Piccadilly weepers.

I was reading a story by M. R. James and could not begin to guess what they are.

world psychiatric association soviet union

I was giving a conference presentation today on punitive psychiatry in the Soviet Union and I left some of my notes at home, so I wanted to verify a date quickly before I presented. In the end no one asked about international responses so I didn't need it. Not too interesting, sorry.

Piccadilly weepers. Because I read your post and wondered. Before that it was "Mushroom spore propagation". (We are growing oyster mushrooms.)

Mine is also now Piccadilly Weepers.

Don't Google that! Let me save you some time.
"Piccadilly Weepers" is what you get when you have prostate issues.
Time for the Depends…

Last thing I Googled was NZ GMT. :)
Those buggers are 12 hours +. Can you get more than that?

Do Google maps count? I sometimes use satellite or streetview for visual research and did this yesterday before visiting a particular spot. Naturally enough, a guy came out wanting to know why I was lurking behind his bins.
I told him I was trying to identify a small songbird, because the truth - "looking for a weak point in the cemetery perimiter, where a vampire hunter might easily enter under cover of darkness" sounds a little bit dodgy.

Weird al the saga begins back on May the 4th for Star Wars Day.

Posted at 7:05AM, May. 7, 2016

This is something I would prefer not to see, especially at a weak point in a cemetery perimeter. Although maybe Weird Al could make it work, as he does with so many other things.

Printer cartridges. Did you know it costs over $400 to replace all the cartridges in my printer when it runs out?

Working on the penciling for Chapter 5 of my comic I "got" to look up what a major burn looks like and a cheek laceration.

WHY?! What kind of comic am I writing?! I just wanted a cute little magical girl story!

…I'm hemophobic!…

My work demands that I google all sorts of things work-related, so those don't count… Last think I googled just 'cause I wanted… Hmmm… I remember googling 'If Jesus was a girl' and reading several links, including a good discussion on the Straight Dope boards…!

The same thing I google every night, Pinky. How to take over the world!

Posted at 10:05AM, May. 9, 2016

Google Pinky TA!
The last thing I Googled was the temperature of liquid Ozone. It's not that cold… Liquid nitrogen is MUCH colder. Liquid Ozone is prettier though- ultramarine blue to dark indego and violet.

I just googled eli5.

Marder III. I wanted to review the main gun types on the different variants.

Adobe CS3 serial number invalid

I tried opening Photoshop and all of a sudden it wants the license agreement and serial number again. And then I'm checking the number again and again to locate a nonexistent typo when the number is rejected. Hoping system restore does its magic because Google didn't.

"Writing teists in stories" (I think I meant 'twists')
"Scary clowns"

Posted at 6:07PM, Jul. 6, 2016

In order; my last 5 searches:

"Gaping Chest Wound"
"Holocaust Bodies"
"Ilsa, Shewolf of the SS"
"Burning Humvee"
"Modified D9 Bulldozer"

In my defense, I was not just looking these things up because I have some weird kink, although I was fascinated to find that Ilsa apparently wasn't so twisted that they couldn't make 3 sequels of it.

"Asthma Foundation WA"

I needed their logo. -_-

Not nearly as fun as lba's weird sex fetish! :D

Now what I can't figure is how you got from Ilsa to burning HMMV and modified bulldozer.

Of course I have all four Ilsa movies on DVD. Interesting that one was even directed by that master of 1970s horror-porn Jess Franco.

Nazi atrocity is an interesting sub genre of gore/grind house cinema of the 1970s. Ilsa:She Wolf of the SS is just the best known example.

My last few searches to show mundane I am:
Humbrol enamel cockpit green
Humbrol h250 desert sand
Ace 1/72 centurion

Two are paints I am having trouble finding and the last was checking price point on a new model kit.

"Shittyflute"

The legend of shittyflute is looming large on the internet, so I had to find out more. After a long search, I have finally found shittyflute's YouTube channel. Now, he or she is currently my favorite musician!

"time it takes to run a mile"
"christmas lights"
"beagle colors"
"hamiltonstovare"
"amphicyon"

The top three were webcomic research. The others were mentioned by someone, and I wanted to see pictures and know more.

Eh… you'd be surprised what professional illustrators find themselves looking up. Not by far the most disturbing or disparate things I've ever searched for.

It more had to do with an attempt at a tangent search, trying to find the real-life individual those movies were "based on" because I couldn't remember the name Irma Griese ( Go ahead and look that up, for anyone who wants to know what a sick f**k truly looks like. ). The graphic novel I was contracted to work on as an editor/inker has two parallel stories running about a current Iraq vet doing their tour and returning to cope with PTSD, along with the story of his grandfather fighting in north Africa and Sicily before being captured as a Jew and sent to the camp where she was a guard before coming home and coping with PTSD in a time they didn't have words for it.
