Go to google.co.uk
Type in "collaborateurs"
Press search
Laugh at the sponsored link that comes up

[gopher]

[TadKa]

I don't get it. What does collaborateurs mean?

If you typed in a derogatory term and New Zealand came up as a result, you might laugh being an Australian. Well collaborateurs brings up a sponsored link for Citroen, a FRENCH company which makes us laugh. . . . . . .

are you using google.co.uk? it works for me

[andy400]

While we're on the subject, have you ever changed the display language to 'Elmer Fudd'?

Makes me giggle like a maniac without fail.

ETA: 'Pirate' is very funny too.....

"did not match any documents, did you mean 'French Military Defeats'?" not funny enough for you?

[The Curn]

The key is to type in French Military Victories and then hit "I'm feeling Lucky"

I mean: No it didn't provide the original page that was rendered a long time ago when performing this search.
Yes it made me laugh, as I'm sure it did with others, and continues to do so.
Google wised up, and albino blacksheep, along with others copied the page:

http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/text/victories.htm...
That is what you hit if you click "I'm feeling lucky"

Is that a comprehensive enough answer for you, or is there still something unclear ?

Oh, I see. Exactly the same wording but in a different layout.

Ok.
