We had a contest awhile back, triggered by peedub, I think. Of course I can’t find the link.Over 100 funny suggestions were made by members of the collective; Ben and Andrew have a “compliment gnome” who types them in every few minutes.

Dave; How did you find those so quickly. Surely not with the Fluther search engine?

To search Fluther via Google:

Use these keywords:

site:fluther.com “text”

The text part is where you enter what you are searching for. So in Dave’s example, it would be site:fluther.com “Fluther Greetings”
