search tangent

When using an online search engine, you see something more interesting that causes you to follow trails unrelated to what you came to search for. Sometimes you forget what you meant to look up in the first place.
Pete: Did you find those instructions on how to make functional battle spears from old rake handles?

Me: Uh, no. Sorry. I went on a search tangent and forgot. But check out these pix of Britney.

search history 

the shitty list of things that you need to clear out of your pc
I found lots of interesting websites on my teenage son's search history.

search me 

A phrase meaning "I don't know," or "How should I know?" It can sometimes be used in an indignant manner.
Person #1: Where's my left shoe?
Person #2: Search me.

"So why are you still here?" Harry asked Ron.
"Search me," said Ron.
"Go home then," said Harry.

search song 

A song on your Ipod that you listen to while you scroll through your playlist for a better song. Also, a good fallback in case someone listening to your Ipod with you insults your choice of song.
Girl 1: Hey can I share your Ipod
Girl 2: Of course!
Girl 1: The Best of Both Worlds? Are you kidding me?
Girl 2: Relax, it's just a search song

Search Google or type URL 

Search google or type URL is something you type when your life is going nowhere and you have so little going on that you have to type something so worthless. It might also be typed when someone is really bored and on the verge of crossing the plane of existence into a infinite pit of boredom.
