Try this before someone forces Google to fix its site:

1) Go to http://www.google.de

2) Type in: weapons of mass destruction (DO NOT hit return button!)

3) Hit the "Auf gut Glück" button, NOT the "Google search"

4) Read the "error message" carefully.

Someone at Google has a sense of humour. And will probably be fired soon.

it's too funny! :rofl:

Given that it's not hosted from Google's main site, it's probably not an internal gag, but actually how the page is intended to display. That is the site that was registered using those keywords for the equivalent of "I'm Feeling Lucky". To that end, someone does have a sense of humor. Too bad they don't get to vote for our elections.

Someone in England is making some fat bank off of it.

The "WoMD" has actually been around for about 2-3 years, so I don't think it's internal.

You can go there directly from google by clicking this link.

It's not hack of google's. It's just the best match for "weapons of mass destruction" based off of googles algorithm.

The url I use for it is:

Code: Select all

http://www.google.com/search?&q=weapons+of+mass+destruction&btnI=Google+Search

It's worked for a few years, at least.
