Want to be Helpful - But Feeling a Little Snarky?
The word "helpful" is self explanatory - but "snarky"? The Urban Dictionary defines snarky as
A witty mannerism, personality, or behavior that is a combination of sarcasm and cynicism. Usually accepted as a complimentary term. Snark is sometimes mistaken for a snotty or arrogant attitude.
"Her snarky remarks had half the room on the floor laughing and the other half ready to walk out."

I love it!!! I have a friend who constantly asks me to look something up for him when he could do it himself --- drives me nuts. I am sending this to him next time. This is just so perfect & so hilarious. Thanks for making my day.
Excellent Darlene!
At the end of your email (with the embedded lmgtfy.com link), add "Dennis made me do it" - or "the devil made me do it".
I've been called worse :)

*mad giggles* the irony for me today is taking care of my Google browser hijack....and having to manually write google.com. oh, the horror! ; )
lol - Dennis this is mint! I bet nearly everyone has felt that way at least once when someone asked a question.
You know what though ... I ask a lot of questions even knowing I can use Google or the WA search function (just realized this a few days ago and I've been here since January). I just don't know why I never think to do that when I go through the process of asking the question. no that is phenomenon.
Have you ever pressed the "I'm Feeling Lucky" button under Google? I've always wondered what it does.
ROCK ON!

Greetings Eric!
Google has all kinds of silliness available - some of which involves the "I'm feeling lucky" button.
For example, go to the Google search and type Google Gravity. Click on "I'm Feeling lucky".
Enjoy!
Dennis
