Funny stuff for Mozilla/FireFox users...

For all you Mozilla and Mozilla FireFox users, try typing each of the following phrases into the ADDRESS BAR (not google search). No http, no www, no .com. Just the phrase, exactly as it appears here.
Try each one

miserable failure

buggy insecure browser

idiot

bunch of blithering idiots

Watch the results and get a laugh. I wonder if the Mozilla creators put some of those in on purpose?
Can anyone else find funny stuff?

if you put any phrase in thats not a URL it does a google on it and takes the first return. for instance, try

weapons of mass destruction

Mozilla didnt put these in, its a feature of google.

It's what SoX said. People have been "Google bombing" to get certain pages to be the on the top of the list to prove some wierd point or something.

ROFL Good for a laugh!

Putting the abovbe phrases into Google and hitting 'I'm Feeling Lucky" gets the exact same result.

Still, some of the results are quite funny. Quite a number of them (such as buggy insecure browser and blithering idiots) point to Microsoft...

Odd. I use mozilla but what happens is it says its not a valid url and cannot be loaded.

Something I find funny is the reatiuon of a certain page to display in different browsers.

See, I just installed Firefox on my dad's computer (not that he knows this yet...), and he has his homepage set to MSN. On IE it looks terrible, because he uses Large Fonts (40 years of using computer displays have fucked his eyes up something rotten), and the embedded images they've used for backgrounds refuse to scale properly to the font size.

Because they strip that out for displaying it in proper browsers, it actually looks right in firefox. MSN looks better if you use a non-microsoft browser (at least at larger font sizes)

Well, you can get the same effect from going to Google and using the "I'm Feeling Lucky" button.

Vendetta: LOL!
