To hate Pinterest

It's not just the general tweeness of the place, it's the fact that it is like bindweed on the internet. I just type for pretty ideas in google, whose image search these days is just as good as Pinterest, and yet all the links take me to Pinterest, and unless I sign in, I'm not allowed to go to the website directly. No thankyou, I don't want your massive shitty app on my phone, nor do I want to sign in. I'd love to just scroll down the page and click a link thanks. Please? No? Ok, fuck off then, I'll think of how to craft a 4 foot triangular piece of wood into the face of santa all on my fucking own then. Aghhh!

Pinterest REALLY needs some competition! Didn't know the -pinterest.com tip and love it! Thanks liz70!

YANBU. And I say that as a user. It doesn't take you directly to websites, you just get caught up in it's annoying app. It's hard to find the source of things. I use it because it is a useful way to save images and recipes. But it is a PITA.
