Search Not Working as Expected?
Search functionality is provided by tumblr. As far as we can tell, it operates as follows:
- Query is submitted to tumblr.
- This girl pokes around and takes some notes on her iPad.
- She suddenly realizes she never downloaded that Magnetic Fields bootleg from the last show at the Bowery, so she DMs this guy to see if he still like, has it.
- He totally doesn’t, and she’s totally bummed. She jots your search request down on a post-it and sticks it to her iPad (LoFi irony is so epic win) and decides to just get out of there for a while, ya know?
- Her roommate arrives home only to remember he hates having to live in this hovel. Whomever said Greenpoint was the new Williamsburg was seriously. fucking. confused.
- Roommate cracks a PBR and stares at the chewed up Palahniuk paperback he hasn’t quite got around to reading since he picked it up at the HomeWorks six months ago. Nah, today’s not the day. Maybe just check Cobrasnake one more time to see if he managed to photobomb that hot chick last night. Oh look, an iPad, just sitting there, screaming out to be touched.
- What’s this fucking sticky note on the iPad screen? “vulnerability disclosure?” Sounds like someone’s got daddy issues. <crumple> <toss> Nothing but net!
- Many hours later, girl returns, mostly baked and with a vague recollection of some tumblr search she was working on. Wasn’t there a post-it around here somewhere? “Vanity?” “Viscous?” “Verisimilitude?” Ah, fuck it.
- Search results are displayed.
