Remove auto-complete field entries in Google Chrome
Ok... so this is embarrassing.
I typed in "boobs" on EncyclopediaDramatica's search because, well, it's a really funny page.
But now I've got a problem... EVERY TIME I click a search feild in Chrome now, it shows "boobs" as the first suggestion in the drop down!
This is not really socially acceptable as this laptop goes with me everywhere and Chrome is my primary browser.
Is there a way I can isolate and remove just that one entry?

1On my macbook fn+shift+delete does the job of removing a single entry from the drop down. – Dirk Schumacher – 2017-04-30T19:48:28.393

177Kayle, I bet when you wrote this you didnt think you would show up as the first result when googling "chrome delete autocomplete". Congratulations on forever being the boob autocomplete guy! – Jeff – 2013-03-05T15:23:05.430
22@Jeff This brought me to tears. You can delete auto-complete but you can never stop being the boob auto-complete guy. – George Reith – 2014-04-05T12:08:01.283
8Hah! I really don't mind. I meant to be humorous when I pushed this. I had no idea it would become such a popular question though! – Garrett – 2014-04-05T17:38:01.397
