If you've ever been through on-boarding at a large company, you'd pick water-boarding over it.

Yes, or even "haul over and prepare to be boarded".
I think it's more of a verbified adjective though.

I don't do web work that often. I had to search for hosting provider and instead of go daddy, I searched for big daddy. I didn't liked what I saw. What embarrassing searches have you done?

Not me but wifey, who is an early childhood teacher, was learning the kids that girls can do the same jobs as boys. One of the lads said they couldn't be firemen cos, afterall, they're "fire men".
So she did a search (not at work mind you) for photo's of fire women to show the kids the next day. The results she got weren't - ahem - exactly child appropriate.

I was interested in large, shoulder-mounted, anti-tank weapons.
Imagine my surprise when I searched for "huge bazookas"!

I was building an old Geocities site (yeah, that far back) and wanted to highlight popular links, so I searched for "new.gif", which was ok, and then "hot.gif", which wasn't

A couple of fond memories spring to mind immediately.
A friend of my mother's was trying to buy rolls of fabric online. You can buy 1/4 of a length of fabric, at full width or you can buy 1/4 of the width of the roll at the whole length. In each case, it's a quarter of a roll. The unfortunate term used for the narrow one is "Fat quarter" - mum's friend was suitably shocked when consulting google with the term's plural. 
The other one was the exploits of a teacher at a local college. During the presentation one day of
France, she'd decided to do a google for 'Paris' while the computer was outputting to the video-projector. Hilarity and red-faces ensued.

I'm never embarrassed, no matter what I find. These are just the moments when I raise an eyebrow and am more than ever convinced that I come from another planet. Unfortunately I can't recall how I got here or where I came from.

May be you can google "where I came from". I guess you might get some NSFW results there. If you know what I mean.

My ex-wife's second husband (an American) managed to keep a straight face, saying he had been looking for recipes from home, when she discoverd the search results for "cream pie" on the PC. She actually believed him!

We've got to do better at work, and I don't have the time or interest to write anything. We have a clever lady in the office who is willing to figure out how to use a decent web development tool set, but she has no interest in becoming a guru. Does someone know of a packaged solution that can handle a small website, dashboard, calendar, event schedule, etc, that a non-developer can maintain easily? It doesn't have to be free, but it does have to be easy.
