Interrogative expletives

Ever wondered how many phrases fit the regexp '* the fuck'? A short inquiry into the world's greatest database, would tell you that the phrases which make sense, are only of the interrogative type. I'll just let the results speak.


9 results for whose, 5 for whence and 4 for whither. Feel free to post your conclusions in the comments section.

'What' was undoubtedly going to be the hands down winner. I'm surprised that 'why' and 'who' are behind 'where' and 'how'. I thought 'who' would come a clear second.
Heights of joblessness, btw. :D

Aniket,

Man, I'm so bored these days. I really don't feel like blogging these days as is evident from the lack of imagination in the post. And I'm so frustoo that I'm venting out my frustapa in a comment on my own blog post. Argh!

obelix,

I'm sure you would do well to come up something funny on that topic :)
