because the google search started out at zero hits.
i think the SEO algorithms use some sort of "phrase"-rank test for a given keyword set i.e. googlesearch for sites with "fat, free, pie" take the highest ranking ones and use the phrases google selects out of them.

Don't you remember? This was the begging of our realm. It's because of the way those first three comments were arraigned. The letters, in certain sequences... The spacing and punctuation.
chococat invoked the spell. Admiral Haddock invoked immediately again, giving it the tiny shove to topple the waveform of random chance, and then Citrus... Oh, CitrusFreak12. Why did it have to be you? He created the warp. The wormhole. That's what created this... place. It ensnared us all.
We exist here within the roped-up-testicles-pole-up-the-ass collective. We are all shards of that shattered Once-Was, scattered to the ground across the Patterns of the Nine. We all manifest facets of the Patterns.
From the Codex of Faux Reality, chapter Rotato, verses Slapchop through Shamwow: The Warrior confronts the enemy directly just as the Deciever approaches amicably from behind.
The Builder erects his fortificatons at the same instant the Destroyer seeks to raze.
The Juggernaut obliterates all with his crushing weight.
The Immolator seeks only to smother the world in flames.
Watching from afar, the deadly Hunter lays in wait.
And the Harbinger dances past them all to visit death upon the Healer.
And the cycle repeats nightly, yearly (occasionally interleaved with undead plagues), as the ones bound to this world await patiently for the Returning of the CitrusFreak Duodecimus. He is coming.

Kunta means exactly what you think it means in Icelandic. They didn't change the characters name or bleep it out or anything when it was shown in Iceland. Píka, as in Pikachu, means vagina in Icelandic. Didn't change Pikachu's name or had him say anything else as he gamboled about on Icelandic children's television. posted by Kattullus at 12:00 PM on April 17, 2009 [2 favorites]

Hey, me too! (Although I did that to myself, jumping on the bed. OTOH, I gave my sister stitches throwing a spade at her head. In my defense, I wasn't aiming at her, I was aiming past her to scare her off because she was being so fucking annoying. In her defense, she was 6 at the time. 20+ years later, you can just barely see the scar below her hairline.

There is nothing I enjoy more than seeing an alphabet thread attempted, only to have it sputter and die.
ALPHABET THREADS are STRICTLY VERBOTEN! posted by Meatbomb at 2:54 PM on April 18, 2009
To a spammer, the best phrase is one with a lot of google searches and no results. As Geos pointed out, there were originally no results for that phrase. But the comment that Geos points to in the original thread likely generated a lot of searches using that phrase with no results. Spammer gold.
My guess is that if you wanted to see more of this sort of thing (you don't) you would link to google searches for nonsense phrases in the blue. Regarding fat free blueberry pie, I would think that a lot of people want a good recipe for it but nobody has one (lots of searches, no results). Quick googling confirms that recipes for fat-free pie crust will likely lead to something that does not taste good. posted by The Loch Ness Monster at 5:16 PM on April 18, 2009 [1 favorite]
