You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

As long as he does it in the privacy of his own home, what's the harm?

Dude. There are kids in said home. Won't somebody think of the children?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Yes. Even more disturbing than the actual search terms is the fact that the person seems to think that Google is perhaps not producing enough "torture" related results, and that by putting extra emphasis on the desire for web pages relating to "torture," they'll somehow get more satisfactory search results.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

No, the most disturbing part is that we were one of the satisfactory search results.

Actually, even more disturbing than that is the diligence with which this person went through their results, checking out each page. That search string, even with the highest level of filtering set in Google preferences?

Does not produce b.org in the first five pages.

Huh, if we're a valid response to the creepy torture search string, Google won't let me see it, no matter how strict or loose my settings.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It mightn't have been Google, Sean.

Ah.

Now I'm worried of which strange search engine produce us as a valid result to that search string.
