google_search_autofillYou know when you’re so close to another person that they literally finish your sentences for you? Well, Google's kinda like that person for all of us. When we have a question or are searching for information, Google tries to guess what we’re searching for before we even finish typing out our query.

While the search engine’s dedication and devotion is unmatched, its Autocomplete suggestions are not always on the money. Sometimes, they're hilarious. Sometimes, they're puzzling. Other times, they're just downright depressing. But most of the time, they offer an interesting look at what people think about a certain search query. 

So we decided to run a little experiment to see how Google Autocomplete feels about marketing today. Warning: The results are sometimes funny, sometimes disheartening, and sometimes NSFW. But we won't spoil them for you. Check 'em out below.
