      I’m certainly old, but I’ve been trying for a year or 2 to stop using giant corporation names as verbs. “Google it” became “look it up” or “research it”.

    I’ll have to Yahoo Search it, but I doubt it will know. Guess I’ll have to Archie it.

    (I do not recall archie (or any of the others) being used as verbs, though).

    I say, “I need to outsource my intelligence” or a variation thereof.

    If you know where that’s from, good for you.

    Saying “just Startpage it” just doesn’t sound the same
