6 things off-limits to Tumblrs

I’m not picking on anybody here, promise. Some of this stuff annoys me and some of it doesn’t. Just observing.


1. Helvetica
DanSaid:

The most irritating posts on Tumblr are the ones that mention Helvetica. Like, am I supposed to be impressed that you know it is a font and be awed by your sophistication and good taste?


2. Stupid, inconsequential, uninteresting bullshit
Fuckery:

It’s just that some of you are a bit narcissistic and it’s boring the fuck out of me. Honestly some of you are the reason people hate bloggers and it’s because you think you’re more interesting than you really are, ok champ?


3. Anything found on 4chan
Vidar:

Stop posting that shit altogether.


4. Atheists who are constantly talking about atheism
dalasverdugo:

Atheists who are constantly talking about atheism are no less annoying that religious people constantly talking about religion, in my opinion. If you are secure in your beliefs, then why do you have to constantly be like “See? See? I’m so right!”? It’s like a dude talking about how much pussy he gets to prove he’s not gay.


5. Making lame Tumblr sites
Anonymous:

Stop making lame sites. You’re not gonna be Calacanis. Your shitty sites aren’t suddenly going to make you money and no one cares. NO ONE CARES.


6. Posting photos of yourself
Name withheld:

Why must 1/3 of your tumblr posts feature your face? Are you that self involved that you are unaware that THAT is really the most unattractive, ie douche-bag quality, feature of web life 2.0? You diminish the value of your own stock. Perhaps that will go down as your poetic flaw…


Surely I’ve missed a few hundred things. What else are big no-nos?
