Incredibly accurate. I've never been happy to see a Pinterest result since the moment it appeared. I don't know why it is used at all.
Fuck pinterest.
There is the UnPinterested! extension for Chrome. I think it still works.
I installed a chrome extension that removes all mentions of that shithole from my search results. Highly recommend!
Screen grab if you can. GIMP of there's water marks. I mean if you really really want the pic.
I always shamelessly screenshot it right off the Google image results page and crop it down.
This is the way.
When searching for inspiration painting Warhammer I always use -pinterest.com because of how enraged I am any time I realise the image is hosted there.
One time I went on Pinterest to download an image of a praying mantis. I eneded up downloading a zip file of 37 praying mantis images. This is my only Pinterest success story. Sorry if this is controversial.
I hate Pinterest links. I don't even click if it looks like Pinterest. Might as well not exist.
Is this an old meme? Have never seen it before.
I am a reasonably tech savvy person. I like working out how things work. When I install a new app or software, the first thing I do is go look at the settings to see what it can do, what I can customise etc.
I don't know how long Pinterest has existed but I have no fucking clue how it works. Everytime I've spent more than a few minutes there, I just end up getting infuriated and leave. I genuinely have no idea what it is for.
Is it just a digital mood board for American white conservative women? Does it have another purpose???
Papanomally be getting that babaganush real good xD
