What’s in Your Google?

In a recent post, I discussed my love of Google. So I’ve decided to post a description of my most recent Google searches. Sometimes I Google multiple unrelated topics over the course of a day. Other times, one topic I Google will lead to another seemingly unrelated topic. But my crazy brain will make connections.

A few nights ago, I couldn’t sleep. And I got to thinking about dolphins. Weird, I know, but stay with me. So I was wondering if all dolphins are gray. So I googled it. Before I could read the answer, it occurred to me that dolphins are gray, but there are also pink dolphins. (They can also be black and white or blue). So if there are grey dolphins and pink dolphins, does that mean elephants can be pink? Hello again Google!

The answer is yes. Most African elephants are grayish brown, but they may appear to be red or brown. This is due to the color of the mud and soil found in their living environment. Elephants roll in the mud and dirt to protect their skin from the sun. Asian elephants can have pink patches of skin due to depigmentation as they age.

Oh that’s something I never thought about…Google can animals get sunburned? Yes! They can, especially animals that are have no fur, animals with light or white fur or…

Polar bears are white – WAIT! Does that mean…

Google?!?

And the answer is yes, Polar bears can get sunburned.

At one time or another, most people have been in a classroom with young children. One kid will ask a question. Then, 10 other kids will yell out questions inspired by the original one. You know the scene. Little Mae raises her hand and asks, “Why is the sky blue?’. And before the teacher can answer, 10 other kids yell out similar questions like “Why is the sky red at sunset?”, “Why are stars yellow?”, and ” Why are clouds white?””. And then there’s little Jimmy, the kid who asks “Why is my poop brown?”

There are at least 10 little Jimmys in my head, all asking seemingly random questions. While most people will think Jimmy’s question is unrelated, my brain thinks “All those questions involve colors, so I can see the connection!” See not completely random!

So now I have to ask, what’s in your google?

⭐ If your search history could talk… would it apologize or ask for therapy?
From pink elephants to sunburned polar bears, we’ve all gone down a few questionable rabbit holes.
