5 Things I'm Sick of Seeing in Blogs

5. Slo-Mo videos.
Whether it's a gun going off, fruit being smashed, a slap in the face, or a water balloon being dropped, it's not that interesting anymore.






4. LOL Cats.
Granted, posting seems to have dropped off a lot lately, but it still pops up every now and then. I thought it was silly from the start, but the way it took off was inexplicable to me.



3. Creatively designed bookshelves.
They're great and all, but there seems to be a glut of really mediocre output. I don't get it.




2. Knitted creations.
Maybe this list is more indicative of the blogs I read, but I have seen more knitting photos than any man should. Some are admittedly cool, but really, I didn't need to see a photo of a knitted bacon strip scarf. Speaking of....






1. BACON/MEAT
Now, I love bacon as much as the next guy...okay, I guess that 's apparently an untruthful statement given the context of this post, but...what's up with the plethora of meat and (more specifically) bacon related products proliferating my morning blog-reading? Seriously, bacon flavored lollipops, meat architecture, bacon bracelets, bacon wrapped meat stuffed bacon slabs? When does it all end???
