Why are (insert religion here) so....Buddhists Win Google Stereotypes
Buddhists Win Google Stereotypes

When you begin a Google search with the question "Why are so" - you get the above suggestions. The same query regarding Buddhists yields only "happy."

1. Wow, I actually love that. :D
We must be doing something right if all folks can see in us is "happy". :D

5. I don't get that one...
I'm using Firefox on this computer and when I start typing in the search box it auto-completes things for me, but I don't get a drop down box. I had this well before Google did their thing, too.

6. We're happy because we met the Buddha in the road and killed him.

8. So the Buddhist went to the hot dog stand and said
"Make me one with everything."
