Easily googled. Hi, welcome to hacker news. May I offer you some articles to read?

Hi. I easily googled "two-part greeting". Now I know it's about the greeting at the drive thru in McDonalds when you want two McDoubles.

Wait. No. That can't be it. It's about two critiques in drive thru greetings.

Wait. No. That seems irrelevant as well. It's a Yuletide thing? Answering the phone?

Wait. It's not easily googled. It's an obscure term of art apparently.

Hmm, not easily googled? I got something about drive-thrus but nothing actually using the term.

Why does anybody come to HN, except to find articles to read?

How would you know something is easily googled if you've never heard the term before?

It is simply an observation. There was apparently no overlapping term from say, network engineering, or dramaturgy, to confuse the search. Contrast with "Go (programming language) - Wikipedia" which led to the invention of "golang" as a keyword so that programmers could search out programming articles for that language efficiently.

BTW I did enjoy reading the article I found on "two-part greeting." [1]

Why does anybody go to McDonald's except to place an order?

Why does anyone visit a recipe site except to read half a novel about how the author remembers his childhood when dunking madeleines in their linden-flower tea? ;-)
