Well, mine still shows the absolutely first thing I ever searched for when I got the computer before this one at work and then merged onto the new one. So I'm not gonna get my feelings hurt if anyone has a remedy.

It's probably a Safari thing. A quick Google shows a lot of people complaining about the accuracy of that list. The only thing I can think of that's related to the Swamp is that we are http and not https since we never bought a certificate. Maybe Safari won't suggest non-https sites?

I would guess it uses your historical browser history to make suggestions. Mine suggests the Swamp, but it also suggests Longform, which is a site I stopped going to a couple years ago after going through their entire list of links to read articles that interested me and they stopped adding new ones. It also lists the main page of a fantasy league twice, so...

Yeah, don't know what's going on. Maybe some bots are being aggressive. Seems to be working better now though.

Isn’t it ironic? Don’t you think? For a site with 5 new members in the last 10 years. Yeah I really do think…

It’s usually cuz IP addresses aren’t being released. Unless you’re seeing a traffic spike on whatever security the site is using to monitor that activity?

Now how are we supposed to discuss our experiences as not-yet-out gay teenagers dragged to Hooters?

That was an interesting article, and made me think of a great standup routine by Fortune Feimster (lesbian comedian) who talked about loving going to Hooters as a kid and not understanding why.
