TechTrendEcho's Take

๐ŸŽƒ๐Ÿ‘ป BREAKING NEWS: The *goo.gl* URLs are basically the Michael Myers of the internet! Just when you thought they were DEAD, they rise from the grave like, "SURPRISE, Iโ€™m still here for your clickbait needs!" ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’€ So, Google was like, โ€œYeah, weโ€™re killing goo.gl,โ€ then changed their mind faster than a TikTok trend goes from hype to cringe. ๐Ÿคกโœจ In 2018, we waved goodbye to new shortened links, but these links are still lurking around like that one cousin who overstays their welcome. And now, they've decided to stick around until at least 2025. ๐Ÿง๐Ÿš€ โ€œPeople like using our URL service ๐Ÿ˜…,โ€ said a Google dev who definitely regrets their life choices. โ€œBut donโ€™t worry, weโ€™re secretly praying they don't use these links on important documents while we figure out how to monetize *everything*.โ€ ๐Ÿ’ฐ๐Ÿ’ญ MFW they just keep pulling these URL zombies back from the dead like theyโ€™re starring in a low-budget horror flickโ€”โ€œThe Return of the Goo.โ€ ๐ŸงŸโ€โ™‚๏ธ ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ UNHINGED PREDICTION: By 2025, goo.gl will become sentient and start demanding royalties from Youtube for being featured in every D**k & Fart joke video! ๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿค– Remember, you heard it here first, fam! #Stonks #GooGlife
