1. The reader was determined to star search until he discovered the meaning behind that asterisk.

2. The next time I star search something and discover the author failed to include the associated footnote, I'm gonna get myself a sawed-off shotgun, find that m**ther f**ker, and blow off the head of that douche bag Jackass-terisk.

Search Karate

A competition where people with different types of smartphones race to search the Internet to answer a question.

It usually flares up between people full of either iPhone or Android pride. Anyone with a Blackberry is left in the dust.

Me: Hmm. I wonder how many licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop.

Eliot: "I'll find out with my iPhone."

Matt: "No way, Galaxy S4 is better."

Me: "SEARCH KARATE!!"

<Everyone proceeds to whip out their phone and search the answer>

Stevie: "No fair, I have a Blackberry :( "

search engine

A clever device used with the internet, usually used by school-aged children for reports, etc. Unfortunetly, there are downsides to this information mecca. Most results include pornography, which really should not be seen by school aged children. Sites include Google, Ask Jeeves, and AltaVista.

Little Bobby: Mr. Teacher, I typed in the search engine "Horny Frog" and I got all this stuff...does this have to do with the horny frog?
Mr. Teacher: "Come see live horny girls frog each other!?" My! Tommy, shut it off now!
