QUICK: What Does This Internet Think?

Ever wondered what the Internet is thinking about something? Now there’s a new tool that claims to do just that by taking the world wide web’s temp (i.e. doing a search of some kind), then boiling down all of the comments, posts and pages it finds to just three simple feelings (positive, negative, or indifferent). Only, I’m not so sure it works. According to this thing, the web is 76% positive on  Iran. It also says it’s 66% pro Hitler. And 89% in favor of my penis. So is it broken, or is the web just was more cheery today than ever before? Only one way to know: Try to make the system return a negative result and post your findings below.

    The only thing I could get a negative result for is:

    Paedopphiles

    82,2 % negative
    17.1 % postive

    ,but it took me a long time to think of something so gross that nobody would like it. And btw it is a good sign that, according to the site, nobody does.
