It's a joke, not a recommendation engine or search engine.

An old joke at that: http://whatthefuckshouldimakefordinner.com/index.php

Ooh, profanity! Does that mean you're extra edgy?

If he's from California, no it's normal. Edit: apparently the consultancy is in the UK so it's "funny". http://www.coolography.co.uk/

ahh, got it. I don't object to profanity in general, maybe I just missed the joke.

The fuck do you think?

One side effect of creatives getting a lot more... casual... in their naming schemes: blocked by the corporate proxy.

^^ this. Most of the sites containing such words are classified by Websense as "tasteless".

As of 3:30pm EST, this had 0 Facebook likes, 178 tweets and 228 Google +1's. Personally, I take that as proof of Google's superior social network.

I would take it as evidence of an error in the Facebook count.

i'd say all of facebook's users are behind the office firewall that blocks urls like this.

This is probably the best chance I'll ever get to promote my own project, The Recipe Master: http://3e.org/soup/

Needs some polish, For instance, "Ingredient 1" Should go away when I start typing.

I'd say that is a pretty good start. But I think you need to expand your recipe index. I tried several different sets of ingredients and it just kept telling me to make soup.

if ingredients in recipe.ingredients:

suggest recipe

else:

suggest soup

I typed "semen", "goat cheese" and "monkey wrench" expecting a serious answer. Not disappointed.

I think you are automatically limiting your audience with the high level of profanity on the site. Don't get me wrong, I like the functionality it provides -- but find a better way to grab the audience's attention. Look to Zappos and some other companies for friendly, engaging copy.

Sometimes you just need to be told where to go and how to get there.

You're missing the fucking point.

What, no easter egg when I type in "Your Mom"? Come'on!

I typed in my zip code and the first result I got was one of the worst restaurants in the area. Not a good sign for a recommender engine.

Yeah. IHOP was the second option for me.

Some Fucking Points:

1. You should already know where the fuck I am, it's 2012.

2. Maybe you'd really fucking impress me if this was a mobile app. (You'd also know where the fuck I was)

3. Don't fucking send me to a place across town, what the fuck.

I find it a tad bit too minimalistic. Why not use a tagged based search, like "pizza in san antonio texas"?

And the domain name, is too long. People will misremember and mistype it as "wherethefucktoeat.com" or "wherethefuckshouldieat.com" or similiar.

My coworking space comes up on the drinking site.

So that's pretty accurate, actually.

This is one fucking funny recommendation engine.

I'm not really all that impressed. It needs to widen the search area to a few km and drop the profanity.

It's a joke.

You mean it's a fucking joke.

Agreed, but it performs a decent service.

I think this was inspired by the original: http://whatthefuckshouldimakefordinner.com/

edit: beaten to it!

My favorite: http://www.whatthefuckismysocialmediastrategy.com/

Huh. I half expected it to just say in big letters "PREPARE YER OWN FRAKKIN' FOOD." (Pronounce with a Scottish accent.) A shame it doesn't.

I typed in my zip code and got "Can't find shit there. Try somewhere else." Thanks, wtfsie!

wtfsie wouldn't be a bad domain name, actually.

How soon is 'coming soon' for the mobile app?

How the fuck should I know.

touche.
