I frequently worry about what my browser history looks like, or even worse my recent Google searches. No, it’s not because I spend my time 'bating to PornLuversXXX (not a real site, I don’t think).

It’s because aside from some hard-to-explain Google searches, which include “dad Trojan bareskin commercial," (click here to feel uncomfortable!) and “photo of a woman’s six pack” I have this weird habit of doing in-depth searches on Google for serial killers and spiraling into a Wikipedia black hole of literal MURDER.

Most recently, I delved into the lives of Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy, and Jeffrey Dahmer, learning more about them then I probably know about my own coworkers. On top of that, tabloid murderers,--you know, the kind the Lifetime Channel makes into a shitty movie, like the Craigslist Killer, Casey “Tot Mom” Anthony and Foxy Knoxy-- will always be interesting to me.

Anyways, I'd like to think I do this because I feel like the more you know about psychopaths/ serial killers, the easier they are to detect, and thus avoid. That and the fact that I'm beefing up my resume to be a consultant in the writer's room of Criminal Minds.

Here's a particularly creepy red-flag from Bundy's pre-murder years, 100% lifted from Wikipedia:

In the fall of 1973 Bundy matriculated at UPS Law Schooland continued courting Brooks, who flew to Seattle several times to stay with him. They discussed marriage; at one point he introduced her to Davis as his fiancée.In January 1974, however, he abruptly broke off all contact; her phone calls and letters went unreturned. Finally reaching him by phone a month later, Brooks demanded to know why Bundy had unilaterally ended their relationship without explanation. In a flat, calm voice, he replied, "Stephanie, I have no idea what you mean ..." and hung up.

Honestly though, how much of a potential deal breaker is this? For future preparation how does one explain my interest in “casually learning everything about serial murderers” without sounding like one? Please advise.
