I've noticed that the traffic on this site has taken a significant drop over the past week or so. Analyzing my stats, I see that I'm not getting nearly as many hits from Google image search any more. This isn't necessarily a bad thing; what I'm interested in is readers, not people looking for Britney Spears pics (and yes, in answer to yesterday's questions, I did actually post one picture of Britney before yesterday -- in my Britney/Paris Hilton caption contest).
Anyway, this discovery prompted me to do some experimenting with Google image search, and sure enough, I'm no longer the world's leading authority on sarcasm. If you look hard enough, you can find my sarcasm motivational poster, but on someone else's site. What's up with that?
Same thing with "Harry Potter Satanism." My "Satanism for Dummies" book cover pops up, but on someone else's site.
And the form that I tore out of the back of a Harry Potter book to request more information about Satanism is nowhere to be found (click to enlarge the picture).
(As a side note, if you really want a good laugh you should go back and read the comments that people keep leaving on my Harry Potter/Satanism post. How someone could read that post and not get that it was a joke is beyond me. It's sarcasm, people. Remember?)
Clearly these are pictures that need to be accessible to the general public, but they're nowhere to be found on Google. At first I thought maybe Google made some changes to their search algorithm (I know, you'd think I could just ask somebody at Google, right? Sadly, I don't even know what building those people work in. I think there may be a secret underground bunker somewhere). But then it occurred to me that maybe those images are just buried so far in my archives that Google is no longer indexing them.
And that's a shame, because people really need to be able to see what a Crack Whore Barbie might look like.
To test my theory, I thought I'd do a post filled with all of my most popular images. Which, in case you haven't figured that out yet, is what I'm doing right now. If I'm right, then my traffic should shoot back up again as a result of this post. By the way, if you're one of the people who, ahem, appropriated one of my images to use on your site -- don't worry, I don't mind. In fact, I love seeing my stuff on other people's sites. If you read the fine print over there on the bottom right, you'll see that you, as a blogger/webmaster/church newsletter editor/whatever, you are free to "copy, distribute and transmit" anything on this site. You can copy and paste entire blog posts if you want. All I ask is that you mention that you found it on my site.
Of course, if you want a picture of novelty testicles hanging off the back of a pickup, you'll have to ask these guys, because sadly I didn't fabricate this picture:
On the other hand, if you want a picture of something from the Scrotowear(TM) line of products, I can help you out.
I won't even bother to post my pictures of Air Force Sergeant Michelle Manhart nude except for some strategically placed body armor, or the USC song girl ass, because that's really not the kind of traffic I want.
Thanks for your patience. I'll be back with an all-new fabricated picture for the caption contest tomorrow.
