When it first started, we knew we were in for something terrible when "flappy granny pussy" was splayed across the wall. Like the website, our office has now censored the searches. While we now have less insight into how truly sick people are on the internet and thus, in real life (or IRL which is a webism that is picking up steam), there are still plenty of poignant opportunities to peek into the otherwise private Global Village.

Automated Beacon is the Birdie in the Priest's Confessional Booth.
