In The Pinterest of Science
Tue Nov 15 2011


So there’s this website called ‘Pinterest’, I know I have mentioned it before... but.... don’t go there.

It’s full of images of things people find on the tubes and post there, you know they ‘pin’ things of ‘interest’.

Don’t go there.

I was browsing away on it yesterday and I must have wasted I mean spent an hour before I finally snapped out of it...

Don’t go there.

But if you do, you might see things like this....

Things that make you go...

Oh my....

That’s why it’s so dangerous. They suck you in with those kinds of photos but you also might have to look at less interesting stuff like this:

Don’t go there.

(You already said that.)

Especially don’t type in ‘Tiny Houses’ in the search box.

You could die of cute.

(You are indulging in hyperbole.)

You mean hi-per-bo-lee?

Well, it’s become a colloquialism. It’s not literal.

(Well, be careful with those fad phrases, someone could put an eye out.)

I suppose in YOUR world that might be a problem. But in MY world we have REAL problems.

Like Pinterest.

Don’t go there.

(Sigh.)

    I have always wondered what interests people now-a-days. I am daily amused but sometimes certain things are just crazy whn it comes to the internet - I am appalled at how far some people will go for a trip and laugh on someone else's expense and distruction. I guess now - today - I have learned it does not take a lot to amuse people anymore. I have my favorite sites and leave it at that. I enjoyed reading your thoughts. Thank you so much for sharing your world with me.

    Amazing the number of black holes with gravitational forces powerful enough to suck you in and trap you forever on the web. I'm afraid MSN Games does that to me.

    I too, have been sucked into the Pinterest universe where everyone is beautiful, has perfectly manicured lawns, and have time to do things like decorate their garbage cans. It's scared and pretty at the same time!
