Google Shaming

In addition to shaming a commenter who could have easily Googled an answer themselves, instead of asking and waiting around for someone to do it for them it can mean...

Shaming someone for using Google to understand something, or as the basis of their research. Just because you didn't get it from JSTOR doesn't mean it isn't a valid place to do your research. It's about thinking critically about your sources, not just the ease with which you got them. Don't Google Shame.
Person A: I have an opinion on a subject in which I am not an expert because of the things I have Googled...
Person B: Google isn't a fuckin degree, yo! Your hardly an expert!
Person A: Duh, get outta here with your Google Shaming. I can still be an educated, multi-faceted person who can form an opinion, yo.
Person B: Why don't you kill yourself and leave the opinions to the people who actually do this.
Person A: fuckin internet comments. *sigh*

Google Debunker

A term coined by TikTok creator Filip Zieba, who often covers conspiracy theories and pseudoarchaeology. It is used (by Filip himself) to shame and/or dissuade skeptics of Filip's content by calling them "google debunkers" and implying that a Google search that would disprove his misinformation is itself the misinformation.
"The Google Debunkers out there will claim that this is 'giant sloth' skeleton is real, but come on, it's obviously a primordial giant human."
(shows a picture of a Megatherium, a real extinct species of giant sloth)

google problem

An unflattering Google search result when one's name is used.
Coined by Jon Stewart of the "Daily Show", when referring to former conservative Republican Senator from PA, and Presidential hopeful, Rick Santorum and the definition that appears in the #2 spot of a Google search entering his name. Google Santorum, or use the Urban Dictionary, undoubtedly this could cause embarrassment when prospective voters research his name.
If I had, " The frothy mix of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the product of anal sex ", associated with my name, that would be a Google problem.
