Googlewhack Shmooglewhack

Flush from the massive success of getting listed at number one on Google for Mister Flapdoodle, we've been looking for a new challenge. Innocently, one has presented itself. "Have you got a googlewhack pointing to your site?" Aha! An opportunity for further pointlessness.

So, can we engineer a googlewhack pointing to bee-bay? Well, no.

the ugly problem

Bill Gates' Finger of Fudge.

The first rule of googlewhacking requires that both search words must be in the dictionary Google uses. Immediately that makes the entire enterprise not very interesting. We like words not in the dictionary - a malapropism here, a portmanteau there. But we also like the principle of having a googlewhack pointing here. So...

the elegant solution

So we invent a word:

Shmooglewhack. A googlewhack that permits slang search terms.

Thus, a shmooglewhack allows for slang words including neologisms, protologisms, sniglets, and nonce words. And shmooglewhack itself is most definitely a nonce word, thus completing the circle in fine fashion. Honour is satisfied in every direction.

And once Google has updated its index in a few days (Mister Flapdoodle took about a week), Googlewhack Shmooglewhack will become a shmooglewhack. In fact, shmooglewhack will be a googlewhackblatt, which means it will return a single result all by itself.

How about that?

A word is born. Soon, most likely, to die. But such is life. Evolution is a harsh, ugly mistress with sharp features.
