The power supply to our modem at home has died, so no internet at home last night! And the netbook wouldn't connect to the open wireless in the neighborhood. Woe.

Also I am totally paranoid that our internet being down means SYTYCD didn't get recorded. I would be SO SAD.

Google fail for those of us who don't fucking want a background. I might be a bit cranky.

there is an all white option.

might be a bit cranky

might?

thank dog the boys stopped playing the video game. legos is so much quieter.

I agree, Sara. Even the White background didn't work for me, because then the word Google is all white too.

eta: that was posted before I saw msbelle's post.

Gray is slightly less offensive. But I don't want a picture at allllllllll.

Oh my god, I want to stab google today. They seem to be allergic to the concept of opt-in.

but aren't you on the homepage for like a few seconds? Or do people keep google up on a second screen at all times. I am kinda amazed at the amount of outrage here and fb. possibly I am just still too groggy to think like a real person.

Pretty funny, but I do get a blank white screen. I'm not sure what evil things you people did in past lives to deserve this torment.

I'm just annoyed. I don't like visual clutter, and I don't like random images appearing on my screen at work that I'm not expecting. I'd expect google to be PG, but for a moment there (before coming here and seeing it was a Thing) I wondered if I'd a) typed the address wrong b)something was hacked because wtf were those psycho metallic phallic balloon maybe animal things?

I frequently leave open in one of several tabs at work, because I use it so often.

And now I am even more annoyed (mad was too strong), because I REALLY don't want a picture on my work Google.
