no, don't "google" it, for that would be impossible since it is not a verb. Look it up on google.

What's annoying is the vegetable murdering squirrels. No, actually they piss me off.

"The Google" ohh nooooo , please please please don't refer to it as a proper noun. I think I would have take tranquilizers to calm my nerves from the discomfort. The horror, the horror.

superfido wrote:Well, damnit, they shouldn't. It's just wrong. It's like "ain't". The one who decided to include as a verb it must be some sod that uses it as a verb all the time. he probably "googled" the meaning of the word and found the def on wikipedia  What kind of source is that? Don't matter- this thread is now about garden vegetables.
