Editor's note: I should clarify: This is NOT my content. This is an excerpt from a tumblr started by someone else. My sense is that the "f---" is an insult in some cases, and sort of a jealous comment in others, and in both cases is the personal opinion of the person behind the site. While I can see it being problematic to use actual people's photos (just not nice), at the same time it seems like a tongue in cheek way to express a feeling towards trends. But I'm curious what you all think!
Have you seen this tumblr?
An example:
Fuck your thing that says EAT in your kitchen
Fuck your ornamental vintage typewriter
As readers (and writers) or design blogs, I ask you: offended? Or amused?
I'm amused. Here, I'll add on of my own.
Fuck your bunting.
There. that kind of felt good.
There are definitely trends I don't get out there, and I don't always feel at ease mentioning them. This tumblr--so simple--is a brilliant way to take them on.
Is there a big trend out there that makes your eyes roll?
Do tell.
It's amusing, except I could never uses someone's photo to do it - it's like singling out one person from the crowd and telling them how awful their outfit is. Some things are truly overdone, but in that case I skip them and move on to promoting the more original bits.
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid the "Put a Bird on It" movement has ruined birds for me forever. I'll find a cool fabric that I love, realize it has a bird on it, and just like that I'm out of love.
ReplyDelete"Fuck" an Eames chair - I mean come on! I wish I had enough money and taste that I could scoff an Eames anything!! I will say I don't like words bossing me around in my house and I am a little tired of the alphabet especially in rooms for people who already know it but who doesn't like to play god with a terrarium and that butterfly stool is elegant and Heather, bunting is so cheerful for celebrations.
ReplyDeleteNot everyone can keep their house 10 seconds ahead of the trends. I feel like I am living in the Ikea catalog page 9 and that is on a good day when I am not feeling like a Hoarders episode. I'm definitely fucked :)

So, I'm new here. is the FU a good thing or a bad thing? Does that mean you want it? I am not offended because those are not my pictures.
ReplyDeleteAnd now for a relevant comment...
ReplyDeleteI hate, I mean really hate, crap with words on it. Signs that say anything in French or just "Paris" hung in someone's house are ridiculous.
Omg, I am dying laughing right now. I have no idea whether that is supposed to be a comment or a real FU. I haven't seen this until now.
ReplyDeleteLol to Kerry's comments.....I think it's kind of funny in a way.
