An extremely important poll.
When you're testing something that involves some typing - as in, you need to send a test email, or make a test blog post - what piece of text do you usually type in?
If no one else is going to see it, I instinctively type "trala." I don't know where that came from. A second iteration, if necessary, will be "tralala," and so on. If someone else will see it, though, it's always "Testing.", with the punctuation - evidently I am shamed by my own tralalaing.
These rules are suspended when it's a search query of any kind, because regardless of whether anyone's watching, I always feel it necessary to search for "elephants." I can't explain that, either. I guess I just want some elephants.

My other generic search is "manatee", which I picked up from a co-worker. Said co-worker also searches for "Cat Island" because it *should* bring up stuff about an island named Cat Island if proximity matters in the search algorithm, and lots of stuff about cats and lots of stuff about islands otherwise.

That is probably a good policy to adopt.
