Doraemon and Keyword Searches

I have a free statcounter.com account and occasionally check what kind of keywords people use to find or stumble across my blog.

This isn't going to be one of those posts where I list all the weirdest and grossest keywords and phrases. I see these kinds of posts pop up regularly on the some of the more political blogs I like to read. Yes, there are definitely some really sick people on the internet. On the other hand, I have a feeling that the most disgusting keyword searches are often done by young kids. When kids are four years old, they think "what's going to happen if I yell PEEPEE POOPOO CACA?" But when they're 14, they wonder, "what's going to happen if I type *&^%THE %#!& IN THE *$*% AND @#^$ into Google and hit enter?"

I don't use any curse words or full forms of racial slurs on this blog, not because I'm totally against them in any context... I'd just rather not end up getting some unwelcome visitors. Otherwise I enjoy reading a lot of antiracist and feminist blogs where the language goes all over the place.

So my keyword searches aren't very shocking to me. Most of them are fairly predictable. I'm amazed that my pressure cooker collard green recipe still gets a fair amount of hits.

The only one that really freaked me out was a search for "racist Doraemon". It must have pulled up a page that had my one Doraemon post together with a different post about racism.

Doraemon is a wise, helpful and very sensitive cat. A friend to all.

How could he be a racist?!?!

Don't make Doraemon cry.
