I often read more blogs than I actually post. I've noticed a few of my habits when it comes to reading them. Often I look at a blog for a few seconds and can tell if I'd be interested or not.

1. If it has music, I'll most likely hang around, if not for the blog then for the music. Like right now I have some preteen's blog open because even though the quality of her blog is low, she has "She's a Rebel" by Green Day on her page. (The quality of her blog is actually rather high, she has her own template and stuff, but the actual writing is WrItTeN lIkE tHiS aNd It AnNoYs ThE hEcK oUt Of Me. Not the mention the typos.)

By now I've probably heard, "She's a Rebel" about ten times. And I'm not planning on stopping anytime soon.

*cracks knukles all at once*

I've been practicing to do that for a long time. (I have no life, ok?)

What was I talking about? Oh yeah, blogs.

2. If it has poetry, I will totally stop and read it, but if it doesn't grab and interest me in the first five lines or so, I will probably just go to the next blog. First impressions are usually right and if their poetry isn't good now, it probably wasn't good before.

3. If a blog has pictures, I will stop and look at them, however, most of the time I'm not really into personal pictures, being that I don't know the person and all. I love artistic photography and stuff, but my friends are really good at that, so I'm not easily impressed.

4. I pretty much skip sports pages.

5. Being that I speak English, I'm not really into foreign pages. There was this one really good photography page that was like from Denmark or something and I was pretty much enthralled. Sometimes I try to translate Spanish blogs, being that I take Spanish as a language, but most of the time I just skip over those too.

6. I've noticed that I tend to read political and enviromental pages which is pretty cool now that I think about it.

7. I like reading personal pages because they often have stories that well, feel real. Sometimes it feels too real and rather boring, but if it's important to them, then awesome.

8. There are a lot of mother bloggers, which is pretty inspiring and cool. I read a few and look at the pictures of their children they put up, but most of the time I don't become too involved, because if I did I would be way overwelmed. (There are LOTS of mothers and an average of two kids per mom. I would be tracking at least fifty kids by now. And I'm sorry, but I'd like to have a life. At least, a pathetic one that consists of overly cracking my knukles. ^_^)

9. If people don't use basic English rules, I usually skip the blog. i hate it when poeple make easy to fix typos and just laeve them and its even wosre when they dont use proper puctuation most of teh time and end up using to many explanation marks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (That sentence is a sample of what gets on my nerves. It's hard to act like a moron...but I do it so well.)

10. If a blog uses a lot of profanity I usually will leave because in my opinion, overly cussing shows a lack of vocabulary. Instead of calling someone a f-tard, call them a moron, idiot, scalywag, loser, deliquent. (I guess all that proves is that I'm a good name-caller...) Instead of saying you feel like a piece of crap (which I've seen many people say), say that you feel like Apollo carrying the world. Or that you feel like a piece of gum that has been scraped on multiple people's shoes. It's not that hard to think these things up people, a simple fourteen year old can do it easily.

So yep, there is my list. Hope you enjoy.
