Still not getting it, lemme put it this way - Pintrest is an online pin board of all your interests. Get it? Pintrest. Clever. You create virtual boards of things that interest you, like Food, Clothing, Crafts to Try, etc. They you can browse what other people have pinned (like an internet favorites link with a pic) and save them to your board. It's like your internet favorites favorites bar but now you have a visual reminder to go with it... and you get to see what all your friends are pinning (think of the facebook news feed.)
*Sad news: not everything on Pintrest is as good as it sounds.
I am sorry I had to be the one to tell you this, but it's true. Sometimes, people are fools and pin things that are:
a)gross tasting
b)not worth your time to attempt
c)completely false
d)all of the above
How is a girl to know?! Sometimes I think "That dish looks delish, and look, that pinner liked it... so it must be good." Then I spend all my precious time and energy and money trying to follow the directions (sometimes excellent, sometimes iffy) to create said dish... only to find out that said dish is inedible. At which point I have to make my family choke it down and/or default to making bean burritos, again. Seriously, is there no help for us honest and trusting pinners?
Not to worry, illistyle to the rescue - the "Fail." Board is here. I got so tired of pinning something, then trying it, only to find out that it was a horrible waste, that I, along with some other amazing women, have been adding these fails to a board in order that no unsuspecting pinner will ever have to eat another nasty meal/try that craft that ends up hideous/feel like a failure because someone pinned a lie.
