Thursday Thirteen #40


13 Top Google Searches For "John Needs _____"


Idea shamelessly stolen from Our Seven Qtpies. Go to Google, type in "your first name needs" and report the results.

The meme is supposed to be the first 10 results, but I'm making it a Thursday Thirteen by taking the first 13 results.

1. Strange News: 'John' Needs Operation After Hooker Bites Penis For Non-Payment. It wasn't me. I swear.

2. John needs your bone marrow. I hate vampires. Blood is never enough for those suckers.

3. John nees to get his patootie back here. From a forum post. I hate the word "patootie." It's forever linked with Rosie O'Donnell, and therefore stained.

4. My Life's Work: John needs… Another blog doing this very meme. Go figure.

5. John Needs Help: AnimeNation Anime Forums A guy named John who has a Ask John thingy on an anime forum, is himself asking for help. Even egg heads need help now and then.

6. Vimeo / John Needs More Paper. A video of a guy trying to use newspaper and duct tape to cover his patio table. Oooo-kay.

7. Sex, Lies, and Scandals, The Private Life Of John C. Wu: Some guys old blog. No recent entries.

8. See Me As Your Brother…John Needs Your Help Please: Kind of like the Nigerian Lottery Email Scam, only different. A dying man wants you to help him distribute his fortune.

9. Flickr: Photos from John Needs New Ideas. A guy's Flickr photo site. I'm not a big fan of Flickr, the pics are too small.

10. OH-16: John Boccieri Called To Service Again / Buckey State Blog: Best I can tell, an Ohio state senator being put forward to run for US Senate. Snore.

11. 'John' Needs Operation After Hoooker Bites Penis For Non-Payment: Same story as #1, on a different site. It still wasn't me. I swear.

12. Late For The Sky, John Needs, John Wants, John Gets: A guy named John's blog post about this very meme.

13. Berwick Today News - John needs help to find late mother's ring: Cool story. A guy in England buries his mother's ring in the place where she used to love to sit and enjoy a view. Apparently someone with a metal detector found it an dug it up, he went to the place and there were holes dug all around, and the ring was gone. He appeals to have it returned. Yeah, that'll happen.


The purpose of the meme is to get to know everyone who participates a little bit better every Thursday. Visiting fellow Thirteeners is encouraged! If you participate, leave the link to your Thirteen in others comments. It’s easy, and fun! Be sure to update your Thirteen with links that are left for you, as well! I will link to everyone who participates and leaves a link to their 13 things. Trackbacks, pings, comment links accepted!

Qtpies7 said...

You made me tear up on your comment on my darling little boy's smile! You have no idea what a joy he is in our lives! All kids are a joy and a blessing, but he is a promised child and we waited almost 7 years for him, and he is JOYFUL all the time. You can't look at him and be sad, you just can't! I'm described at church as "She's the one with the baby who always smiles." He brings joy to everyone.
But I hope he doesn't get teeth for many more months, cause even though he does it with a smile, he bites.

This cracks me up. :) I'm doing this next week for my TT

Funny list! Great idea! That story from England about the mother's ring is so interesting. When my husband's mom died one of her rings disappeared and we're sadly convinced it was stolen post-mortem...ick, so sick and wrong!

Leighann said...

Great idea for the TT! Loved reading it!

Carina said...

Hmmm. Some of those are just frightening. I don't get any results with that meme because my name is weird and very unique.

KarenW said...

Those searches are always interesting. Scary sometimes too!

TeaMouse said...

John you have been busy!

Janet said...

#13 reminds me of a scene from the movie Harold and Maude :-)

The Rock Chick said...

Ok, I always thought that being in the bill collection business would not be a good career choice for me, but after reading #1, I'm 100% positive.

She could have used a tip from Lorena :)

Happy TT! Loved the list-really funny!

Thanks for stopping at my tt and reminding me that crying is therapeutic. Qtpies7 did a search on my name too- funny - maybe I'll use it one of these days.

Tilly Greene said...

I'm going to have to try this! The first one was simply fabulous, couldn't make stuff like that up :-)

Angela/SciFiChick said...

And the moral of the story... Always pay your hooker!

My search always returns sad stories about abused dogs needing homes.

Thanks for visiting my T13 #43 13 Bumper Stickers edition.

Later dude - I'm off to the fridge!
