What is "ar.inspiredpencil.com"? (aussie.zone)

Often when I’m doing an internet search, I get a list of results from “ar.inspiredpencil.com”. When I click on them, they’re in Arabic, which I don’t speak or read. Is anyone else seeing this? Is this some kind of search engine spam? Is it just me? I don’t understand why this is happening.

I have a sinus infection and there is so much snot! Where does it all come from? (aussie.zone)

EDIT: for clarification: There is only so much space between the front of my head and my brain. How does so much snot fit in there? Is it generated continuously so that there is always more available? Does it come from the lungs, and if so, what is the process of transport to my nose?
