Searchin’ every which a-way

Bee with magnifying glass

It’s time, once again, to delve into the mixed grab bag of what people have been tapping into google in order to end up here over the last fortnight.

Just in case you hadn’t realised: people scour the internet for some odd things. Have some Coasters to ease you into the randomness:

Am I search term… or Muppet?

In miss penn, pcp news, screenshots, tv kicks on March 26, 2012 at 3:17 am

Damn it, it’s Monday instead of Sunday again. I got NOTHING done yesterday. I blame the clocks “springing forward”… and the Muppets. Most of my Sunday was spent obsessing over Muppets.

I finally got around to watching The Muppets, which was just… joyful. It was everything good and it had so many of my favourite things!

So, instead of analysing such gems as make your cake look like forest with fairies and little faces are called pixie faces, or answering questions like is jensen ackles a redneck?, this edition of Search Term Sunday is all about the Muppets.

Nick Drake

This Search Term Sunday comes to you from the addled mind underneath my brand spanking new haircut. I now look eerily like Nick Drake, and let’s face it, who wouldn’t want that?

Since the last track on his second album, Bryter Layter, is an instrumental piece simply titled ‘Sunday’ it’s clearly appropriate listening on the last day of the week.

I don’t understand what’s going on with this video, or why it’s claiming to have lyrics, so I suggest you just shut your eyes and listen instead.

 

Lay back, lounge around, and let me insist that things will get better and brighter later. Spring’s a-coming, and there’ll be sunshine and petals and frolicking bunnies all around soon. And if you need a reason to smile before that’s actually upon us, then have a gander at some search terms! Read the rest of this entry »

Let Me Entertain Me

In bookmark, comical, miss penn, pcp news, screenshots, theatrics, tv kicks on January 15, 2012 at 7:44 pm

Sex sells, as Miss Barista has reflected upon in her recent posts, and as further demonstrated by the immense amount of traffic Adam Levine’s body has brought to PCP. Scanning our stats reveals thousands of sexual search terms, each more eye-dirtying than the one before.

I therefore feel I’ve got a pretty good grip on what you all want and how you want it.  But what about what I want? For far too long, Search Term Sundays have been dictated YOUR fickle and occasionally funny fetishes.  Thus, today is all about me, and which search terms correlate with the things that tickle my fancy. Lucky for y’all, I have awesome taste. So there’s going to be lots of pretty.

But for those of you searching for big bang theory boobs,  south carolina sex with a chicken,  big hairy housewelf women asses,  schoolboy upskirt,  panties sniffing soiled spank or spanked or spanking and  far too young nude girls - I’m sorry, but you’re out of luck. At least until next time.

As for the rest of you – you’re welcome!

They say it changes when the Sun(day) goes down

In miss thropist, pcp news, screenshots, tv kicks on January 1, 2012 at 8:20 pm

It’s the first day of 2012, which means it’s entirely respectable (for once) to be nursing a hangover and lounging around in bed all day.

But it is a Sunday, and the sun is quite firmly set beyond the horizon, so it might be time to shake things up a bit and get on with the first Search Term Sunday of the year. (And then to collapse back into an exhausted heap again immediately afterwards.)

New Year’s Revolution

In miss thropist, pcp news, tv kicks on December 31, 2011 at 1:12 pm

Abed from Community

The year is on the verge of ending, which means it’s time for overpriced events, too much cheap bubbly and all the feelings of guilt that over-indulgence while listening to other people’s lofty resolutions bring.

That’s right, ’tis the season for proclamations!

So I’ve been musing on what I want from the coming year, and after thinking long and hard, I think I have an answer. I want my Abed-ity to go entirely unquestioned.

See, we have a little Community community here at PCP, a gaggle of watchers whose identities handily map exactly onto those of the characters from the show. I’m assured that we’re not the only group playing this game, which seems to speak to how awesome the show is, so if you haven’t seen it all yet why not use the remainder of the hiatus to get caught up? You’ll thank me for it. Go on.

Miss Penn is our easily confused Pierce, Ms Elaine E. Ouse our overly nice Shirley, Captain Fancy Pants our excitable Troy, Dr Ella Mentary our shrieking Annie, and our Britta (whom we do have photographic evidence of at least) hasn’t even bothered to write anything for us yet. She’s the worst. We’ve even got our own Chang to terrorise us. Read the rest of this entry »

The end of days

In miss penn, pcp news, tv kicks on December 18, 2011 at 5:23 pm

A week today Miss Thropist and I will be drowning in a vat of spiced liqueurs and roasted meats. As our stomachs will be too distended to approach our computers, this is our last chance in 2011 to mock our strange search termers. Here are the words and phrases that most frequently directed unseemly folks to our little corner of the interwebs in the past 12 months.

dragon (32,247) and dragons (1,612) and dragon pictures (1,529)

I often think that we should give up writing about anything other than dragons. You guys just can’t get enough of them! My favourite dragon moment of 2011 is Games of Thrones’ Daenerys Taergaryen emerging from a pyre with a baby dragon on her shoulder.

Gloomy Sunday

Grey skies

The outside world looks rubbish these days. The skies are grey, everything’s blowing around in the wind, and there’s not even any snow to make up for it. Pah.

This is definitely the time of year for insisting on staying in. You can avoid the long night/short day problem if you ignore it hard enough, and mulled wine can’t get you into quite as much trouble if you never leave the house.

So get comfy and snuggly inside! Draw the curtains against the evils of the external! Make yourself all nice and warm by lighting a fire or applying several glasses of wine!

And, of course, entertain yourself with this latest batch of search terms. Hopefully giggling at them will ensure that you don’t feel the winter gloom at all:

Don’t be Afraid of the Dorks

I understand why someone might be scared to take a peek at the search terms that lead people to Pop Culture Playpen. Quite frankly they can get freaky.

But there’s no need to worry, even though it’s an ostensibly spooky time of year right now. I promise to guide you through this Search Term Sunday safely. There might be shocks and scares along the way, but you’ll come out safely (if somewhat curious about some really weird stuff) on the other side.

Life’s a beach

In miss penn, pcp news, tv kicks on October 16, 2011 at 11:32 pm

Or something that sounds very similar… you may or may not have noticed that PCP has been quieter of late. That’s because Miss Thropist and I have both entered a new phase in our lives. No, we haven’t run off into the sunset and made babies – she’s re-entered the ivory towers to analyse the digital universe while I have recently moved back to London and begun a job in publishing. We’ve let a lot of things slide in the past few weeks, and realised that something had to give until life settles down again.

So, for the foreseeable future, we’ll be posting about as half as much as usual – and we’ll only be mocking our oddbod Googlers every two weeks rather than every week.

I’m sure you’ll understand – and anyway, a little bit of what you fancy does you good. Absence make the heart grow fonder. Never make a pretty woman your wife. And all those cheesy cliches. We love our cliches.

Sunday burning

In miss penn, pcp news on September 19, 2011 at 12:07 am

No, I’m not in a particularly heretic mood. But it is a Sunday and I’m on fire. At least, my back was, and now it resembles a lacy red lizard, a lasting souvenir of my recent trip to Spain. (Part of the reason PCP was taken over by Emmas last weekend.)

You’re all on fire too – but in the good, non-peeling way. I’m liking you weirdo Googlers this week, because you have given me the chance to think about all kinds of pop cultural goodies and stare slack-jawed at sexy scantily-clad men and women, in the name of “blogging”. Keep it coming!

Search term Sun-gay

In ms elaine e. ouse, pcp news on September 11, 2011 at 6:19 pm

As you may be aware Pop Culture Playpen has been taken over by Emmas.

There is a theme to this week’s Search Term Sunday, see if you can guess what it is. The title might give a you clue… Happy GAY Sunday!

No gays were hurt in the making of this article, and this really wasn’t hard to do as most of the terms people searched for involved either something gay or pornographic. (We count naked Jensen Ackles as fitting into both these categories.)

And dragons. No gay dragons as yet though. Disappointing. Upsetting. I demand to pet a gay dragon right NOW.

Summer’s over, time to fall…

In bookmark, miss penn, pcp news, screenshots, tv kicks on September 4, 2011 at 4:45 pm

Where has the summer gone?

I’m finding it hard to accept it is over, but the calendar and slyly shortening days say otherwise. Not to mention that today is one of the rainiest days I have ever seen in the UK! Guess the gods are also mourning the death of a season.

Never mind, autumn is awesome. You get to layer up in cardis, coats, scarves, hats and boots, without the cold completing biting your nose off. And no matter what the weather and season, there will always be Search Term Sunday, that time of the week where we mull over the latest freaky search terms to grace our stats…

I don’t always understand the odd things people search for to end up at this website, but I always enjoy looking through them.

Tis a lazy Sunday afternoon and as is my duty every two weeks (unless I can palm it off onto a Playmate underling), I am wracking up worrying browsing history in an attempt to understand and mock those who discover PCP via dubious and often inappropriate search terms. There’s a particularly sexy/lewd vibe this week.

I would also quite fancy some Afternoon Delight if anyone feels like making me some?

Eye Know

You know what I’ve noticed? I do not write about myself enough on here, and that’s a shame cos I’m fascinating. And awesome.

Case in point: while impersonating a Benetton advert a few of us went to the Taryn Simon exhibition, A Living Man Declared Dead and Other Chapters, at the Tate Modern.

I really enjoyed the exhibition and would recommend it (especially as it’s free, which is my favourite price) but the fact that some of my visually challenged friends- including Miss Penn- had a bit of a problem reading the small print used for the explanatory text panels reminded me just how lucky I am to have good eyesight.

So as a sort of companion piece to my discussion of the noses of pop culture, here’s an ode to how good my eyes are. Read the rest of this entry »

The horror! The horror!

In bookmark, comical, miss penn, pcp news, screenshots on August 7, 2011 at 2:30 am

As part of my Apocalypse Book challenge, I’ve been trying to finish the books I’ve somehow left half-unread. (Or more like 99% unread.) Obviously, there’s sometimes a damned good reason some books are harder to finish than others, and the sneakily slim Heart of Darkness is a doozy. I’ve actually finished it, but felt very disconnected and confused, so need to read it again before I can write about it.

I guess you’re wondering how this links to Search Term Sunday… well, while I don’t “get” Heart of Darkness just yet, its most iconic phrase — “The horror! The horror” sprang to mind as I perused our search term stats. What is wrong with you people?!

The palace of gin and sin

In bookmark, miss penn, pcp news, theatrics on August 6, 2011 at 1:54 pm

Book Slam is a “literary nightclub/cabaret” and, in mine and Time Out’s opinion, one of London’s best nights out. I’ve been going for just over three years now. In that time, I’ve witnessed – and met – dozens of inspiring authors (Zadie Smith! Simon Armitage!), enjoyed magical music (Eska!!) and even learned to appreciate performance poetry. (I’ve always been averse to verse, perhaps irrationally.) I constantly wish it could happen somewhere more accessible (i.e. not Kensington suburbia or Clapham), but am usually willing to make the effort, especially if someone special is going to be there.

So I was very excited when I learned that Bombay Sapphire was teaming up with Book Slam as part of its alluringly named “Imagination Series”. There would be gin, my favourite! Bombay Sapphire is my favourite kind of gin! It would be in Shoreditch! My favourite area! With my favourite League of Gentleman, Jeremy Dyson, the fabulous Eska, as well as the reliably amusing Joe Dunthorne. (His books are so funny that I’m coming around to forgiving him for saying I had a small penis. Long story.) And freeee! Also my favourite! Me and Miss Thropist applied for tickets sharpish. August 4 coincided with our dear friend’s birthday, so we took her (and Mister Meaner, for some reason).

I’m Sunday, I’ll be killing you here in a minute or so

In art attack, comical, fasc-ion, good vibrations, miss thropist, pcp news, screenshots, tv kicks on July 31, 2011 at 1:31 pm

Well alright, that titular Buffy quote was from a vampire called Sunday (pictured above) and not- at least as far as I know- an anthropomorphic version of the last day of the week. But when you think about it, it’s kind of true. Sundays practically do kill you sometimes.

You’re liable to be horribly hungover and terribly tired from your weekend activities- whether they’ve been wholesome or debauched. Or, if you- like quite a few of the PCP crew- spent your Saturday night entertaining a baby while necking booze, a bit of both.

So you’re all tuckered out- and you don’t even get to really relax because another week is just around the corner demanding your attention and energy. Sundays are hard.

However they’re also they day of search term sifting- I’ll be perusing the things people have googled to end up on PCP. And possibly flailing around in confusion.

Greatest Hits

In miss penn, pcp news, screenshots, tv kicks on July 25, 2011 at 10:45 pm

Welcome to another Search Term Su… Monday! I’d tell you the real reason(s) behind this latest bout of lateness, but you would be moved or bored to tears. So let’s just say the dog ate my search terms.

Last week Miss Thropist reverted to type and tried to reclaim the smut, after my attempt at giving PCP a little light and love. While I have had to concede a dirty defeat, I still feel like trying something new. This week I’d like you to cock an eyebrow at our greatest hits of the past seven days – the top ten search terms that have directed people to our site.

The biggest draw to our humble online abode. People have a surprisingly innocent searching attitude to them, which is heartening!

Sweets for my sweet

In miss penn, pcp news on July 11, 2011 at 3:47 am

Confession time. It’s the wee hours of Monday morning, I have an early start and I am already waay behind with everything, least of all Search Term Sunday!

Mostly because of good things though. Half of my immediate family arrived from far and away on Saturday, which meant lots of hugging and spoiling with non-far-and-away cuisine. (My little sister is marveling over cheese that doesn’t taste like yak.) This past week has been a game of catch up, as I’ve recently returned from the US of A, where I watched my oldest friend get married and then spent a week getting to see New York through the eyes of a little girl. Much of today has been consumed by hanging with aforementioned family members and doing battle with Facebook so all the wedding guests can enjoy the memories before the glow wears off.

So I’ve decided to make this STS short and sweet, emphasis on the sweet. I was wondering how to best prune this week’s choice smut, and then realised cutting out the smut would be the fastest way to streamline. As well as maintain my wholesome marriage-and-baby-carriages outlook for a little bit longer, with the added bonus of demonstrating that people sometimes have totally innocent Google-routes to PCP. I hope you won’t be too disappointed!

It’s time for another Search Term Sunday, and this week I’ve wrested back control from Ms Elaine E. Ouse who likes to tell you lies about my birthday.

(Or maybe she’s just not available to bully into doing it for me. Whatever.)

Anyway, it’s certainly time to investigate the strangeness of the search terms which led people to the site this week:

Then again, it’s not a particularly manic Monday, being yet another Bank Holiday and all. But yesterday was rather hectic, as I went to the Ffourth Fforde Fiesta to interview the ffantastic Jasper Fforde and observe all manner of absurd activities. So that’s my excuse for being late with this Search Term Sunday – the very special time of the week where we highlight the humorous and often inappropriate ways people stumble upon PCP. And I do wish it was Sunday, because then I’d be at the Fiesta all over again!

A Sunday kind of love

In bookmark, fan death, miss penn, pcp news, screenshots, tv kicks on May 1, 2011 at 11:57 pm

Passion seems to be in the air. At least for William and Kate, and for those stumbling upon our humble blog via dubious search terms, looking for everything from wedding dresses and small screen studs to twincest and pornography of children’s cartoons.

Perhaps it’s Royal Wedding Fever.  Maybe it’s the titillating displays of sunburned flesh and unpedicured toes that herald the British summer.

While I may not be caught up in all this twitterpation, royal or otherwise, I do have a way of showing my own special kind of Sunday love for you, dear readers. It might be more akin to pulling your hair in the playground than serving up a candlelit dinner… but trust me, it’s all meant affectionately.

Happy Easter Sunday y’all!

I must admit that Easter celebrations have never really made all that sense to me, but if you’re into pretending that rabbits lay eggs and enjoy hunting for melted chocolates in apparently unlikely places then I hope you have an enjoyable time doing so.

The stuff that I’ve been searching for- silly search terms- are far easier to find. It’s much like looking for hay in a haystack, as soon as you take a look at the searches people have performed in order to bring them to this site you’re sucked into a wildly weird world.

We really are getting on for summer, the sun is genuinely shining and the weather is sweet.

It’s nice to be able to enjoy the weekend out on the grass, rather than being holed up inside piling on the layers just to feel like you’re not turning into a person-shaped icicle.

I hope that you’ve all been having hot fun in the sun, but when you eventually make your way back inside (the evenings aren’t yet quite as warm as I’d like them to be, let me tell you) there’ll still be a Search Term Sunday for your perusal each week.

Join us as we try to puzzle out what exactly it is that people are looking for when they end up here- and whether the weirdest googling can be blamed on sunstroke or daytime drinking.

As far as I’m concerned, Sundays are usually for relaxation and recovery. It’s also a good day to check in with your friends- preferably in person with piles of greasy food and lots of liquid.

Sundays are the perfect day for everyone to share their stories of debauchery from the latest week (or, more likely, the weekend) and to swear that they’re never making the same mistakes again.

But if they didn’t, then we’d have nothing to talk about the next Sunday. So mostly the quitters quit quitting, and life goes on with its circular motions.

Since it’s Sunday, it’s time to go through the sinful and strange search terms of the week.

I’d ask everyone to promise to bookmark some stuff instead of abusing google in this fashion, but where would the fun be next weekend if that happened?

The Sunday Express

In bookmark, miss penn, pcp news, screenshots, tv kicks on March 20, 2011 at 10:25 pm

What does Sunday mean to you? For me, in an ideal world, it’s lie-ins, pajamas, brunch, fat newspapers, roasts and movie marathons.

And every other Sunday, it’s also trawling the Internet to figure out how to best tease and satisfy those who stumble upon PCP via the strangest search terms… so come on, read (and see) all about it!

evil things

There is a lot of evil in the world. Especially if you live in Sunnydale. The Gentlemen in landmark Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode  ”Hush” were particularly sinister.


tyra banks’ underarms

I like the concession to grammar, but shake my head at the ongoing armpit fetishism. Not judging, just getting bored… how bout knees? Anyone? Read the rest of this entry »

Dry your eyes, Sunday girl

In miss thropist, pcp news on March 13, 2011 at 7:44 pm

Why am I always hungover when it’s my turn to do the Search Term Sunday? Life is wildly unfair. Despite that, or perhaps because of it, it’s time again to air people’s dirty google laundry in public.

The search terms that lead people to Pop Culture Playpen are often wacky, wonderful, wild- and perplexing. But however you got here, sit back and enjoy us discussing this week’s batch.

perfect jawlines

Comes complete with ridiculous cheekbones:

how to distract yourself from porn

Well you could let Ms Elaine E. Ouse dictate your Lent- she suggests giving up misogyny, and part of that is a pledge to set aside Disney porn. Or you could do like Miss Penn and read a load of books, that’s pretty distract-y.

Under the magnifying glass

In miss penn, pcp news on March 6, 2011 at 11:55 pm

YAWN. It’s been a busy few days, what with World Book Day, Benedict Cumberbatch stalking and all (it’ll all make sense eventually, stay tuned).

So I’m a little late – but better than never – with our weekly examination/enabling of the ways people find PCP. Not that we’re not totally grateful! Do come back, all of you. One day we might actually have what you’re searching for.

dark magician girl porn

Apparently Dark Magician is a sexy monster from the Japanese manga Yu-Gi-Oh…

Scary…

I’ve just returned from a weekend in Brighton and should be shattered, but Ms Elaine E. Ouse’s girlfriend has kept me alive by pumping out pop punk and hip hop on the drive back, so I’m hyper enough for another Search Term Sunday!

It’s time to nose around and look at what search terms have led people to Pop Culture Playpen this week… And then to mock them.

Welcome to the weirdness

In miss penn, pcp news on February 20, 2011 at 11:39 pm

When we first decided to do Search Term Sunday, it was because we just had to share with the world the weird and wonderful ways people were stumbling upon our humble blog – i.e. the strange search terms that somehow led to PCP.

But the search terms are becoming exponentially more bizarre. We are hurtling into a vortex of weird at a rapidly increasing velocity. Our minds will continue to be opened in new and depraved ways, as Internet rule #34 gets stretched to its outer limits and we gain further chilling insight into those that Google.

There’s only one thing to do: Jump in headfirst!

Super(natural) Sunday

In miss thropist, pcp news on February 13, 2011 at 11:20 pm

It’s time for another Search Term Sunday- where we explore the strange things that people have googled to end up  being directed to our site. This week seems especially Supernatural heavy, even for us, maybe because we recently wrote about Sam vs. Dean.

In general if we’re feeling benevolent we might actually try to answer the queries, but given that Sundays are often our hangovers of doom day we’re more likely to mock. And then promptly fall asleep.

So let’s give it a whirl:

Easy like a Sunday evening

In miss penn, pcp news, screenshots, tv kicks on February 6, 2011 at 10:19 pm

Sure, according to Lionel Richie, it’s Sunday mornings that are easy. But it’s been awhile since I saw one of those, unless you count super late Saturday nights. Not that I’d have it any other way. Yaaawn.

Today we’ve got the perfect visual accompaniments to Sunday brunch, whatever time you manage to have it, from rapey killer robots to accidental Disney porn (as opposed to the deliberate porn we’re usually asked for). Without further ado, let’s get on with yet another Search Term Sunday!

Ah, you must mean The Rescuers. Madame Medusa had TWO pet alligators, Brutus and Nero.

Wish it were Sunday, cos that’s my funday

In miss thropist, pcp news on January 30, 2011 at 5:56 pm

I’ve been having a slightly manic weekend visiting friends who’ve had to pack up and get out- some more successfully than others- in a very short space of time. Not that the talk of leaving through the window or rage induced bike-table battles haven’t been entertaining, but in a way I’m quite glad that the world has somehow reached Sunday, and that things seem to have calmed down. At least for a minute.

Which means that, all things staying sedate anyway, it’s now time for another Search Term Sunday- where we paw through people’s dirty google laundry. If you ended up on this site by searching for an odd combination of words then you’re in good company, a lot of other people did too!

majorvein frizzy

There does appear to be someone with the Photobucket username majorvein with a picture of frizzy hair, but if you were searching for frizzy vena cava then I don’t think we can help you. Mostly cos that’s super gross.

surreal disney image

What’s more surreal than Dali-esque Disney? At this point I’m pretty much bowled over by anything Disney that doesn’t involve porn anyway.

As you wish

In miss penn, pcp news, screenshots, tv kicks on January 23, 2011 at 2:22 pm

Maybe it’s the fact that we’re coming to the end of winter, with longer days and weather occasionally warm enough to keep the blood circulating in my fingers… maybe it’s the imminence of the proper end of the TV-land hiatus. Whatever it is,  I’m feeling rather generous. The search terms are as strange as ever, but this week I’d like to do my very best to make everyone’s wishes come true. Here goes.

chinese national palace museum paintings

This is Night Revels of Han Xizai by Gu Hongzhong, a 10th century work of art survived by the 12th century remake that is currently on display in the Chinese National Museum.

erotic lesbian story grabbing ass

Couldn’t find the story, but hopefully this will provide the requisite inspiration.

bunnies dressed like men

Top hat and tails ahoy. Although I personally prefer men dressed like bunnies… especially when they’re Chandler Bing.

puppyish teens torrent

I hear puppy, my mind immediately goes to to Jared Padalecki. Here he is as a teen. I’ll leave it to you to torrent whatever form of Padapuppy entertainment floats your boat.

misfits nathan naked

Not quite naked, but I like to leave something to the imagination. (Unlike the man himself.) Makes a nice change from the obsession people have with his fashion!


hardworking employer cartoons

It is very hard work giving someone a good telling off.


princess journey beyond dreams

Hmmm, I suppose the prince kissing Sleeping Beauty back to waking life is like a journey beyond dreams…


anna friel fly with me

I guess this is in reference to Anna Friel’s recent appearance on aiport mockumentary Come Fly with Me. What’s funny though, is when you type this phrase into Google, the first thing that comes up is a forum post speculating on whether she’s really bald. I don’t think so…

jensen ackles riding

Yay, time for some Cowboy Jensen!

sex hot kiss lesbian

In honour of awards season, Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis getting hot and heavy in Black Swan.

how-to-draw-cinderella,-princess-aurora-step-5

DragoArt.com offers simple tutorials for just about every Disney Princess there is.

flowers in the attic movie remake

I wish.  Apparently there’s been talks of a remake… but I won’t hold my breath.


scooby-doo porn

Almost, right?

sexy lesbian vampire chicks kissing

From Lesbian Vampire Killers, a film that I probably should check out sometime, based on the title alone.

veronika and lisa in physical culture naked

Sorry. I’ve got nothing.

1994 barbie bed fun

When isn’t a Barbie bed fun?

my little pony triple threat

They can inflict serious damage with those brushes…

sister-in-law erotic lesbian drama

I’m sorry, the best I can think of is A Streetcar Named Desire. A sister-in-law erotic drama minus the lesbianism but plus the Marlon Brando. Fair trade?

julie gonzalo without makeup

Another tough one, but at least this picture manages to fulfill julie gonzalo eye color and julie gonzalo breasts.

armpit pussy

There you go.

kristin kreuk and her lesbian kiss

More lady-loving-lip-locking action.

ted mosby how i met your mother falling

Falling in love or actual falling? Miss Thropist would no doubt love to see the latter. Couldn’t find any screenshots, but here he is in the hospital… so you can pretend that it was just after a fall.

bad bits in moulin rouge

Check out Miss Thropist’s Fan Death of said movie to know which bits of Moulin Rouge you ought to avoid. Which is all of it.

comical cowboys

Oh go on then…

The day we exhaust Google’s supply of Cowboy Jensens will be a very sad one indeed. We may need to kidnap him… anyone mind lending us a ranch and a pony?

drawings of henry winkler from happy days

Sunday, Monday… Happy Days!

And who knew that Happy Days was made into a cartoon, which sounds like a mash-up between the source material, Grease, The Jetsons, Scooby Doo and Quantum Leap. According to Frederator Blogs:

While the cartoon was based on the live action show, the cartoon added a dog, Mr. Cool (voiced by Frank Welker), and a girl from the future, Cupcake (voiced by DiDi Conn) to the cast. The characters travel through history in a time machine, trying, as narrator Wolfman Jack put it, “…to get back to 1957 Milwaukee.”

vanessa williams and eric mabius rpf

Again, no stories, but here’s some visual inspiration.

zombie footballers

You’re in luck, because it appears that zombie footballer novel Play Dead is heading to a screen near you soon. And by soon, I mean at least a year.

where jared leto dog

I dunno, in Jared Leto kennel?

Although if this is referring to Judas, the only dog I could confirm Jared has owned, he’s been in the big kennel in the sky since May 2007, hopefully with all the treats, self-throwing balls, postmen’s feet and open car windows as he could ever desire.

polly pocket history

According to The Toy Review:

Polly Pocket was first created by in 1983 by Chris Wiggs. The original design was made for his daughter and Chris used a powder compact to make a small house for the little doll. Polly Pocket arrived in stores in 1989 when Bluebird Toys licensed the product. A distribution arrangement was held between Bluebird Toys and Mattel in the early 1990s. Bluebird Toys experienced several take-over attempts when production began to slow and in 1998, Mattel finally purchased them. Polly Pocket was redesigned in 1999 by Mattel and a whole new series of collectible products were created. Polly became slightly larger and more life-like than the original Polly designed by Chris. The name Polly Pocket actually comes from the original Polly Pocket toys that fit in pocket size cases. Mattel also introduced Fashion Polly later in 1999.

On the Sunday morning sidewalk, wishing Lord that I was stoned

In miss thropist, pcp news on January 16, 2011 at 6:39 pm

It’s another Sunday morning- well all right it’s well after midday and into the evening. but it feels like morning when you’ve been asleep for more than fifteen hours- which makes it time for another Search Term Sunday.  And the stuff that y’all have been googling makes it seem like you might have been higher than a kite.

Keep it coming, we love every single weird and wonderful hit. (Especially the Disney Wankers.)

largest computer screen

Well unless you have the largest one how the hell are you going to be able to see it in full on your screen? Headfuck.

i blame coco

Me too, that Chanel bitch is really making me want a cigarette.

young queen silvia

…of Sweden? Who I’m pretty sure we’ve never written about? Oh, what the hell, here you go:

jeffster hi res

Ok, that’s it, whoever it is who’s been googling high-resolution images of the ugliest uglies from Chuck needs to pack up their stuff and GTFO. I find the people searching for disney: ariel and jasmine kissing while naked in a hottub or disney princesses piss porn way less disturbing.

armpit sweaty

Armpit porn really does seem to be the new thing. Knock yourself out:

kleenex balsam nose screenshots

Or maybe I spoke too soon, nose-blowing could be the good stuff:

beau vampire

Finally, a kink we can all understand.

robert sheehan sword

Apparently not a euphemism. Who knew?

beautiful-cartoons-photo-frames-for-kids

And I thought I liked hyphens too much.

jensen ackles cowboy

As thanks for making it easy to stick to our aim of getting a picture of Cowboy Jensen in every Search Term Sunday have some bonus Cowboy Jared. Go on, you deserve it:

ction fitish bride

What? Is that a mis-typing of “action fetish” or something?

cobie smulders thong

While Miss Penn does have a penchant for filching celeb’s clothes, she hasn’t yet got around to pinching any of Cobie’s underthings. The How I Met Your Mother actress strikes me as more of a granny panties girl if I’m honest. Thoughts?

sisters of the incarnate word

I don’t think we have any of that here.

white cable sweater mary steenburgen wore in the proposal

This one?

Don’t worry, I’m sure Miss Penn’s already made off with it.

unknown handsome guy with six pack

You know it’s a lot easier to search for the known than the unknown, but here have an anonymous chest:

shane mccutcheon keep simple relationships, sex without emotional attachments, and so will not hurt

A life lesson for us all.

learn to except your ugly for men

Whether that’s supposed to be “except”, “expect” or possibly “accept”, what I really want to pretty up is that sentence.

lesbiancreeks

Sounds dirty.

jack can’t coup dawson’s creek fan fiction

First of all, leading a coup is difficult stuff ok, stop with the judging. And second, I watched quite a bit of season three of Dawson’s Creek this week (although I don’t think I wrote about it here) and Jack can do anything with his “fug” mantra.

thefilmwall.com offsong

Whut?

gay play pen.com

Jeez, I have had enough of the mocking, just cos I love musicals! Sniff.

hourses paints

If a horse and a house had a baby and painted it, I like to think it would look a little something like this:

why is the show skins called skins

Well I’ve never seen it but I’m going with either rizla or porn. Or rizla porn, I’m sure there’s some of that on the internet, right?

robert sheehan livejournal

Sadly doesn’t seem to be a real thing, but don’t you wish his character on Misfits, Nathan, had a blog?

It’s getting hot in here

In miss penn, pcp news on January 9, 2011 at 7:05 pm

Baby, it’s cold outside, but here at PCP, at least when it comes to search terms, it’s getting pretty steamy. This week’s search terms are a feast of freaky fun. From artic frolics to 19th century fitties, all kinds of kink and fetishism are reigning supreme. 2011 is shaping up to be a very good year indeed.

disney standup princess

Disney princesses are a lot of things – crossdressing warriors, bipedal mermaids, scantily clad daredevils, shoe-losing slavegirls – but certainly not standup comediennes (although Mulan comes the closest). Try a sidekick, that’s where the funny is. Or a villain. Jafar is the campest vizier ever to grace “Arabia”.

cody cummings 3 way ass play

After a spot of Googling,  I have learned that Cody Cummings (below) is a big Internet gay porn star that doesn’t serve as a bottom, but may do eventually. I’m sure everyone’s patience will be rewarded eventually.

cute 5 to 10 years children’s group photo

Man I have SO many of these in my personal photo albums. Google is all-seeing.

mr burger sea breeze karachi

Apparently the most popular local food chain in Karachi…?

a day in the life of jared and jensen

This would be the best creative writing assignment ever! Here’s a working synopsis:

Jared wakes up, tosses the covers aside, and runs to the window with puppyish glee, greeting the sunny day with a smile just as bright. He stretches, revealing perfect abs. Jensen is curled up in their bed, snoring like the Metallicar’s carburettor.  Jared strides into kitchen and makes Jensen banana pancakes drizzled with maple syrup and topped with whipped cream. He tiptoes into the bedroom, holds the warm plate under Jensen’s nose. Jensen stirs slightly, but buries his face into the pillow. Jared licks Jensen’s cheek…

I should stop now. It’s impossible to write about J2 without descending into smut.

chinesse lesbian kiss

Here’s half of one:

space jailbait

I’m thinking Judy Jetson or River Tam.

“snow white” “wedding” “wicked queen” “fanfic”

Snow White/Wicked Queen fic. Now that’s something I’d like to read…

disney princesses armpits

What is with the armpit fetish plaguing our search terms? Is it the new knee or something? Anyway, this was the best I could do:

ian hislop rpf

I can’t even begin to imagine what real person fiction about the Have I Got News for You regular would be like. Miss Thropist mightbe able to though.

supernatural fanfiction sam winchester lip sewn shut art

Maybe Sam should just shut up sometimes. But this is taking it to extremes.

smoking cigarettes sexily

Because we do that all the time.

You should also check out the way we swig Prosecco and snarf pizza. We’re bringing sexy back to consumption.

goldilocks sexy doll

Foursome anyone?

jared leto likes blondes

Well, he did date Cameron Diaz. (Maybe Scarlett Johansson and Ashley Olsen too). And he certainly seems to enjoy being a blonde.

fit girls in 19th century french paintings

Gosh, some people have classy perving tendencies. I approve.

abstract mermaid 1024

Um… does this piece by Lisa Wibroe come close?

cowboys gay erotica tales

Now this is a genre of fiction made for Jensen. Hey there, little lady…

3d lesbian fairys

I always did think Tink was a little too hot and bothered about Wendy.

horrible, hilarious porn arctic

This sounds like the ideal starting point for the Dr. Horrible sequel. Hurry up Whedon.

Another year over, and a new one just begun

In miss thropist, pcp news on January 2, 2011 at 3:02 pm

I’ve pretty much lost my concept of days over the festive period but I’m reliably informed that it’s been a week since we last did this. I’m also told that it’s 2011 now, a fact easy to miss amongst all the champagne and recriminations.

So let’s raise a glass to another year of Search Term Sundays- may we never forget to post on the right day!

hot and sweaty cowboys

Given that we’ll take any opportunity to post pics like this I can kinda see why that would bring you here:

sexy neighbor in hot tub

There are probably easier ways to perv on your neighbours than googling. Just sayin’.

harald kloser just to relax myth

As in his claim that he “only smokes to relax” is all a lie?

heroines armpit

Miss Penn has a penchant for photographing my armpits, while Michelle Rodriguez apparently enjoys licking her own:

college wrestling team torsos

There might be torsos aplenty mentioned here, but I doubt you’ll find much about anything as energetic as wrestling. Although now that Lauren has joined the Glee team I guess we might want to talk about her past as a member of the William McKinley High wrestling team…

etchings of a looking glass

We’re literally luring people back to our web-place with the “want to come up and see my etchings?” line. Score.

all the disney princesses birthday party invitation – digital file- princess snow white, cinderella, aurora sleeping beauty, ariel little mermaid, belle beauty and beast, jasmine, pocahontas, mulan, tiana princess and the frog

Points for effort at least.

child abuse still 54 years later and my sons gloss prodigy tapestrey the real and quick sound trapped behind false front beinging raped emd walked like dogs

I’m not sure what’s most disturbing here- the search term, the spelling or the fact that it would lead you here.

Supersized Sunday

In miss penn, miss thropist, pcp news on December 26, 2010 at 7:06 pm

Christmas is a time of excess. You spend too much, eat too much, drink too much. And you treat your loved ones to bumper editions of things, like annuals and chocolate selections. Or really really small versions of things, like perfume… but because our love for y’all is so huge (and we’ve been a little slack of late), you’re getting a supersized version of Search Term Sunday for Boxing Day, as we each examine the leftovers of the past two weeks, and attempt to reheat them up as fresh humour. Enjoy!

Miss Penn

free neked models

None of those. Sorry. (We’re working on it though.)

holly is fit as fuck pop culture playpen

Well, I guess she is, if you’re into big boobed blondes with a penchant for dress-up and dirty old men:

are carly pope cobie smulders twin sisters

I can understand why you’d think that:

But no, they aren’t. They should totally be cast as sisters – along with fellow Canuck Caroline Dhavernas.

over 50 male below the torsos

So OVER 50 and BELOW the torso? I can’t quite get my head around that. Which is probably a good thing.

barbie porn

A refreshing change from Disney porn!

mother helps here child peeing

Oook.

buffay the vampire layer

Ha, I know this is a Friends reference, but it gets me every time.

workers kissing office lesbians

Miss Day would approve.

troll doll melted hair

Miss Day would NOT approve. And all Google can do is provide non-melted troll doll hair. Maybe next year, if you behave yourself.

absurd minds

Well, Miss Thropist and Captain Pants certainly have ones. Possibly twos or threes.

sweater owned by ashton kutcher given to me personally

How did you find out about that? That’s in my safe, between the thong Beyonce gave to me personally and the mobile phone I pickpocketed from Paris Hilton.

alicia witt as a stripper

Well, she played one in Two and a Half Men – episode 5, season 6. Apparently the lack of Charlie Harper can cause a girl to turn to lapdancing. I’m not a fan of the show, but I did catch a bit of this rather dull episode… poor Alicia hasn’t had a gig worthy of her talents since Cybill. On the upside, she seems to have largely halted the ageing process.

how to dress like nathan from misfits

We’ve been getting a lot of search terms pertaining to Nathan’s fashion sense… which I find odd, as it seems to consist solely of orange jumpsuits, Christmas jumpers and underpants. But what do I know about style?

Miss Thropist

Christmas is a time of greed: you guzzle turkey, glug wine and stuff yourself on figgy pudding. True to the spirit of the season Miss Penn has greedily gobbled up the crème de la crème of the search terms before me.

Luckily the internet seems to have an almost endless supply of Christmas cracker-esque funnies:

kristen stewart six pack

Six packs often turn up in the search terms, especially Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner’s, probably thanks to Miss Penn’s torso-heavy review of New Moon. I guess someone decided to plump for equal Twilight perving opportunities. Sadly Google image doesn’t really supply the goods.

the princess and the frog ray fanfictions

I don’t want to be judgey, but isn’t Ray a firefly?

old walt disney lady villain with pet alligators

More Disney porn? Sheesh.

police line do not cross Disney

The official police policy no doubt.

adolescent disobeying their ariel mulan and ratatouille

As a teenager I may have disobeyed my parents, teachers and better judgment- but I can’t say I ever refused to listen to my mermaid, crossdressing Chinese warrior or wannabe gourmet rat.

marriage tribulations new report finds worrying trends

Consuming pop culture leads to divorce. True story.

And a couple I can’t believe we missed, which are both funnier than we could ever hope to be about them:

a older bride at forty years will marry with twenty years youmg man wedding

a large wellmade smooth-faced man of fifty with stylish cast but every mark of capacity and kindness

And that’s it for Search Term Sunday… at least until 2011!

Leathery lesbians and animated heroin

In miss penn, pcp news on December 12, 2010 at 8:22 pm

I’m frankly a little disappointed by the search terms on offer this week… but that may be because I have just discovered the hilarity of Freaks and Geeks, the kind of show I can’t believe I haven’t watched already. But more on that later… for now, it’s that time of the week when we taunt those unfortunate enough to discover our corner of the internet through suspect means.

lesibians leather kissing youtube

What is a lesibian? A lesbian frog? Typo aside, I’m afraid we’re all out of videos of leather-clad lesbians getting it on, but if you send Miss Day some Blythe dolls, she may come up with the goods. Maybe send her a couple of leather jackets too.

3d incest

I am rather partial to Virginia Andrews and wouldn’t say no to one of those shiny new 3D TVs… but  after googling this search term and having the foolishness to click on the top links…!! Not even Flowers in the Attic can make it better. For your own sake, don’t do what I did.

what did eliza dushku hair look like in 2007

Like this:

lesbians always faithful

Is that a question? If so, then, yes, yes they are. Because women rock at everything. ESPECIALLY fidelity. So if you’re considering becoming a lesbian, I’d say go ahead. Let us know and we’ll send you a toaster.

hard work sexy model

I assume this person wants an image of a model hard at work. Voila:

Ok, Jensen Ackles doesn’t look so hard at work right now, but I can just tell he’s about to do some yoking or corralling, or whatever it is pony-riding cowboys do on long, hot summer days…

sexfucks

We have NEVER written this on PCP EVER! Apart from just now.

images of animax hero heroin

If you want junkie cartoon characters, I recommend Alice in Wonderland and The Yellow Submarine.

twilight princess vs ocarina of time

This isn’t funny at all, but more like WHAT ARE YOU DOING INSIDE MY MIND. I love The Legend of Zelda, although I’ve had to give up playing video games as it involves both hands (and thus prevents me from multitasking). I just checked and we’ve never written anything about Zelda. I’m seriously beginning to think Google has somehow hooked itself into my brain. Last week it knew about me and Miss Thropist discussing Cirque du Soleil and the sexy man washing himself at the Cirque du Soleil-esque cabaret we attended.

Just another manic Sunday

In miss thropist, pcp news on December 6, 2010 at 12:16 am

I’m sneaking in under the wire to announce that once again it’s time to alternately laugh out loud, clap with glee and turn away in horror over the search terms that bring people to our site.

Of course it’s gratifying to see people stumble upon us when we seem to be able to fulfil their curious quest for information (and mad props to those people who were looking for Through the Glass Ceiling and the Leeds Animation Workshop; in my personal life cannon someone else has just rediscovered this forgotten treasure).

Sometimes the seemingly hilarious turn out to be sadly banal. We’ve become a bit immune to all the Disney porn searching which directs people to us, we barely notice it any more. However me and Miss Penn were happily giggling over the search term “walt disney assepoester poster“, it seemed like a redundant and badly spelt over use of the word poster to start with. But a little googling threw up that Asspoester is actually the Dutch for Cinderella. I don’t really know why that would bring someone to Pop Culture Playpen, but the Disney mention without the accompanying porn made a nice change.

We also got a nice string of Hebrew: “תחפושת הנסיכה והצפרדע“. I have no idea what that means, I can bless your bread and wine if needed- and that’s about it, but google translate leads me to believe that it’s got something to do with the story of the princess and the frog. However if we stick to investigating the English search terms it’s easier to find things that are reliably funny:

have the book dead poets society an happy ending?

I don’t know, maybe you should check out the film instead of the shitty tie-in novel.

rpf zooey deschanel

RPF standing for real person fiction in this case I assume and not, say, The Rehabilitation Project Force of the Church of Scientology. Sadly I don’t think we have any of that here, but a quick search found me some Zooey Deschanel/Jared Padalecki fic on livejournal. UNF.

What confuses me the most about this search term is that there’s only one name. Who searches for gen fic? Pfft, everyone knows that the internet is for porn.

jared leto wikipedia

I can understand being too lazy to bookmark Wikipedia. I can understand being too lazy to type the url into the address bar, especially with Chrome. I can’t, however, understand ostensibly searching for the Wikipedia page for Jared Leto (it’s here by the way, the first hit for the search of course, in case anyone else is having problems finding it) and instead clicking through pages and pages of search results. Are they having problems trusting Wikipedia since the new ads rolled out? Guess that means we’re better than an encyclopaedia, I always suspected it if I’m honest.

funny sayings like egg splattered on the ground and call it a horror movie

I’m completely intrigued by this one, I just want to deconstruct it to death. It feels like it’s sorely lacking some sets of quotation marks, but I’m not entirely sure where they ought to go. Is “call it a horror movie” an example of a funny saying or is it part of the whole? And above all, what on earth does it mean?!

globalization by pointing out the parallels between the united states in the late 1800′s and modern day technological advances and trends in the world as a whole movie follows fish through the global economy

…Sometimes there are just no words. (But there are superfluous apostrophes.)

I kind of hope that whoever was looking for it finds their fishy film eventually though.


Is it us you’re looking for?

For some time now I’ve been bemused by the search terms that people have used en route to PCP .

On one hand it’s a useful way of seeing what drives people to our site and indicator of trend fluctuations, on the other it’s an often bizarre insight into people’s minds.

(Don’t get me wrong, if someone could see the stuff I type into Google, I’d probably be committed to the Looney Tunes bin).

I don’t think we’ve written a disproportionate amount about Disney*, but “disney princess” is by far the most frequently used search term, along with similar permutations. People love their Disney princesses. So much so that “disney porn” is another familar pairing of words on our dashboard. Most times, I admire their patience and persistence with finding whatever their Holy Grail, as we’re rarely on even the 10th page of the results… and I’m sure we hardly ever satisfy their info-craving either!

But why keep all this amusement and wondering to ourselves? Every Sunday, we’ll be sharing the funniest/most unusual search terms of the week.

romantic naughty elf

I guess it is almost that time of year. This gives me unpleasant memories of a elf costume I was made for the Christmas fete when I was 7… and then tried to stuff myself into again as a teenager. Neither naughty or romantic – just disturbing.

in the book taken by francine prose why did tom feel ashamed when he ignored silas outside dr. willners office

We’re actually on page 1 for this very specific quest, and as far as I can tell, Francine Prose hasn’t written a novel called Taken. However, the rather prolific and aptly monikered Ms. Prose does have a book on Anne Frank I wouldn’t mind flicking through.

cinderella sex slave cartoon

Kinky! I’d like to direct this person to Alan Moore and Melinda Gebbe’s gorgeously rendered Lost Girls graphic novel trilogy. There isn’t a sex slave Cinderella, but there is some erotic Disney-esque action. As well as better insight into what women find sexy.

jensen wonky eye

This isn’t so much amusing, as blasphemy. Jensen Ackles is perfect in every way, especially when it comes to his pretty, pretty eyes. Of course, they could mean Jensen from Tru Calling, and I’d be willing to let that one slide.

she became lesbian actress

We probably have Miss Day’s debut post to thank for this one. Are they curious about what turns people into lesbians? My theory: rainbow bubble bath.

*Buffy and Supernatural on the other hand…

We’re back… with company!

Sooo… Miss Thropist and I took an unplanned, extended blog summer holiday… we were busy binging on shampoo, hosting tea parties for tots, searching for elephants and speaking halting English to bemused Germans… and just being lazy! Yet the hits to this site keep on coming* and babbling about pop culture remains one of our favourite things to do, so we’ve decided to start things up again, and with a little more commitment… and a new Pop Culture Playmate!

Meet Miss (Penny) Day! She loves 80s, androgyny, victoriana, vampires and all things foodie, an eclectic mix that leads to lots of random writings and peculiar fan fictions. She’s also partial to TV lesbians, so check out her first post, coming up next.

I hope you’ll enjoy our return, and if you’re interested in becoming a contributor, drop us a line.

*Admittedly, many of these appear to be from people searching for Disney porn, but hey, we’re not judging…

Who are we?

Check out our About section to find out who we are. Yea, we’re that lazy.

Although Pop Culture Playpen officially opens today, we’re posting a backlog of our previous pop culture-y pieces, including blog posts, articles and essays.
