There are something like 3.5 billion searches in Google worldwide every day. That’s roughly 40 thousand every single second.
Given those stats, some of them are bound to be a little…odd…like the ones people got talking about on this Reddit thread:
What’s something SFW that you’re embarrassed to have in your google search history?

Let’s get to the strange.

How many times I’ve had to google “child enemas”.
My son has a colon condition, but man it would be awkward explaining it all.

6. With friends like these.
My friend and I are both a wealth of random, useless facts a few weeks ago he told me that if you rub pork fat on a cats lips the cat would whistle, and there was lots of videos of it on YouTube, like an idiot I fell for it and googled “cat whistling with pork fat on lips”
– yuckyfingers
7. Godspeed.

I googled that and immediately regretted it.

12. False dichotomy.
I was helping clean out my grandparent’s estate last week, and I decided it was worth googling “vintage vibrator or curling iron?” before I went any further into their bathroom closet.
Spoiler Alert: It was a curling iron.

13. Sitting for dummies.
“How to sit on a couch correctly”
I have back pain and I feel like my couch sitting skills need to improve, but I still feel like a dummy for googling it.

14. Game on!
My husband and I play this strange game where we ask each other random questions.
We guess at the answers and then look it up to see if either of us are close.
We’ve recently discovered that birds don’t fart but it’s very likely that spiders do!!
Lol our search histories would be quite comical at times.
– MommaStlouis
15. Well that seems unnecessary.
