• Fuzzy Animal Friday

  One of the things I always have trouble with is finding featured content that is

  • interesting
  • original content
  • appealing to the masses
  • appropriate for everyone

  This is harder than you’d think.

  I usually end up picking out photos and videos that feature fuzzy animals because they tend to fit the above four caveats. Other good standbys are sunsets, clouds, vacation spots . . . you get the idea. Every once in a while, you’ll find hilaaaaarious things like the Fleet of Segways that’s up today, but for the most part, it’s a lot of scouring for specific content.

  I’d asked for three random words yesterday, and Matt recommended fluctuation, lawsuit and donut. Fluctuation brought up issues of weight/water from the ana girls; lawsuit was a bunch of articles from Reuters and donuts came back to thinspo/”omfg i ate four peas today” but also yielded some delicious looking photos that made my mouth water.

  So today I was searching for a video and found one of an adorable dog who serves as a living puppet to someone off-camera. Said dog is dancing and parroting noises . . . and elicited an “awwwwwwwww” from Eugy, which I took as instant approval.

  I hereby elect today and any future Fridays Fuzzy Animal Friday. Anything that makes me go, “PUPPY!” is excellent.

  Bring ‘em on.
