Oh wait, that’s exactly what blogging is.

So what’s the purpose of this post? Clever satire, hopefully. There have been so many similes and metaphors comparing blogging to things like ninjas, flowers, and grapefruit - most of which aren’t effective - and they don’t seem to be stopping anytime soon. It looks like any ol’ blogger can just think of blogging as [adjective] [noun] and then write a post about it like some twisted game of Mad Libs.

Of course, people seem to like that kind of stuff. I will say that I have been entertained by comparison posts, especially ones that don’t make any sense. Well, I suppose blogging is kind of like being a midget juggling unicyclist hobo in that… uh… well, if you carry the two and divide by zero…

Ah hell, there’s no way those two are even remotely alike. I’d like to see someone take up that metaphor!

    Yah, your title is breaking the layout, but you have always been anti-establishment when it comes to blogging, so you might as well keep it like that, and stick it to the man!

    haha , that gave me quite a good laugh … perhaps in their mind the metaphor makes sense:P but in general metaphors are those tricky little literary devices that sometimes confuse the hell out of those who are more “logic” brained :P
