A blog is for Me.
Oui? Yes.
People read my blog no? Yes, they do.
Who reads my blog? My friends, my sister, people who don't know me.
Why do people read others' blogs? Millions of reasons. The main reason is they like to snoop. They like to be in the Subject position whereby the blog and thus the author of the blog are both Objects. We humans have an obscure/bizarre/perverted WANT to read a "diary"--even though it'll piss us off.
"Don't like what I write, don't read,
loh!"? An alternative--but absolute bullshit. It's convenient shirking of responsibility.
What responsibility? Author-responsibility-to-readers?
My blog is for ME, no? Yes.
Cyclical argument is Crap,
Capice?
Where does that leave bloggers and readers?
Take into account [readers] whilst blogging?
But. A Blog is for ME NO?
