Hey, I just wanted to complain about search boxes on web sites that did not search the site that they were placed on.

What about search boxes on websites that do search the site that they were placed on but do an incredibly shitting job of it? Like forum searches that won't let you filter by sub-forum. Civfanatics, I am looking at you.

It is particular. I've had it return different results than Google more than once.

(note: obviously none of this applies if your primary occupation is to plummet.)

In that case, is your life narrated by Casey Kasem?

I think that lockin prescriptive/descriptive grammar threads in general is a good idea, but since this is explicitly a thread about being pedantic and dickish about tiny things, ala Pat, I'll allow it here. Go nuts, kids.
