google yr mom

So if you've seen me drunk lately you've probably heard about my most latestest ramble against google.com. The other day, I was over-pondering the state of colloquialisms in my vernacular (and more importantly that of society as a whole) when I got caught up on 'googling'.
Its such a common term now that you can't practically avoid hearing/using it. I constantly find myself in conversations based on the subject and I am starting to become annoyed with the whole ordeal. "I don't know the answer to that question, why don't I just 'google' it" is the starting point for the thoughts of middle management and preschoolers alike. The verb 'to google' is as common as pointless ramble on my blog. Internet searchingerosity is now defined by a corporate trademark. Moreso, the trademark has slimered it's way into our vocabulary, fucking us over yet again.
Yes, its but another example of our willingness to accept the erosion of human expression (in turn culture?) in the name of blatant corporatism. While I do enjoy the benefits of this trend and ultimately am in support of it, I have beef with google on a very important but often overlooked level.
You see, the success of the company google.com has entrenched the paramountcy of the the website over a very special/now antiquated aspect of my childhood. The googly eye. Google (alternate spelling.. sorta) eyes used to be the bomb shit for craft making back in the day. You could instantly personify your fav inanimate objects, giving character to your otherwise lifeless things (only child much?).
People used to say "yea, I googled my slippers" on a more than regular basis (super-regular!) which meant they just went and glued a bunch of google eyes on their footwear. Nowadays you get a bunch of slipper websites with your googling, and I bet most of them dont actually google shit. In fact, I was hard pressed to find google eyes on the internet at all (only 314, 000 websites showed up when I 'googled' "googly eyes".... pitiful).
So really my question slash beef is "what the fuck happened to the companies that used to google shit???" I've read recently that there are 100's of people suffering from the recent collapse of the google eye industry. However, while many lives were ruined, the decline of google eyes was offset by the blossoming bobble head market. The bobble industry was the natural extension of google eyes, because the foundational science behind the two technologies is the same. Bobbling is googling. Trust me, theres algorithms and shit. But economists are now forecasting that the industry just didn't have the long run average cost curve to sustain its marginal returns (thereby bringing about the cessation of production).Basically, it means that while boggle heads are still currently hot and riding their initial novelty trend, google eyes will never fully be matched.
They are timeless.
Google eyes shaped our generation. Their constant unpredictable glances made us who we are. We look at the world with a lofty footed view that changes direction as quickly as its glued on. Google eyes are clearly the source of this cultural tradition as they were surely responsible for instilling it within us. Google eyes are pretty much to us what the rhinestone was to country music (googly?>?). They are the shit and I'm gonna let the world know. I actually plan to start googling some shit around vancouver. I've seen a lot of whack graf there recently, and it'd be funny way to start off the term. A little interactive project for the good ol' normally expressionless masses. Regardless of whether you'll like it google eyes are bringing google back. google yr stuff dawgs, stay ahead of the game.
