Poll of the Day > I hate when I try searching for something

(+) Yeah! (+)

But something else shares a name with it and dominates the results.

I don't care about some ABC Ninja Warrior knockoff, I just wanna listen to Surfaris!

I'm with you. I have no idea why boolean search operators stopped being a thing. Why would something that was a key feature of every search engine in the 90s/early 00s is something google can't handle?

or you search season 2, episode 3 (for example). the top several results it gives are season 3, episode 2.

Or you try to search for the US release date for a movie and it gives you the Italian one instead >_>

Add a dash in front of something to remove any results that have the thing following the minus.

For example, if I was searching for a picture of a viper, and I kept getting pictures of cars, I could go

viper -car

and it would remove any pictures of cars and probably show mostly snakes. Or I could go

viper -snake

and it would remove any pictures of snakes and probably show me mostly cars.
