, so some help would be nice! But no, instead the internet tells me I'm fat 9.9
Maybe Google thinks you want to look gangsta and wear shirts that are too large and saggy pants? :P

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

Technically if she wore a sweater way too large for her... she would be Velma.

That's...That's pretty bloody creepy. Now I'm paranoid about people looking me up.

Let's see...Going off of the information given on my profile page, Google yields...My Bay12 profile, a few threads on Bay12, two gambling sites I've never heard of, a people finder with the username linked to somebody else, and a Minecraft Forums account I made when I was like 10, which includes no information of me whatsoever. The username alone gives similar results, though it also gives the one-post blog of a small child who's pretty much completely unlike me in every aspect. As for my name, I get a few school projects that we made in the phase my school had in which I'm pretty sure they just now realized the internet was a thing, my extremely barren Facebook page, my even-more-barren Google+ page, and a few YouTube comments. Also, I know for a fact that I share both my first and last name with a Chinese man, since I stumbled across his Facebook page once while looking myself up for the hell of it. I also share my last name with an actually surprisingly popular gospel singer, so there's that running interference as well.

And this concludes our segment on absolute soul-crushing paranoia, brought to you by Flameboy99 (Real name [DATA EXPUNGED])

All I find when I google my aliases appear to be my Game Jam, My programming tutorial series, My steam account,  and Bay12 and Reddit stuff.

The fact that he was able to put the profiles together does provide proof-of-concept for the basises of many conspiracy theories.

Well, with the NSA's ongoing bullshit being public knowledge, it's more like conspiracy fact these days.

I googled my username and found my Minecraft skin and my steam account (which goes by a different name) in the first few pages. However, I'm not that worried, since there's a lot of other stuff from people who use phrases similar to my username.
