Not to be too much of a downer, but all of these cute Google search results and other "quirky" "fun" things billion dollar corporations do used to seem so harmless but now it just reads like a friendly logo on a baby mulching machine.

My wife. She's a software developer. She also uses Chrome. I honestly don't get it. The other day she Googled a particular hotel and the top results were websites pretending to be the hotel.

Google used to do these because they were cool.

Now Google still does these because they want us to think they're still cool.
