Speaking of Stats and Whatnot

Have y’all heard of Track Me Not? I hadn’t, until today. It’s a browser extension for Firefox.

I use Teh Google, but it sort of creeps me out to do so. They have access to a huge amount of information on their users, and they have turned into quite a behemoth. Even if their policy is to “Don’t be evil” (yeah, right), I don’t see why they should automagically be trusted to not be evil. Anyway, the less info a large company like Google has about their individual users, the better, I think.

Another keyword search that turned up was “turbocharged boxers.” My first thought was, “Of course they are turbocharged!”

And speaking of Miss Brown… I have mentioned before that she is kind of tweaky, and is generally afraid of men? She has decided that she really likes Scott. While he was over working on Mr. Computational Device, Harriet kept trying to crawl into his lap. She even wagged her nubbin at him, which was awfully cute. I don’t think she’s ever been that friendly with a guy, before, with the exception of my brothers.

Scott is Harriet Approved.

Statistics

While perusing my stats, looking at what brings folks here, two things jump out at me. The first is that I sometimes wish it were possible to shout, “Hey, wait, I can answer your question!” to visitors as they wander off in search of a more helpful blog. Because I can tell, by how their query is formed, that the post they Googled up will not have properly answered their question. Ah well.

For example: To the person who wanted to know if you can flush tampon applicators or wrappers. Some cardboard applicators can be flushed. Do not flush plastic applicators. Wrappers can probably be flushed, in a pinch, especially if they are made of paper. When in doubt, throw it in the trash instead of flushing it.

Secondly, why, oh why, in the name of all that is good in this world, would someone go a-Googling for–I kid you not–“sanitary pad and tampon porn pictures.” Aieee! What the fuck?! I know menstrual kink is A Thing In This World, but you will not find it here. NOT EVAR.

Why, yes, it is Feminine Hygiene Product Blogging Day. Why do you ask?
