AltaVista reveals the following word count on the Web:
beep: 625,434 beeep: 12,191 beeeep: 2,962 beeeeep: 1,264 beeeeeep: 931 beeeeeeep: 453 beeeeeeeep: 866 beeeeeeeeep: 273 beeeeeeeeeep: 562 beeeeeeeeeeep: 131
What I found most intriguing is the surprisingly low count for beeeeeeeeep (9 E’s). I can’t imagine why this is the case.
So I repeated the search with variants of the word “bleep” and got these results:
bleep: 51,388 bleeep: 328 bleeeep: 170 bleeeeep: 95 bleeeeeep: 48 bleeeeeeep: 36 bleeeeeeeep: 19 bleeeeeeeeep: 33 bleeeeeeeeeep: 14 bleeeeeeeeeeep: 7
Look at that — there’s a SPIKE at the 9 E variant!!!
What could possibly account for this?
