I tire of you, I do

Sometimes I tire of all the popular blogs, especially the Norwegian ones. "Here's what I eat", "here's how I look pretty", "this is what I do to keep my body in perfect shape". Jesus. It's always written in such a way that it makes me wonder if there's another accepted way to live your life. When someone has to tell you how to look good, how to dress, how to work out, it's like implying that the way you're currently doing it just isn't good enough.

A semester of language psychology fucks up how I approach texts, that's true. But in a way, I think a lot of the blogs out there manage to fuck things up quite well without a deep analysis of language, implied norms and ideologies.

Seriously people. Sometimes I tire of you.

    sadpanda: Åh, jeg vet. Jeg er åpen for at mennesker skal få kunne skrive om det de bryr seg om, jeg synes bare det er så synd at det som ser ut til å bli promotert mest, kanskje ikke er det sunneste å sitte å lese side opp og side ned om.
