Precious? Please.
Someone I met recently expressed a strong preference for serious, thoughtful blogs. He scoffed at blogs by navel-gazers who believe their every stray thought is worthy of worldwide dissemination. These are the sort of people, he continued, who post pictures of their pets -- as if they expect the rest of us to coo over some lazy, overfed furball.
I scoffed right along with him. Because who wants to see such pictures? I mean, who cares if your two cats are sleeping on the dog's bed while the dog is sleeping on the hard floor next to the bed looking sad and displaced? That's not interesting to anyone but you. Besides, are you really waiting around for your cat or dog to do something "cute" so you can take its picture? Can't you find a better use for your time? Don't you have anything worthwhile to contribute? There's only one word for you people: pathetic.
