1) Go to google.com (don't use a built-in google thing in your browser)
2) Type in (without the quotes) "George Clooney is" and wait for it to auto-fill.
3) Take note of the top auto-fill.
4) Now try (without the quotes - and be sure to delete everything in the search box after noting the top return):

"Patrick Stewart is"

"Joseph Gordon Levitt is"

"Daniel Craig is"

"Joe Flanigan is"

"Hugh Laurie is"

(Fine, you don't have to do all of them--just making a point.)


5) Now try:

"Martin Freeman is"

(Please don't spoil the answer in the comments, but OMG WIN BUT SERIOUSLY I mean, if it was going to be something *besides* what the others got, I for sure would have bet on the second return for him! I LOVE EVERYTHING \o/)

When fandom google-bombs, we do it right.

I have no idea how it began, but I never, ever want it to stop.

The fact that "Martin Freeman is Bilbo Baggins" is *second* to that?

\o/

I don't think it's working for me. What should it say?

Don't want to spoil others ;) - I'll find you elsewhere and tell you. Do you not have auto-fill?

Ah, wait, am I looking for what comes up when the drop-down occurs suggesting things that you type, rather than what comes up when you actually run a search on just "Martin Freeman is"?

Date: 2011-05-23 05:44 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] tzikeh.livejournal.com
Yes - what the top autofill suggestion is for each of them. You're not supposed to hit "enter." :D

Agreed! Unfortunately it doesn't work for Samuel L Jackson (I was expecting "a BAMF").

Oh, that's beautiful. I'm glad I'm home alone, because I laughed like a hyena.

If I come across him on the streets of Wellington, I'm not sure whether I'll be more embarrassed about writing slashfic featuring him or because I'll be thinking of that google result...

Date: 2011-05-23 09:38 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] tzikeh.livejournal.com
LOL - do you write slash fic about *him*, or John Watson?

Date: 2011-05-23 10:14 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] deepbluemermaid.livejournal.com
I write about John Watson (though I've read Martin / Benedict RPS). But still: I've never before met an actor whose character features in my fic. Just the thought makes me nervous!

That's the best ever!

(although "Tom Hanks is" is kind of amusing too)
