I am currently entangled in the emotional throes of a
love/hate relationship. This one is a budding one; I am not about to delve into
my other similar relationship with running. That was on the cover of the Marisa
tabloids AGES ago. No, no- the latest celebrity news reports are swarming like
cluster flies (Phish reference) over my relationship with the website BuzzFeed.
I devote hours, literally, just staring glaze-eyed at the website, my mind
absorbing hilarious photos of cats and sloths thus triggering my laughter response
when I am sitting in a quiet office. Whoops. But we can all concede the
attractive and alluring nature of my new love.
Yes, I LOVE BuzzFeed. The hate
portion of my divided feelings directed at the website stems from the HOURS
upon HOURS it sucks away from my life. Yet, I am still unconvinced that looking
at cats and sloths and learning who my celebrity family would be and the degree to which I fear clowns is actually a bad way to spend my time.
I do believe I have just reasoned myself into removing hate
as an emotion that I associate with BuzzFeed. No, I will not pursue our
burgeoning love in the shadows. Without my dear new BF, who would have told me
that paper toilet seat covers are also face oil removers? Who would have told
me you can put nail polish on a mosquito bite to kill the itch? And more
importantly, who would have shown me the 21 pictures of Ed Sheeran being unbearably adorable?? They even have an article combining the two best categories on its site: cats and Ed Sheeran. Combine Ed and sloths and they would truly be unstoppable.
Writing this blog proved challenging, because, guess what? BuzzFeed was distracting me from writing about BuzzFeed. Sorry guys, I gotta get back to reading the 24 important life lessons from D.J. Tanner from Full House...
