Some Blogs Shannon Likes


Without any ado, here are some blogs I like. 

Texts from Bennett.

This is basically just screenshots of this guy’s iPhone showing texts from his cousin, Bennett. Bennett is 17, has a girlfriend named Mercedes, and is (according to his cousin) “one of the most unintentionally funny and brilliant souls on the planet.”

This one is personal favorite of mine.

This blog claims to be entirely real, but I have to say that I find that more than a little suspicious. This blog is pretty famous now, which means that this Bennett character must be aware of it, meaning that his texts would undoubtedly become skewed by his mere knowledge that they could end up on the internet.

Also the fact that this kid can’t actually exist in real life. I just can’t believe that.

Listverse:

This one is less funny than it is interesting and educational. But no one should ever turn their nose up at interesting education. 

This blog is basically a collection of lists. Everyone loves a good list. They make for excellent internet literature because the reader can scroll through easily to find the important stuff. (surfers of the internet don’t have time for lengthy reading, what with all the lolcats to see.) Some examples of the lists on listverse are: 10 Catalysts for World War ThreeTop 10 Fascinating Wine Facts, and 10 Things You Probably Didn't Know About the Amish.

Listverse breaks the lists up into categories, so you can easily search through subjects that you like, or search things that aren't really your cup of tea and maybe gain a new interest! So go out there and learn something! HOORAY!!

And on a decidedly less educational note:

What the Auto-fill!?!

You know when you type a search into google, and it tries to finish your thought for you? You know how sometimes google can be ridiculously wrong? That is what this blog has captured. It consists of screenshots of google searches, in which the search suggestions are hilarious, offensive, or downright bizarre.

Par example:


So that's all for now. Stay tuned.
