The Most Googled ‘How To’ Questions of 2016 Will leave You In Splits!

If we made a list of all our favourite years, 2016 will surely not be on it. It is the year when our luck collectively decided to commit suicide. But when Google released their yearly review and we saw the questions that people like you and I asked, it didn’t seem that bad a year, after all. In fact, it feels like all we cared about was Pokemon. Presenting to you the top 10 questions asked to Google in the ‘How To’ category, and we promise that they are instantly going to make you feel better.

3. How To Play Powerball?

For this, I had to Google what Powerball is. Turns out it is that national jackpot game in the US, where a girl takes out a magic ball and, if you are lucky, you win millions.

5. How To Move To Canada?

Only if people would have taken question 2 seriously, this one wouldn’t make the list. Then again, Justin Trudeau, so it might as well have been much higher up on the list.
