When I type "string", it returns commercials for g-string models. I love it because it makes me realize I'm living in in a small bubble.

ha; this says more about your search history than you think :-)

I get results for Java, Molecular Biology, String Instrument repair shops & a video by Shawn Mendes - Strings.

I get balls of literal string. I must not live a very exciting life :(
Emperor's Stringettes?
Busted!
Try working with a library that prefixes all of its class definitions with T and defines its own string class. That was the day that I learned on a work computer that a TString may refer to a type of underwear and not just a library class.
A friend was seeking information about StripX, a product for stripping insulation from wires. I heard him say, "Note to self - do not type 'strip x' into Google in a family environment."
If you think that's something try googling c-strings (not at work)
I got all the search results I expected: handling of strings in C, and a tiny bit of C++ thrown in. What do you get?
Haha! People accidentally leaking their porn search habits always makes for great internet humour.

I, too, get C-lang strings for "c strings" (with or without quotes) and C++, Java, the STRING bio database for just "string" or "strings".

I assure you it doesn't line up with my porn search habits. It came up one day when searching and now it doesn't seem to come up (unless I click on image search), who knows how googles algorithm works?
It used to come up, now doesn't seem to unless I look in image search?

It's basically a highly impractical piece of women's (and maybe men?) underwear that's supposed to be "sexy" but is more WTF
