Having been accused of being a bit repetitive I am going to delve into the world of the blog in an attempt to identify what is samey about a blog in an attempt to eliminate all sameyness. This is a very common template... Hello blah blog blog blah blog blah blah... blah blah words words and Justin Bieber.
Some Words!
So this is what the layman might call the introduction an insight into what the piece is going to be about accompanied by a picture of the subject of the article in question... next up comes some form of development of the idea. More words blah blah blah blog blog blog, about a paragraph in all which develops the idea further, followed by an amusing little epiphet about he might look if he was a fat lad.
another picture further developing the idea with several exclamation marks at the end!!!
From here I would normally veer off topic with an idea comparing Bieber with something to do with muslims. Garble garble nonsense, blog blah blah, blah blah would be good if he was a suicide bomber so he might die.
From here i stay on the topic I used as a tangent, thus subtly using the initial subject to ease in the reader.
Blahdyblah blah, revolution in the middle east, earthquakes in Japan, crude joke cruelly mocking victims of upheaval before inserting another picture.
Cutesy image to take the edge off the unthinkable thing I said in the previous paragraph.
From here I generally struggle to make the connection between subject A and subject B whilst attempting to maintain some information, or at the very least a sideways look at both subjects, and interlinking them with various degrees of success, saying something like "Justin Bieber is what all muslims would look like if we were on___________.
At this point I invite the reader to fill in the gap in an attempt to draw them in to my way of thinking... I will of course try to steer the implied reader with some more pictures so I maintain authorship.
LSD for example. I finish up with a paragraph or two about how I might be wrong, explaining why I am probably wrong but explaining in such a way which proves my original point, whatever that point might be, thus leaving the reader slightly disorientated as to what my actual opinion is. The point itself has very little to do with what I actually think, it is the method which is the most important aspect of the piece. By revealing this method of working it makes it very difficult to work in this way in future, therefore, I will have to either change method or risk some kind of backlash from the implied reader, being rendered formulaic and therefore irrelevant.
A picture of Liam Gallagher.
Then again, as long as I keep them coming I'm sure the implied reader wouldn't mind as long as they have 5 minutes to kill and chance across a link. So Justin Bieber= Muslims. Just in case you were not sure what the point of all this is. I would say that this is an even more important equasion than Einsteins theory of relativity.
A loosely connected picture to do with the thing about relativity that I said before the picture, and the fact that he has similar hair to Justin Bieber, which brings my point to a close.
