The Art of Blogging

Invariably blogging is like talking out loud, to people. I came to this conclusion today while i was reading John Scalzi's, oh so random blog titled The Terror of Bad Chocolate, and from that came the thought that there is no real way to blog. Take John Scalzi for example, one of the most well known and beloved bloggers of the century and he writes a blog about fake chocolate and how it's somewhat like bad sex only worse. By and by, a perfect example of how a blogger can write about nothing and call it the blog of the century. Woop dee doo, Scalzi managed to stealthily talk about his sex life juxtaposed to fake chocolate.

Then there are the idiot bloggers.. I honestly don't even know why they blog because everything they say is just so dang idiotic. But yet i find myself reading their blogs... sort of mesmerized by their complete lack of intellect. It kind of reminds me of high school in a way..

 But by far one of my favorite things about bloggers is sarcasm. It comes off as a little pessimistic but it makes a topic ten times more funny. It sort of draws you in and you just can't stop reading no matter how hard you try.

And of course you have those bloggers that go on and on and on... and by the time you read half of their blog your eyes are crossed and your brain is falling out of your skull. A good way to avoid this unfortunate occurrence, is if you go to their blog and one post is the whole length of the screen in tiny font... I say run. Or brave it, but you were warned.

Yes, it's true, blogs are like mystery prizes, you just never know what you will get..

In fact life is a little like mystery prizes. Maybe the reason why we all like reading blogs is because we find human connection in a blog. We realize that whatever we're going through, our joys, fears, and pain is not all done alone. That we stand together in this world, even though it feels like we're completely alone. So you see my friends, there is no real way to bog, and that is the true art of blogging.
