Iconic Stupidity
FAQ 1: What is a New Blog?
Saturday, September 19, 2009

A new blog is a fresh blog, hot off the press blogosphere for you to enjoy... sorta. Generally these blogs have at most one post, and generally the post will look something like this:

"Hi. My name's (insert name here), I am (insert age here) and I created this blog for the purpose of (insert purpose here.)"

And generally absolutely no-one reading it will care.

Iconic Stupidity is my new blog (I'm going to skip the hellos and the yadda yadda junk) and it will hopefully poke fun at absolutely everything there is to poke fun at. My aim is to make you laugh, without the aid of those black-background pictures you see an awful lot of nowadays.

So, back to the whole definition of "New Blog". There are many types of new blogs, which hopefully I'll have time to explore later but they normally fall into 4 categories:

1. What-I-ate-for-supper blog. 'Nuff said on this point.
2. A niche blog (catered towards stockbrokers, 13-year-old-twilight lovers, fashion, etc.)
3. Review blog. A lot of the time these blogs can actually be interesting, however 40% of the time the blog with morph into a Groan blog, which is no fun.
4. Groan blog. Sometimes these masquerade as a Review blog, but they're not, they're just people complaining about everything they can possibly complain about without being murdered/sued/stoned.

This blog is sort of a mix of all 4. I'll mix personal experience, review things, and generally complain my head off about a variety of subjects that might interest niche groups.

Hurray.
