Ever been searching a phrase on Google only to have a list of options pop up? Those suggestions, or auto-completes, are based on how often similar searches are conducted and can indicate trends for any given topic.

Recently, Australian search optimization agency Search Factory examined those trends to see just how frequent - and sometimes how odd - those auto completes can be.

Here's what they found:

1,000 people a month Google "how to hide a dead body." Another 1,900 a month ask "how to get away with murder."

There are 110 monthly searches for cat dating and 390 for "how to make my cat love me." Hopefully, these are not asked by the same people.

Not-safe-for-work queries are popular, and 135,000 people a month asked Google to show them Lady Gaga in her birthday suit. Another 18,100 asked if Lady Gaga is a man.

14,800 people asked "how to ask a guy out." More than half of those - 9,900 - asked "how to mend a broken heart."

40,500 asked Google "why did I get married?" and, apparently not getting the answer they sought, another 5,400 asked "how to have an affair."

22,000 people a month typed "I hate my job" into the Google search and "how to win the lottery" averages about 40,500 searches a month.

And then, if you really want to lose faith in humanity, consider this. There are 1,000 monthly Google searches on "how do I use Google" and another 4,400 monthly searches on "how do I Google something."
