Googling a Little Perspective

Let’s just take a quick glance at the Interwebs, shall we? We’re going to search certain terms for a quick unscientific sociological bite:

“Wedding favors”-2.2 million hits 
“Charitable donations”-1.6 million hits

“Destination weddings”-1.7 million hits
“International aid missions”-962 hits

“Celebrity weddings”-524,000 hits
“Celebrity causes”-59,700 hits

“Bridal registry”-1.1 million hits
“Voter registry”-26,600 hits

How about one more, just for giggles? “Crass consumerism”-16,500.
Make that 16,501.
