@Manuel: Better to quote it correctly, don’t you think, so it’s correctly represented and the warning is truly valid. It’s been plastered all over the Web already. We doubt that our readers have any trouble understanding our very plain warning.

There’s a very funny discussion with some brilliant comments about the “client server database” SERP incident on Reddit (and again, a bit NSFW):

Looks like our rant about Google search rankings last week wasn’t completely irrelevant:

A faqs.org page which described a client/server database as a graphic sex act had ended up #1 in the Google SERPs, with the perverse language in the snippet.
Its still there, if you care to see. I can’t believe I’m writing this, but the following google link is probably NSFW:

If they take it down I’ve got a screenshot, but its been up for at least a week.
