Grim Googling

A portmanteau of "The Grim Reaper" and "Googling," this term describes when you Google long lost friends, extended family members, coworkers or even enemies to see if they are still alive. Typically this is done by inputting their name along with "obituary" into a search engine such as Google to see if anything comes up. This is sometimes--but ertainly not always--done in order to experience a feeling of schadenfreude.
"I went grim googling last night and found out that the first boss I ever had at my first job is now dead."

Google Feud

Created on April 23, 2013, Google Feud is what you get when you cross Family Feud with Google.

You are asked how Google autocompletes an incomplete search result, with 10 possible answers.

The catch is that there will almost always be at least 2-4 answers that make absolutely no sense. You'll need a very strange and dirty mind in order to play this game well...
(From Markiplier's first vid of Google Feud)
"NEVER PUT A QUESTION MARK WHERE GOD?!"

"NEVER PUT A HAT ON YOUR BED?!"

"NEVER PUT A SOCK IN A TOASTER?!"

WTF IS THAT???

Google Divider

The "google" tab or other neutral tab you have open in a browser between your work tabs and your personal tabs. Thus meaning if a work tab is closed, a blank tab is shown without exposing the tabs open for personal use such as shopping, lolcats, etc.
The boss came into my office as I closed a tab in firefox, luckily for me I had a Google Divider in between the work bank tab, and my ebay shopping tab.

Google-and-confirm

The most popular way of verifying unconfirmed facts, rumors, and unproven assertions by anyone. If it's in Google, then it might have merit. Although, it should be noted that reading the actual articles is completely different from just reading the search results and webpage titles, so the facts might still remain unconfirmed.
I just Google-and-confirmed it, the search results say that Justin Bieber is, as a matter of fact, gay.

Groupie Fan Girl: No way! You just checked the search results and didn't read the articles, it's not true!

google craps

A more specific and truthful description of "Google Maps" — the directions provided by Google Maps that lead you to a place not even remotely close to your desired terminus. Essentially, whether you reach your desired destination is a crapshoot.
"I followed the directions from Google Craps about how to go from midtown Manhattan to Lord & Taylor in Scarsdale; however, I wound up at a beach in Mamaroneck."

Google Spaz

A person (or persons) who, despite much frenzied effort, take an exponentially greater time to find an answer to an obvious question.
Wife: what's the name of that song by Pink I love.

Me: pass me your phone and I will Google it
Wife: no I will do it. What. Do you think I am useless.

Me: Of course not darling.

5 hours later...
Wife: At last.. Give me one last kiss
Me: Fuck me. You are kidding. You are truly a Google Spaz.
