Question

What is the meaning of this phrase, "pues si me sorprendio bastante porque no creo que buscandolas en internet las encontro, de hecho ni yo tenia esas fotos, y bueno solamente si me sorprendio mucho!" Do the speaker was angry or not?

Answer 1

No I don't think the writer was angry, just gob-smacked by the power of the web.

Translated, I get:

"Well I was pretty surprized because I really didn't think that looking for them on the internet would find them. I didn't even have the photos and well, yes, I was really surprized."

I'm assuming that what was being looked for was the photos which seems to make sense although more context would make it easier to understand.

Answer 2

Surprised more like it! Sorprendio means surprised. No anger in this.
