A toilet: You got it, we’re all full of sh!t most of the time aren’t we?
An apple: You know that saying “an apple a day…”? Well one of the critical rules to blogging is consistency and writing a post or 3 posts per day can be a key to return and future readers.
A Diet Pepsi Max: It’s a fairly new profession that runs at all hours of the day and gives you that “invigorating” feeling every time you post or have a big hit.
A Samsung Juke: A blogger tends to stay up on hip/new/cute technology.
A Uni-ball Signo Pen: Quality rather than quantity is the better method in most cases.
A set of keys: A blogging career can open doors to many things and the time is now to look for them.
A Nalgene bottle: Indestructible? Not quite, but a blogger should be able to fend off nasty comments or worthless spam.
A Kleenex: A blog is a great place to blow all of the junk out of your head and display it.
An id badge: A blog is like a blogger’s online identity. It can grant you access to things not available to everyone else.
A pair of Diesel jeans: Many bloggers come off as elitist and they definitely use blogging as a way to show off.
A cubicle: Sometimes we all find ourselves trapped in a little world. Opening our minds and channels once in a while could produce great benefits.
A piece of Orbit gum: The new version of a blogger is clean, neat and refreshing. The days of the kid in “Mom’s basement” are over.
An Emergen-C: We may not fix all the problems in the world, but we definitely think we can.
A flash drive: “On the go” doesn’t do a blogger justice, but the times of working from wherever you are in the world are here.
A Sharpie: A blogger’s mark on the internet is essentially permanent. Now that your work is out there, expect it to be there for a long, long time.
A garbage can: Some times we’ve got more garbage on our blog than actually quality work. Something I think we all need to work on.
A sticky note: Like taking a note and posting it on a bulletin board, only “internet sized.”
A Ford Focus: Starting a blog can be fairly cheap with low maintenance costs, but many out there lack overall long term quality.
An LCD TV: We’ve spent all this time and money and think we are the next big thing, but on the same tolken we’re a little scared of what could replace us sooner than later.
A yellow notepad: We’re not your standard pad or website but we’re also not re-inventing the wheel here.
A conference phone: At any time you could be working 3 articles, responding to 15 comments, and digging/hyping/reddit-ing 20 favorites.
A binder: It’s very easy to maneuver and allows us to easily remove or add material to it.
A rubber band: A blogger’s post can bend just about anyway depending on his/her feeling that day. Sort of like this post. J
A piece of Glad Tupperware: Blogs are used to store information, but they are a much nicer, disposable version that other websites.
A pair of Converse All-stars: Because we all want our blog to be customized to our own style or color scheme.

(Web Design and Development) A hollywood actor: Every blogger thinks they hame some great unique talent and will be recognized and make money from amongst the 200 million other competeing blogs. But in the end, we all still work day jobs.

(Blue Workhorse) TNT's NBA in-studio crew (Charles, Kenny, Magic & Ernie): Three people that are full of nonsense who are occasionally funny to one person with any actual information.
Wondering where all these random thoughts came from? I simply looked around at my desk, surroundings and self and spit it out onto a blog. The possibilities are truly endless with this idea. Give me some of yours! Write your idea down in a comment with your backlink and I'll add it the list, linking you!

I love it. Going to start an "added" section to the end for those that have commented with one.

Very clever post! I don't have one to add...yet! I'll have to think of one and come back...
Come back when you can and then we'll add you to it!
It looks like some of the elitist digg losers voted this as spam...what do they call all that technology garbage that they keep duplicating over and over?
Too bad...this was up t 77 and was maybe going to get a ton of participation had it made the front page. But, the guys that have dedicated their life to patrolling Digg have buried it enough that it will never go anywhere.
Thanks elitist toolboxes!
Digg users are like...
-Barack Obama
that sucks I thought it was a fine bit of work.
Yeah and is not spam at all. The Digg elitist party is completely obnoxious...like baseball purists.

That's a neat collection! Thank you for a good laugh! :-)
