Lazyblog
I’ve noticed that since Tumblr I’m far more inclined to reblog someone’s witty picture or funny video than I am to create my own content. Has reblogging made me lazy?

Client: “I’ve received this other quote and you’re 5 times as expensive as they are.”
Me: “Really? Who quoted it for you?”
Client: “Firm X”
