Have you ever Googled yourself?

LOL, like others I too am any number of things that aren't accurate.

"White Hen Decapitator" is a great name for a song, BTW.

LOL! Let me get on the phone to tell Mark Mothersbough that...

Or go around with a clipboard, interviewing the yachts: "On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate your owners and how they take care of you? Do they make sure you get regular maintenance?"

That'd actually make for an interesting story idea Particularly with boats owned by celebs. I was just reading about the boat Orville Wright bought while vacationing in Canada for his summer home. Imagine the stories it could tell!

 

[Tom Hendricks]

When I’ve ever Googled myself, most of the returns are for Thomas Hendricks the Vice President. Unless you put in some more details, you would never find me. There are a ton of Thomas Hendricks in the world.

"Oy, the time he tried putting wings on me! The other boats never let me hear the end of it."

I googled myself once and found an insane Trekkie who'd been repeatedly banned from here describing how he'd like to murder me on a fake memorial page for himself where he'd pretended to commit suicide, which was subsequently taken down.

Internet people.

I have an extremely rare first name and a last name that while not uncommon isn't that common either. I find some stuff about me: my election as student government president in college, my interests in Trek and other such stuff. A little about my father, for whom I am named. And another "me" born in 1825 whom I know to not be my grandfather, because his name was different.

Or how about "My owners heard about that Boaty McBoatface on the news, and now they want to call me Yachty McYachtface! No way in HELL am I gonna take that - I'll sink myself first!"

Daily! ....oh...
oops!

 

[Smellincoffee]

I never have out of some dated fear that doing so will identify my computer as belonging to me. But Google knows it's me already, so there's probably no real harm. But, I still won't for the same reason I don't use my full name on Google, just initials...my parents were paranoid when I first got online, and I've absorbed and intensified their paranoia.

 

[Gul Sengosts]

I have a very uncommon first name and a very uncommon last name, so any google search for my full name will easily result in finding me. Some of those search results were unfavourable (i.e. some dumb shit I said as a teenager 15 years ago). Knowing that possible future employers might google me, I had to contact site admins to remove that shit.

Google just translated my entire calendar to ancient Nordic characters. Now my whole year is runed.
