The cyberquivalent of Dennis Millering.
officially tallied Wit and Coup scores are dependent on the following conditions:
1. that the reference is sufficiently orthogonal to anything like "common knowledge"
2. that the particular point of the obscure reference is something cool
Extra scoring awarded if:
a) the reference constitutes a double entendre
b) the reference means something different to different people
Not to be confused with googlebating (which uses a whole other set of mouse fingers)

To Google bait is to tempt Google's suggestion bar feature by typing in a random phrase and seeing what it advises you to finish the phrase with and search for. It is a proven cure for boredom, as there is a high frequency of crazy-ass shit showing up.

Get the Google Baiting mug.A novel practice engaged in by cyberspammers, who abuse free sites like OpenDiary and LiveJournal by creating pages that have links to their websites. Since the Google scoring system that elevates a page to the top of a list depends on the number of pages that link to a target site, the practice supposedly raises a page's ranking on Google (and other search engines). It is prohibited by most of the sites where it is practiced.
"Dear Diarymaster, this site violates the terms and conditions, it is googleblasting a sex site to improve its ranking."
