No Joke

In Blogger, there's a link up in the in-browser menu bar called "next blog" that takes you to a random blogger page. I just started clicking it, and for five consecutive clicks, it took me to blogs about people's babies or kids. It probably would have gone on longer had I not closed the browser tab.
Please let me not be a parent who documents my child to the internet. I mean, it's wonderful to include photos/anecdotes about your kids because you love them or whatever. But to have a blog devoted only to your three month old baby? Cummon now.


P.S. I hate the word "blog." I do not hate the word "cartography." Henceforth, I will refer to blogs as "cartographies." The science or practice of drawing maps, however, will retain its original title. So "blog" no longer means anything, and can just fade from the collective vernacular. The end.
