&lt;p&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;Clicking the question button on a post will double post your question to Yahoo answers.&lt;/strong&gt; Finally your semi private questions you ask your followers will be answered by people like LebronJeter23 and butterflyprincess4023, you know you can&amp;#8217;t wait to hear what they have to say. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;Tons of new users you will be forced to follow&lt;/strong&gt;. Up until today literally nobody knew about tumblr except you and the 200 Dr Who gif blogs you follow, but now that yahoo bought it, there are going to be billions of users, and you&amp;#8217;re going to be forced to follow ALL of them. No longer will you be able to avoid seeing people posting dumb shit on the internet all day. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;Julia Allison is back and everyone is forced to follow her&lt;/strong&gt;. Because Yahoo fucking hates you.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;The site is going to get all sorts of changes right away. &lt;/strong&gt;Everyone knows the best way to keep your user base happy is to change everything up like crazy so that people quit using your site.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;All of the porn will go away&lt;/strong&gt;. This sucks because there isn&amp;#8217;t anywhere else on the internet to get massive amounts of free pornography. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;There will be more ads.&lt;/strong&gt; This is really foolish, because everyone knows that every website that has offered a free service and then added advertisement has gone straight in the shitter. I wish twitter was still around, but they died once they started doing ads. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;In order to keep your tumblr you must get a tattoo of David Karp and Marissa Meyer making out&lt;/strong&gt;. I&amp;#8217;ve had mine for a while so it&amp;#8217;s no big deal, but the rest of you need to get on that shit. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;Who gives a shit. &lt;/strong&gt;Unless you own a stake in tumblr or yahoo, this isn&amp;#8217;t going to do shit to your life. &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://illustratedexample.tumblr.com/post/50906154518</link><guid>http://illustratedexample.tumblr.com/post/50906154518</guid><pubDate>Mon, 20 May 2013 07:46:00 -0600</pubDate><category>yahoo</category></item><item><title>Because duh.</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/e86e261a025d9b1594c8f8f762ca7ec3/tumblr_mn0kk6pHB71qzvtvio1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Because duh.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://illustratedexample.tumblr.com/post/50760355193</link><guid>http://illustratedexample.tumblr.com/post/50760355193</guid><pubDate>Sat, 18 May 2013 15:48:06 -0600</pubDate></item><item><title>adidasfootball:

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://muggleland.tumblr.com/post/49959512506/the-ceo-of-abercrombie-and-fitch-has-a-lot-of" target="_blank"&gt;muggleland&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;the ceo of abercrombie and fitch has a lot of nerve saying that ugly people shouldn’t wear his clothes when he looks like an albino orc from the lord of the rings&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt="image" src="http://media.tumblr.com/4193cfccdb81708d61ca3c0e2652977b/tumblr_inline_mmi162wLqa1qjqrgq.jpg"/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;that’s the fastest I’ve seen a non-fandom post get 100,000 notes&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This Abercrombie CEO thing is hilarious to me for a number of reasons. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1. That is a 68 year old man. How much shit has he pumped into his face? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2. The comment that made the internet go nuts? Wasn&amp;#8217;t even made by this guy. It was made by some guy hawking a book about retail, and the guy said he thought that Mike Jefferies thought these things. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3. The comment that the guy actually made was from 2006. That&amp;#8217;s like a fucking dinosaur in internet time. I don&amp;#8217;t even remember what I was doing in 2006. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;4. Does anyone seriously actually consider Abercrombie a viable fashion choice anymore? They&amp;#8217;ve perpetually sold the exact same clothing for the last 15 years. Cargo pants, cargo shorts, cargo tank tops, cargo flip flops. It is your go to destination for cargo related wares, but I didn&amp;#8217;t think people wore cargo related clothing since 2003. If you&amp;#8217;re shopping at Abercombie, you probably feel the same way about &amp;#8220;fat&amp;#8221; and &amp;#8220;ugly&amp;#8221; people as this dude does, because you&amp;#8217;re a douchebag. &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://illustratedexample.tumblr.com/post/50018185400</link><guid>http://illustratedexample.tumblr.com/post/50018185400</guid><pubDate>Thu, 09 May 2013 10:10:00 -0600</pubDate></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/1bd499bbee05532c7e64d8b5c8814436/tumblr_mmhvw4tjv61r3e4teo1_400.png"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://illustratedexample.tumblr.com/post/49975877700</link><guid>http://illustratedexample.tumblr.com/post/49975877700</guid><pubDate>Wed, 08 May 2013 19:01:53 -0600</pubDate></item><item><title>Master P is essentially making home movies about how cool he is,...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/afa9338b6d162e162eda220cbb394979/tumblr_mm4kniWUjv1qzvtvio1_500.png"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Master P is essentially making home movies about how cool he is, but instead of just setting up a camera in his basement and doing Karate moves, he’s making them into actual movies, because he’s Master P and he’s rich as shit. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Also, I need to see &lt;em&gt;Internet Dating&lt;/em&gt; so bad. &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://illustratedexample.tumblr.com/post/49361852921</link><guid>http://illustratedexample.tumblr.com/post/49361852921</guid><pubDate>Wed, 01 May 2013 09:06:54 -0600</pubDate><category>Looking at Master P's Wikipedia at work because it's important</category></item><item><title>Punk Rock Bands</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/8ccf2134d655b2f13935863f9e8fe8eb/tumblr_mm1d8ouwaS1qzvtvio1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Punk Rock Bands&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://illustratedexample.tumblr.com/post/49205019277</link><guid>http://illustratedexample.tumblr.com/post/49205019277</guid><pubDate>Mon, 29 Apr 2013 15:34:00 -0600</pubDate><category>not a threat</category></item><item><title>Doing really important things on my LinkedIn page</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/66dedd3186197ba50a0f9c4c51ec7fe5/tumblr_mm16hlG6Kb1qzvtvio1_400.png"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Doing really important things on my LinkedIn page&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://illustratedexample.tumblr.com/post/49194026732</link><guid>http://illustratedexample.tumblr.com/post/49194026732</guid><pubDate>Mon, 29 Apr 2013 13:08:09 -0600</pubDate><category>I know a lot about pizzas and machinery</category></item><item><title>New favorite blog alert!</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/2bb351aa39351e736cd7ce6a0354ab2b/tumblr_mgyeaw2uek1r03em7o1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;New favorite blog alert!&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://illustratedexample.tumblr.com/post/49177734907</link><guid>http://illustratedexample.tumblr.com/post/49177734907</guid><pubDate>Mon, 29 Apr 2013 07:57:15 -0600</pubDate></item><item><title>Sundaze</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/6885405b01edb797cef371e8efeda369/tumblr_mlyzmtGPfo1qzvtvio1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sundaze&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://illustratedexample.tumblr.com/post/49092817358</link><guid>http://illustratedexample.tumblr.com/post/49092817358</guid><pubDate>Sun, 28 Apr 2013 08:44:53 -0600</pubDate></item><item><title>#TEAMSANDWICH</title><link>http://illustratedexample.tumblr.com/post/48945598391</link><guid>http://illustratedexample.tumblr.com/post/48945598391</guid><pubDate>Fri, 26 Apr 2013 13:25:59 -0600</pubDate></item><item><title>Dear everybody,

&lt;p&gt;Can we stop calling everything a grilled cheese? This is a Philly Cheesesteak that’s just not on a sub roll, not a grilled cheese. (Ok sure Philly people will argue that it’s a Philly Cheese steak, but you get the point). A grilled cheese is cheese and bread, maybe some condiments or some meat, that’s it. Everything else is a fucking sandwich.&lt;/p&gt;
