If you were pretty online between 2013 and 2018, first of all, I’m sorry, second of all, you are most likely familiar with the somewhat hard-to-define sire called Tumblr. Part interactive blog, a repository for creative works, and a safe haven for fandoms, its influence can still be felt across various internet spaces to this day.
“The Worst of Tumblr” Facebook page actually goes above and beyond its name and shares hilarious and random posts as well. Below you will find a collection that should be entertaining and a bit unhinged, regardless of your taste, so remember to upvote your favorites as you scroll through and comment your thoughts below.

Part of the appeal of Tumblr was its key differences with other social media. Instead of focusing on the individual person, the focus revolved around fandoms, art, memes, and discussions. One’s personality plays a part in what one creates, but the anonymity did allow for more freeform content.
It’s not surprising that many artists, actors, and musicians all had Tumblr accounts at some point, before, during, and after fame. Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga, and even Ryan Reynolds have and perhaps still are allegedly Tumblr users. While one does not have to stay anonymous on Tumblr, it no doubt adds to the appeal.

While still quite popular, or at least recognizable, Tumblr is still a pretty niche platform compared to giants like Twitter or Facebook. While this might mean less revenue for its owners, the flip side is more focused content and a more consistent demographic. The vast majority of its users were teens and college students, with at least half of its active user base being younger than 25.
Unlike many other social networking sites, Tumblr users are surprisingly prolific, as many do make their own content. In 2019, there would be over 21 million posts made a day, despite only approximately 30 million active users at that time. Compared to Facebook or Instagram, where the majority of users almost never post anything, it’s still a vibrant community, if somewhat reduced over the last few years.

"How could you leave me? Every day there has been a very persistent burglar here looking for me. Luckily I am good at hiding."
This reduction in content and usage came about in 2018 when adult content was banned in an attempt to make the platform more marketable. This, predictably, backfired, as more adult-style content was quite popular. The anonymity and relative freedom of content originally made Tumblr a haven for people exploring their sexuality and researching others’ experiences.
#13
While many assume that the rapid reduction in usage following the adult content ban indicated that much of Tumblr content was not for children, statistically, only approximately 22% of its traffic was specifically for this sort of content. Many left the platform in protest, not so much because they needed it for adult content, but because they did not like the direction it was going.

You can’t. You take one day off every six months and pack in the dentist, doctor, post office, beauty salon, and taxidermist.

I always wondered about banks, people who need them have money, they get money by having a job, and the banks are closed when they aren't at work
madbakes 2 years ago
You'd be amazed how busy some banks are. People who are retired are there most frequently. Those who work manual labor jobs typically start work very early and end mid afternoon. Most people use some forms of electronic banking. Anyone else who needs to come in usually does on Saturdays.

Boomer here. When did doctors stop having Saturday appointments? It used to be that they took off on Wed. and worked til 3 on Sat. or was that just around me? When did many businesses stop having evening and weekend hrs? I have been a caregiver for almost 20 yrs. so my hrs are odd and I did not notice until recently.

I'm in my early 40s and have never as an adult had a doctor that was in office on Saturday. My pediatrician might have when I was a child, but that's it.

Twitter's character limit is the one to blame for stupid abbreviations. Sometimes you're short just a few characters so it becomes a habit to just shortcut where you can.

I asked my parents many times. Usually one started work sooner than the other. And they did some "chores" like shopping during lunchtime. But, yeah, it still does not seem enough.

My pharmacy of all places, is only open 9:00-5:30. Plus they are closed on they weekends. I am saved by the fact that I can refill on line and they have same day delivery.

My BFF from HS lives over an hour away (more if there is traffic-Houston). When my kids were little, she always came to my house to visit. She married later in life and had 1 kid. Now I try to go visit her when her schedule allows. And that's why we've been BFFs for 42 years and counting.

I'd match, date and marry her on the condition that our second child be named Optimus Prime. Ohhh, I live for the day when the kids argue and I'm on the phone so I can go "Yeah, Megatron and Optimus are at it again. Em honey, could you please take that fusion cannon away from Meg? You remember the energy surges the last time that happened, right? XP

I don’t know which season this is, but Mission Winnow, MW, first appeared around 2018, since then the fastest Pit Stop Award has been won by Red Bull. This award gives points at each race for the fastest times and there’s a league table of these. Red Bull are widely acknowledged as the fastest team in the pits, rarely are they troubled by Ferrari.

Many, many moons ago, we'd call the cops to our own parties, turn the music down and have pizza delivered around the same time to share a slice with them - any further calls they got after that they never worried about because they've already attended.

Mine moved back to my state, and bought a house with an upstairs hubby, youngest, roommate and I could live in. All so I could pay off medical bills from cancer. Just as we're almost done, hubby has a heart attack, then 10 months later a stroke. They've paid our bills for 8 months while waiting for retirement to kick in and never once complained. I hope I'm that good a parent !
