Flutterby™! : When did Google get so f-ing weird?

Sancho Panza's Thoughts — When did Google get so f-ing weird?

I've largely gone to Startpage as my search engine, but I've seen similar things, where search terms are taken as laments to be commiserated with rather than, you know, search.

I kinda feel like we're going through that period where Google retargeted itself from searching on the phrase to attempting to parse the phrase as a question, only... more surreal.
