Buzzfeed or should I say Baefeed?


Hello, my little ones, it's Moi again



SO....

I was scrolling through BuzzFeed, the King Pioneer of anything ever important. Literally, BuzzFeed is bae, from their videos on youtube to their app. If you ever want to procrastinate just download the buzzfeed app, you will not be sorry. 

I mean lezberealz, BuzzFeed platform is pretty cool. This is what BuzzFeed says about themsleves:



BuzzFeed is a cross-platform, global network for news and entertainment that generates six billion views each month. BuzzFeed creates and distributes content for a global audience and utilizes proprietary technology to continuously test, learn and optimize.

In normal people words, they think they're pretty awesome, and I agree. 

So, on The Magnificant BuzzFeed, I came across this article and automatically book marked it because HELLO THIS IS MY EVERDAY LIFE. The article is called:

21 Pictures That Are 100% You On The Internet


Not gonna lie, this is pretty relatable, at least to me. 

I don't know if your use to the whole BuzzFeed platform, but from my own experience it goes a little something like this. You're either a BuzzFeed staff, meaning you work for BuzzFeed (#GOALS), or you are a community contributor who uses BuzzFeed, to publish their work. There are  all these different categories and with BuzzFeed, you can literally talk about anything from world problems to Disney Princesses without Make-up and find your people. BuzzFeed is like us, one big collection of many random things, most specifically written in blogging style although there are some serious news ones... I wouldn't know though because reading about the outside world makes me want to go a little something like this... --> 




For the article I am talking about, it was written by Jamie Jones, BuzzFeed staff and posted on April 6th, 2016 at 3:44 am.



To summarize the article, its 21 things either in gifs, short videos, screen captions or photos that are extremely relatable to anyone, who like me is prominent on the internet. My personal favourite was number 2, because as soon as my mom added my on snapchat, I sent her a series of very similar snapchats like that, then suddenly I blocked her, and every time she asks me about it, I change the topic. ;) 



Yet, in reality if you look at this post. The purpose may be 100% comedic and just to relate with someone. Although, when I look at it in a lens where I don't focus on the comedy aspect and look at it as how you would typically imagine parents to look at this, there are actually some dangerous aspects. 

For one thing, #1 could actually be dangerous, sharing too much on the internet can result into serious and dangerous situations including death as we have seen many times. BOY DO  I SOUND LIKE A MOM RN.

On the other hand #4 happens to the best of us. One second we are studying for a biology test and looking at Crash Course Photosynthesis and the next we have enterered the weird areas of youtube and we are watching ear wax extractions. I don't even know...


So although, a lot of times, posts about the internet are found, and one would assume that they are mainly for internet purposes, in reality, some things should be analysed. The internet could be an addiction. How many of us are really capable of turning off our house internet for 24 hours, let alone a week. Nearly impossible for the most of us, I bet.

This specific BuzzFeed article may be a blogging/list style compilation of many aspects of you on the internet, less of us children because hello IB, we have no social life. However, in reality, although this may be a joke. To me, it's an eye opener. Somethings can be dangerous on here and others funny, but I personally need to watch my internet usage and what I post. Not everyone needs to know everything about me...

I have officially become a mom. (not saying anything is wrong with moms)













What do you all think? Can you #relate.


Bow down to your Queen.

Peace out Little ones.
