I have been noticing lately that I Google some pretty embarrassing things. I know I am not alone too. I just cant stand it, when I start typing into the Google search bar, and it tries to predict what Im searching by bringing up past searches. Most of my embarrassing ones, are searching definitions or spelling of words I know a grown ass man should know how to spell.

The career building website Zippia crunched the numbers on Google search data from around the country, and they came up with some of the most embarrassing searches in every state.

According to Zippia

Using Google Trends, we determined the most embarrassing thing each state googles more than any other. Google searches are a great way to learn more about people, because people Google pretty transparently, with no self-conscious thoughts. Although judging from the data, maybe they should feel a little self-conscious.

We look at searches ranging from August 2019 to August 2020, giving us a full year of cringey internet searches.

We searched hundreds of terms ranging from awkward medical questions, reality shows and unpopular movies, conspiracy theories, unfashionable clothing, and other mortifying queries.

The results were AWESOME!

Some of my favorite include:

Iowa . . . "How to get fired."

Indiana . . . "How is a baby made?"

Vermont . . . "Where is Canada?"

West Virginia . . . "Why is my poop green?"

But, one of the strangest results of the study comes from right here in Montana. Our most embarrassing Google search is simply "Nick Nolte." Yeah! Nick Nolte. Co-Star with Eddie Murphy on one of my all time favorite "buddy cop" films "48 Hours." And star of the movie "Blue Chips." Not to mention all of his other great roles in over 40 years of cinema.

BUT WHY IS MONTANA GOOGLING ABOUT NICK NOLTE?

My guess is it has something to do with his role in the hit Disney+ show "The Mandelorian."
