Tumblr staff: ten options is enough for polls, right? No one needs more than that on a regular basis. The average tumblr user: Hey guys which element of the periodic table do you think is the most fuckable?
Posting hole
Lol
yeah yeah carbon nanotubes. but what about the copper nanotubes.
a) CuNTs definitely win
b) I have watched a fascinating transformation occur over the 3 years since @flamingwell & I joined Tumblr. We arrived plenty weird, with plenty of obscure interests & offbeat senses of humor & a love of learning. But that je ne sais qoa of Tumbler-ness was nurture built on the roots of nature. Slowly, our senses of humor and our idioms of choice drifted Tumblrward. More and more, the other members of our household would listen to entire conversations between us and ask, “what the hell did any of that mean?”
Evenings when we were all hanging out together, one of us would read aloud a Tumblr post. The other would crack up hysterically. The two non-Tumblerinas would watch us with the combination of wariness and pity one might feel for cult members. (They have, more than once, used the word “cult.” XD)
TL:DR we’re not “all just like this.” We cocreate this like-thisness in one another. And isn’t that glorious?
