Polish google bombing

A strange thing happens when you put in the Polish word for ‘prick’ into google.pl

If you type in the word kutas (prick) you get this result.

"Pedal" (gay) gives an interesting return too.

Ditto 'chuj'. Somebody must have paid a lot of money to google for this...

I'm still partial to typing in "miserable failure" in google...

Actually, no money changes hands. Google bombing works like this...

A few months ago when you typed the word "failure", the whitehouse.gov site was the first result back. Looks like that's gone now.

Seems that a lot of Poles work for Google. Some of them obviously do not like PiS.

For me it looks like manual manipulation in indexing results of google engine.

Anyway... I like it :-)

I'm sending this one out to the Poles among the respondents, not least to the 'beatroot' prankster: do you actualy find this amusing? ...you're yet to get past your anal phase, buoy!

All that endorse this (and other similar name-calling activities such as claiming L.K was a Putin-figure)constitute a bi-composite bunch of hate-mongers; a.)first group: complete and unredeemable morons instigated by b.)fanatics who, as Churchill once said: "can't stop and won't change the subject"!

Now...knuckleheads, approach! (I'm not talking to fanatics - fanatics, take a walk)) here's some food for your emaciated thought-generators: L.K, regardless of one's political views* or assessment of his performance, leaving aside medieval awe at him being identical twin** - apart from all that and when giggling subsides think of the simple fact that the site is that of Polish President and not a private one of your favourite hate-figure - L.K,
so, since I realy don't give a whiggy-what about all-so predictable multilateral jerk-off frenzy at what I'm saying that will surely ensue - Ima put it like this:
if you are over-18, are not on drugs at the moment and still condone it - my advice to you is to get the f#@^k out of this country because you are spitting in the face of all those that want to live here.

me (or anyone of similar stance) as all-polish youth-ster/Pis activist/undereducated and unemployed small-towner...I am - disappointingly, I know - neither. I am not even a great PiS fan although I see the K.bros. as the best we have had at the steerin wheel since 1989. and I am a 180 degrees-opposite of the remainder of yourpigeon-hole labels.

**it is flabbergasting how people posing as modern can actualy devote so much of their attention to the uncanny phenomenon of identical twins! - you're pretty much as refined and sophisitcated as the indigenous residents of Central Africa...

Kuba. All I was doing was drawing attntion to the activities of google bombers in Poland. This is a well known phenomena elsewhere on the net and I was just showing that it goes on here too.

And for google bombing to work it needs a lot of people to participate, and so is of interest.

I had nothing to do with it myself, as I have better things to do with my life.

well... it is your right to post what you fancy on your blog, so if all you have to say is lame "I had nothing to do with it myself" - it would have been better if you had told me straight to roam away;
- for one, I was not accusing you of actualy having been busy fiddling with every META section you'd menaged to hack into typing 'L.K=kutas' sequence in there over and over again until it popped up first in each and every google searches on either of the entries!

-that said, however, allow me to contest that this 'phenomenon' is 'of interest' because 'for google bombing to work it needs a lot of people to participate': as obviously - it doesn't and I dare say suspect you know that well enough. All it takes is a relatively small group of crafty positioners doing what I've just described, i.e inserting specific keywords into specific positions in the document's ssource's meta section syntax and who know a few more things in addition to that, not least the time of the year when Google sends robots to update databases. It is a common, if crooked, practice in pursuit of commercial goals and its long-term efficiency tends to zero as Google eventually kicks the perpatrator-url's out of its range completely (recently, BMW got spanked for that), but if you are after throwin some mud - you wouldn't worry much about long-term now, would you?

- then, even if it was the outcome of a genuine protest-movement of web surfers, so what? what exactly does it reaveal that has not been known already?...

so, please, I can still see you smirking with my third-eye- vision...

...and 'anal phase' is more or less equal to 'puberty' (actually its an original Freudean psychoanalytical vocabulary term)...just by way of explanation so that you won't start grinnin at a wrong time...

beatroot said...

I know it is a Freudean psychoanalytical vocabulary term..But it has nothing to do with puberty. Anal stage is actually around 2 to 4 years old, if I remember my psychology at uni. It’s also associated with people who are obsessively tidy – anal retentive – or very messy – anal explosive.

I would say you were a little retentive...(smirk).

"I know it is a Freudean psychoanalytical vocabulary term.". - a genuine teacher's pet, weren't you? Ok, so you know! you may not know the right from wrong, you may poorly discriminate between objects worthy of interest, either - but you can tell anal from pubertal, I give you that!
(...)but it has nothing to do with puberty(...)"
....if only you weren't that obsessively tidy with your terminology and had that ability of shifting focus from detail to broader picture you would see that of course it does have a lot to do with puberty, even though, as you dillligently pointed out - its not synonymous. I used one as metonymy for the general notion of 'immaturity' which also encompasses 'puberty'; I did so sacrificing the term's precision - useless in thi context as it was not a specialist psychoanalitical discourse - for the chosen phrase's rhetorical potential while still retaining sufficient semantic marrow of highlighting rather obvious primitivism and screaming immaturity apparent in a situation when several grown-ass men sit each in his own chair and all of them slobber and giggle over the miraculous occurence of the word 'dick' on the site of the country's Presidential Office..
Well, if you had that gift of broader view and some independence to show in your thinking, we would not be having this strange conversation in the first place: me trying to patiently endure through all your dodging and childish teasing and hiding behind issues of ever-lesser importance to see if I would be offered some serious arguments eventually, or is it just exactly what I thought...
So, jokes and word games apart, let me be blunt:
are you gonna put up or shut up?...are you gonna try to convince me that what you are doing in here is more than fart -and-run entertainment or are you going to pathetically 'i-didn't-do it' me alternated with some labelling on the side? ...
...use your head and you might see its not quite fitting for an educated man you so eagerly jump up to show yourself as at other, minor occasions and at the same time indulge in mud-throwing of the lowest sort witout a slightest trace of consideration to others - no matter how many times you might try to wave off what I've said as retentive.

...no answer. After all what possible answer could there be other than simple: sorry...

I've read most of your posting on ths blog and its palatable as long as you wade in the waters of problems of McDonald's and healthy food - keep to that! (just a piece of advice)
