I hadn’t checked the Stats on wordpress for a while, mainly because it would depress me to be reminded that this blog has like eight readers, but today I decided to dive in.
I had forgotten that because I use song lyrics as post titles people end up reading my posts when they really don’t mean too.
For instance someone googled “someone who is edgy” and they ended up on this post about Sarah Palin being a cunt because Footsie used a Johnny Cash lyric.
Oddly the most common one of these is someone searching for “you’re like a disease without any cure,” which is from the Better than Ezra song “Laid” and ending up at this navel gazing post from August. Better than Ezra didn’t really have much staying power. I’m surprised so many people google their exact lyrics. Actually on second though they are the exact band that would experience this. People vaguely remember the song and then google to find out who sang it.
Some of my favorites (in ascending order of hilarity)-
Googled Term: “hand me down dress”
Resulting Post Subject: Media Sexism
GT: “cured sickness”
GT: “footsie love”
RPS: Jane Harmon’s wealth
GT: “Old man making love”
