Searching

I've mentioned before that Google Analytics shows me what search terms people use to reach my blog. I thought I'd share the most common, interesting, or just plain odd topics people search for that somehow lead them here:

Cleverly disguised as a responsible adult (141 hits)

Numerous variants and misspellings which search engines somehow saw through; several are looking for T-shirts with the phrase on it.

Calvin and Hobbes (104 hits)

Apparently, a number of people are interested to see what Calvin might be like as an adult. There were a couple of Sunday-style strips which showed this, but both are scenarios imagined by the still-juvenile Calvin and Suzie.

Aquaria (71 hits)

Some are curious about the alternate endings or want news about a sequel. (There isn't one, thus far.)

Thiomersal/MMR vaccine autism (25 hits)

People trying to find out if thiomersal causes autism. (Pretty much all reputable sources say it doesn't.)

Adult (25 hits)

People searching for stuff I'd rather not know about.

Manliness (24 hits)

People lookin' to be manly. One person wanted to know what manliness had to do with Old Spice.

Jurassic continents (13 hits)

More people are finding out every day that Africa and South America look suspiciously like the head of a Tyrannosaurus.

Jamie wants big boom (14 hits)

People looking for more MythBustery goodness. (New episodes began airing October 7th!)

Huuh (5 hits)

Why on earth was anyone searching for that?

Robert J. Walker (4 hits)

There are a lot people named Robert Walker out there, and even some Robert J. Walkers. Were they looking specifically for me? Or perhaps they wanted a former Secretary of the Treasury? Or maybe a previous member of the House of Representatives? (There are a couple of Hollywood actors who were named Robert Walker. One was born in Salt Lake City, no less. The other is his son, who portrayed Charlie Evans on an episode of Star Trek.)

Calvin Hobbes autism

Someone out there suspects that Calvin is autistic? I would have guessed ADHD, myself.

Robert Walker Star Trek

Ah, there's someone looking for Charlie Evans.

Avast!
