(rais-izsh-ual) adjective
Used to describe the overwhelming amount of people of Caucasian descent found whenever one searches for images on Google images.
Nearly every phrase or combination of words typed into a Google image search - unless the entered phrase contains ethnic-specific phrases like "mariachi," "sushi chef," and "Jay-Z" - it will bring up about 99.9% Caucasians. The .1% difference usually contains an image of a famous black person who has absolutely nothing at all to do with the keywords entered into the Google search.
Image: an image of Scatman Crothers, the actor best known for his roles in The Shining and One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, was found when a Google image search for "religious/epistemological theories in 16th century China."
