We can all relate to the experience of typing into the [Google](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/let-me-google-that) search engine and having some bizarre Google searches pop-up as a recommendations. Artist Josh Mecouch decided that it would funny to draw some of those really out there Google search recommendations.

Once you stop laughing at some of the really bizarre Google searches people make, you're laughing all over again when you see Josh Mecouch render them. It's not until you see what "Americans think Obama is a cactus" or "Pop Tarts are not Kleenex" truly looks like can you comprehend the full ridiculousness of some these searches.

The Google search recommendations are based around your location, I wonder where Josh must live in order to get such bizarre Google recommendations.
