    Just a heads up, that 41 million number of results is actually a lie. if you click a few dozen pages in it abruptly stops.

      I think the reason for the high result count is because it allows results with both fuck and spez,

      "fuck spez" OR "fuck u/spez" site:reddit.com

      gives around 103,000 results which is probably more accurate, but sadly less hilarious.

        that and the fact that google and other search engines just lie about the number of results. you really only get a few hundred results for stuff.

          keep trying to explain this to people. did you watch the guy on YouTube about internet rot? can’tremembere the name of him. he actually bothers to go through the results

            yup I did it myself as well. though when I check google now they seem to have removed the page numbers? now they have an infinite scroll thing. but it still happens on bing where they give phantom pages lol.

        I don’t know. If 103 000 people told me to fuck off, I’d be off to contemplate my life choices. That’s a big number still!
