Why I Am Not On Pinterest

by Alex Iwashyna

in The House, WTH

I have seen Pinterest show off very cool ideas, images and talents, which is why I will never learn or benefit from it. My photos suck, and my crafting, cooking and house-organizing abilities are even worse.

Doors Are For Cleaning

Hey, I could see the floor this time!

At least I didn’t light my kitchen on fire!

Um, gross?

I do make a mean poster though.

In vaguely related news, I finally put my “Normal is not as important as laughter” on a mug as requested:

What other posters did y’all want done? And as what? I think most of the anti-inspiration pictures are in this album. I haven’t uploaded many of my more serious ones probably because I don’t make them as often. Either way, let me know here in via email, and I will get on it.

Another reason we are kindred spirits! Except I am not on Pinterest because I already waste enough time online. And have a million things I want to do and need no more ways to distract myself from JUST DOING THEM.

Ooh, I should’ve made a poster about that, too, because that is definitely up there as a reason to not do Pinterest.

My house looks like that too. Maybe because I spend too much time on Pinterest.

Touché. Also wish I’d thought of that as an alternate title.

Can we actually purchase those mugs now?

Pinterest…I think it’s quickly becoming a place for people to market things. Pretty soon it will probably be like watching TV commercials, right?

Yup, just click on the picture or link and you can buy one on lots of different mugs. Anything else I should do?

Those are pancakes of AWESOMENESS. Did you serve them with a side of AWESOMESAUCE?

If only awesomesauce was filling, I could serve it daily. {high-five myself}

I love the “I blog like it’s still cool”!! Also the one about not turning the water on the cat. My husband would love that one.

I finally got the “I blog like it’s still cool” on a mug and tshirt. (http://www.zazzle.com/i_blog_like_its_still_cool_mug-168676387249852051)
Do you think your husband would like the cat on a mug? Or a poster?

Probably a mug over a poster :)

What a laugh – you could create an anti-Pinterest board. I’d subscribe.

Very tempting. Maybe that’s what latenough.com is?
