      I like the idea that Google can lose copyright over the verb “to google” if people keep misusing it. So just google it with your favourite search engine if you don’t like Google, screw em ;)

        That’s very mild misuse. Why not substitute something completely different with “googling”. Like wiping an ass or sorting the garbage. In modern times of the Internet and memes it is doable:)

          Because that’s not how language naturally velcroes new vocabulary into the dumpster of lexicon. I have neither Band-Aids for boo boos or Kleenex for tears. If your ass is chapped by my language may I recommend chapstick, be sure to use a q-tip to apply it to your popsicle hole.
