I've been scrolling through blogs, just trying to get a feel for what's out there. Wow. There sure is a lot of mediocre crap in the world. Some of these blogs really shouldn't be available for public consumption. Fascinating as your baby/wedding shower undoubtedly is, I'm not certain a detailed play-by-play is something the world at large wants, needs, or cares about. Even more questionable are the blogs chock full of photos, personal details, and full names of the blogger's children. How much lead do you have to ingest before you start thinking it's a nifty idea to tell everyone with an internet connection that little Sally Smith in Gander, Newfoundland has swim practice every Thursday? Don't forget the colour pic of Sally in her bathing suit!
My personal favourite, though, are the blogs that blast you with cheesy music as soon as you open the page. What the fuck gave you the notion I want to be screeched at by Debbie "Call me Deborah" Gibson ever, let alone when I randomly click on someone's blog. Wouldn't you just love to be at a party hosted by these people? I can just picture them standing off to the side, grooving to the song stylings of Joan Osborne*, while their guests clutch at their bleeding ears. Yeah, um, thanks for foisting your musical "taste" on hapless strangers, but I'd like my blogs to be warble-free. Since that's not going to happen, I'm off to permanently mute the sound on my laptop.
*Feel free to replace with the name of any other awful, often perplexingly popular, singer/group from the multitudes infecting the world.
