A simple and addictive blogging medium used by people of varying ages to share content, mostly text and photos. Unlike sites such as LiveJournal, YouTube, WordPress or Facebook, Tumblr is completely uncensored with very little moderation, enabling its users to post virtually anything they have, whether it be violent, pornographic, copyrighted, or unintelligent.
Tumblr consists of over 300 million blogs, all of which can be categorized under several different styles, most commonly fashion, fandom, photography, art, humour and personality.
Although anyone can join Tumblr, its user base is probably made up mostly of people aged between 14-25, making life in high school and university a common topic among its users.
Users with large bodies of followers on the site may feel inclined to create custom URLs that don't contain the Tumblr brand, and turn their blogs into cash generating assets with the help of Google Adsense. Under the same circumstances, some bloggers may find that they can't handle the pressure of a large following, and deactivate their accounts as a result.
In 2012, Tumblr was purchased by Yahoo! but the site did not undergo any major changes as a result of this.

Get the Tumblrmug. A region of the internet where self-loathing, sexually frustrated beings gravitate in order to vent themselves through pictures and porn in order to receive pity disguised as a "reblog" button. Most inhabitants displaying sexual frustration are Filipino and Vietnamese, probably due to ancestral tracts.
"Bro, I'm on Tumblr forever." " Dude, how much porn?!"
He was nonchalantly on Tumblr, however that in itself is a logical fallacy due to the attention nazism of the site itself.

Get the Tumblrmug. Tumblr used to be a place were teenagers would come to escape reality,express they're feelings with out being judged and could live in originality.
Now days Tumblr is full of fucking indie wannabes who wear fucking beanies,nikes,tie dye tops and claim to listen to Mumford and sons.
Although these fucking idiots claim they have swag and are original they're so fucking stupid that they don't even realise that every other wannabe fucker is dressed in the same ridiculous costume as them which defeats the whole object of being original.
They're so fucking overly stupid that they believe that things like fake lip piercings and Nutella will make them more Indie.
Nigga please sit the fuck down and return Tumblr to its original users. And do not under any circumstances use your real name in your URL you absolute twats.

Get the Tumblrmug. The most immoral, arrogant, self-conceited websites ever created. This website is used by people who feel the need to be important or stand out of society, often bringing people who have Special Snowflake Syndrome.
