WTF?

This:

Okay, so I belong to this SwagBucks thing because it keeps me supplied with Amazon gift cards (no, really) and it's no trouble for me to use a slightly shitty search engine for unimportant searches to try to earn points.

Supposedly, this search engine is Google-powered.  I don't know if that's true or not, but it offers a similar auto-complete feature.  I was, for the record, trying to figure out how to
do a screen shot on a Mac, in hopes that there's an easier way than how we'd been doing it (there is).  Apparently, "Swaggers" are a strange breed.  So to speak.

For the record, this is what Google pops up:



That is a lot less crazy.

You mean you never wanted to know how to get a dog to mount you? You prude!

My wife is quite addicted to swagbucks...she has earned three $5 cards so far,and went to the extreme of making an account in my name and e-mail address so she can earn matching points for recommending me...

Reminds me, I think I need to go see if I can qualify for any surveys...

Hey, cool! I've always wanted to know how to make a monkey rocker.

(I assume they mean the metal kind, not the chair-with-bendy-bottoms kind.)

I joined this past October & have earned about $60 or so in cards since then. It's worth the little bit of effort, definitely. It's keeping me in books & diapers. Since I have a .edu address, I have Amazon Student, which is a free Prime membership, so I'm not even paying shipping.
