These are Ireland’s most Googled questions

JOE

Irish people, we’re madder than a bag of spiders.

Google has completely erased the curiosity levels in us, because anything that we need answered can be instantly obtained by a quick search.

Every year Google compiles a list of what has been most searched by each country.

Ireland’s most searched ‘How To’s’ of last year are a rather bizarre mix of the expected, hilarious and quintessentially Irish.

The most common question that was Googled last last year won’t come as a surprise to anyone because we’ve all become obsessed with Snapchat over the last few years.

However the third one ‘how to eat pomelo’ completely baffles us. What is a pomelo and why do so many people want to know about it?

Bleeding radiators, hickeys and Conor McGregor all come up in the top ten.

Here’s the full list.

How to use the new Snapchat
2 How to make pancake mix
3 How to eat pomelo
4 How to draw a Minion
 5 How to bleed radiators
 6 How to make loom bands
 How to watch McGregor fight in Ireland
 8 How to get rid of hickeys fast
 9 How to get rid of brain freeze

10 How to view a solar eclipse

Bear in mind that these are the most googled ‘How to’s’ of 2015, but we’re predicting that 2016’s list will contain even more questions about Snapchat filters, Jon Snow and Liam and Cheryl.
