I think Rho covered a lot of it in her response, but to answer the question - it's the search results that are rather - stupid.
It's been a while since I've used the FAQ search (mostly b/c it's 1000x's easier to just ask my f'list) - but searching, even for simple things like 'userpics' can result in some really bizarre hits. And we're talking more bizarre than getting photos of Brad Pitt when searching for Jennifer Morrison (b/c I sort of know how that happens).
