i dont know what to search right now why the fuck am I on urbandictionary 

When you are surfing Urban [Dictionary] and you reach the point of satisfaction where you've sufficed yourself with countless memes, crude humor, random slangs and whoever the fuck Samantha Mackenzie is and why she's so beautiful/amazing/etc... then you proceed to type this very sentence into the search box. You probably only wanted to search something like "I dont know what" or "I dont know what to search" which lead you to this post. Realize now that you are here, in this very point in space and time. Embrace it. Then continue to question what the fuck you're still doing on this page, and why you're still reading this.
Guy to self: "Alright, time to find out what a loli is!"

-stares blankly at screen-

Guy to self: "Wait, what was I.. ah, whatever!"

-proceeds to type out "i dont know what to search right now" and ends up on this very page, which autocompleted as "i dont know what to search right now why the fuck am I on urbandictionary" and had to be mentioned within this example because of Urban Dictionary guidelines-

Searchency 

The root word to search means to look through, to examine, to analyze and even to locate certain items - in a file, a database or a text. The origin of the word search can be traced back to the latin circāre that means to go round. The suffix –ency can denote an act of doing something, a state or a condition. So the meaning of the word searchency can be described as an act of search that finds favourable conditions for attaining its end. Another hypothesis as to the origin of this word is that it derives from the clipping of the two words making up the combination search transparency.
Here are some instances of its use in modern English:
1. It is not that all search engines can ensure real searchency.
2. The question of the searchency principle is very important.
3. It is still not the real searchency we need.
4. The user can doubt the searchency principle of some popular search engines.

why am i searching this up 

You are clearly bored and don't know what to search so I put this just to say I defined this first BTW why the fuck are you reading this? And why am i searching this up?

I forgot what I wanted to search 

Forget something? Well, most likely, what you're trying to search is something you just heard or read a few seconds to a few hours ago. I'd start by backtracking on what you've done or been involved in. Hope this helps!
"Help! I forgot what I wanted to search!"

1. What's the last article/page you were on?
2. What site was it?
3. What was your last converstion about?
4. Where were you last?/Where were you going?

2nd page of google search 

The only place you can safely hide a dead body with no chance of people finding it.
The 2nd page of Google search is the last place anyone will look for answers.

Why am I searching this?

I don't know. You tell me. Seriously. You are asking a website a question that only you know. If you are searching this and want to know why you are searching this, then look into your brain, because I can't tell you.

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
