It's seriously worries me how much Google knows.  Given its recent track record on privacy, I should really consider using other services.  Too bad Google's are so good and easy to use. smithicide;


I wonder what it got 'musical films' from.  I hope it's just from looking up random Disney songs in other languages on Youtube. myface;

also, i wonder why it specifices 'american football' for ypr considering that it uses 'soccer' for association football [all other forms of 'football' are usually single-country sports lol]

the only shooters i can think of you playing are either shmups or third person shooters where the focus isn't entirely on shooting.
