Unfortunate googling

Aristotle on 2006-01-07T16:01:11

Apparently, it’s surprisingly wacky to Google your first name, prepending “unfortunately”:

  • Unfortunately Aristotle was one of the exactly 100 articles done before this date – Sorry. :-(
  • Unfortunately Aristotle’s wife died about 10 years after their marriage.
  • Unfortunately, Aristotle himself was too caught up in the prejudices of his own time to recognize that his argument refutes itself.
  • Unfortunately, Aristotle is less helpful here.
  • Unfortunately Aristotle is quite difficult to read.
  • Unfortunately, Aristotle’s ideas were quite useless when it came to firing cannons accurately.
  • Unfortunately Aristotle didn’t also warn me of another bit of wisdom that I later learned in the school of hard knocks.
  • Unfortunately, Aristotle’s is no longer a believable program.
  • But, unfortunately, Aristotle didn’t think that all of us were human.
  • Unfortunately, Aristotle’s syllogisms are deeply buried in most of our psyches.

The joys of having an extravagant first name…

But try this yourself, the results are pretty entertaining (for 2 minutes) regardless of name (so long as it’s your own).

Very good...
Unfortunately, JJ's tank was positioned right next to the trained and friendly killer whales...

Didn't work so well with my first name. :-) (being a verb in english and all).

And my full name had no matches prepended with unfortunately, even if Google currently has more than a million pages with my name. :-)

Yeah, your name isn’t extravagant so much as just weird-when-used-in-English. The joys of being a foreigner, I suppose. :-)

Amusing

Unfortunately, Rhesa was adopted by another member a few years back and is unavailable.

Life is too serious not to be able to laugh at

mr_bean on 2006-01-09T06:00:14

Ha! Ha! Ha!

If you can't laugh at your name, you don't take
it seriously enough.

Your name is too serious, not to be able to laugh
at.

A name is a name is a name.

A name by any other name would smell as sweet.

Excellent. :-)

Rather disturbing...

bluto on 2006-01-09T15:56:18

I'm not sure I want to know the context of this one, and I'm certainly not going to admit any truth to it...

Unfortunately, Bluto then accidentally eats some himself and thinks Olive is a calf who needs branding.

Sounds like an excerpt from a Popeye story.

Sidhekin on 2006-01-20T16:01:29

Good one!

Unfortunately, "Sidhekin" was not found prepended by "unfortunately" (hey, will this be indexed?), so I had to use my real name. The best two:

Unfortunately, Eirik never reached the Holy Land; he fell ill of a fever and died in Cyprus, [...]

Unfortunately Eirik doesn't come here... only Erlend, which seems A bit logical because this place is all about Erlend.
