The fRiDaY File - The Google AutoStereotyper

"Why is X so Y?"


If you fill in a value for X, Google will solve for Y:



The official name for this feature is Google AutoComplete but with a little effort you can turn it in to "The Google AutoStereotyper": just type a partial question of the form "why is x so" and Google does the rest.

Or you can use "why are x so"...



Sometimes you can leave off the "so"...



It works with things as well as people and places...



But, not all things...



Just pick a different X...
