A Spot In History

Playing With Fire, a production of Gastrologica Media has now assumed its role in history. We are a Google Wack. Google Wacks are a very rare and precious commodity if you find one. It is the act of throwing two words into the Google search box without quotes, and returning one -and only one- result.

Now, of course, due to the wild expansion of Google, it's not a straightforward as it might sound. A long time ago the rules were as I stated above, but there are a few caveats nowadays. First, because of the proliferation of wordlists and spam sites, it is nearly impossible to get a bona fide Google Wack. Secondly, you have to perform the search with a few filter parameters to only look at certain elements.

As such, if you search using Google Advanced search using this string:

allintext: fustigated caramelized -txt -filetype:d

It would result in only four responses. Three are wordlists, and there we are at the top: Gastrologica.

Ok, so it's not exactly a cut and dry Google Wack, but its about as close as you're going to get because of all the creepy shenanegans people do with wordlists and spam.

Many thanks to Jeff (no, another Jeff, actually) for bringing this to our attention, and taking the time to shoot us an email.
