OMG! WTF? LOL ...

You'd think you're an L.E.O. or terrorist or drug dealer based on that.

I didn't know they profiled like that.  That's stunning.  I only switched
to Google from Yahoo over the past couple of years.  Yahoo's results
were always great from pages 2 through 10.  Their first page was really
bad.  However, they recently started with that auto-correct, auto-synonym,
search results where thousands of different but vaguely related terms
come up.  Google has begun doing this too ...  I think it's for smartphone
users who can't type an abbreviate everything.  I have to quote everything
know or add '+' in front of the quote to get a precise search.

Of course, I entered something like: "cbi floppy".
