Google Auto-fill: a window into our relationships?

I had some fun with Google's auto-fill feature today and it made me realize that there may be a LOT of people out there in need of couples' counseling. What do you think?

Hit the jump for "my husband" and "my wife."

According to Auto-Fill, you can't own a Canadian, either. That's disappointing.

Just start typing "Why can't" and there it is.

I hope they don't make me return the Canadian I already own.
