Generic - Tumblr Posts

Keepsakes

There's a weird pocket in the top right corner of my browser that houses a mishmash of various urls. It's called the "Other Bookmarks" folder, and despite its generic name, its contents are carefully chosen. If I deem it intelligent, hilarious, thoughtful, unique, or otherwise extraordinary, it receives the honor of being inside. (The only anomaly is the end, to which is appended the next video in whatever series I'm watching; this is hardly an exception, however, as I wouldn't be watching it if it weren't somewhat entertaining.)

Okay, so perhaps I made it sound better than it really is. But I thought to myself: Why do I do this? To reread them later? No, because I almost never do that with anything. To show them to other people? I rarely get the chance to do so. So why not post them?

Here are its current contents. Be warned that some of these may be disagreeable, distracting, or NSFW.

Title (optional)

A single sentence “hook” with the topic clearly stated.

A paragraph of background info. Life history, explanations, a list in series separated by commas - with liberal use of hyphens and semicolons. Occasional five-dollar vernacular, followed by “ain’t” or “y’all.”

Sudden forward-shift to today. Application of this topic; why it applies to me. More fancy punctuation and self-reflection. Emphasis on key points. A single tyop edited several hours, maybe days later.

The main point, on a line by itself.

Mini-rant about bad applications of the topic. Edge cases and exceptions. (Exceptions to the exception.) Subordinating conjunction, observation about the topic. A generalized claim.

Concluding sentence (sometimes a joke).

That’s it. That’s all. Everyone can go write interesting posts now.

Fun fact for the day:

Multiple companies may make the same generic drug. But each make theres in slightly different ways, forms of release or different filler materials. If changing, this may lead to changes (usually minor to imperceptible) in side effects.
