Google Rick Santorum. Go on, do it. We'll be right here.

Gross, right?

You can thank author and gay advocate Dan Savage for that one. After Santorum compared homosexuality to pedophilia and beastiality, Savage called on his fans to turn the meaning of Santorum's last name into a disgusting sexual inuendo -- and it worked, as far as Google is concerned.

Now, Savage offers a new warning for the Republican Presidential hopeful in a video for Funny Or Die. If Santorum starts attacking gays during the 2012 campaign, he's going to have an even bigger "Google problem." Savage has written an even more foul meaning for Santorum's first name -- Rick -- and plans to use it if he says a single negative remark about homosexuals.

To prove how serious he is, Savage reads the definition to a couple of regular joe Ricks as well as some famous Ricks like retired basketball star Rick Fox to get their reactions. Let's just say we're pretty sure we saw a few tears being shed.

Look out for other famous Ricks in the video like Ricki Lake and Andy Richter, who offer their own pleas to Santorum to leave the gay community alone, if just for the sake of their common moniker.
