Pointless Filler Text

What is the point of filler text? When you are making a web site, often times you need filler text to show what a section of the website or blog will look like once there is text in that section. While you could use the typical Loren Ipsum site filler text, I’ve created some of my own filler text. I call it “Pointless Filler Text.” The goal with every section is to create text that means almost nothing, and may even be funny to someone reading it while checking out your site template.All text released under the “Pointless Filler Text” section of this site is licensed under Creative Commons Zero which means you can copy, modify, distribute and use the text for free, including for commercial purposes, without asking permission from or providing attribution to this site. Have fun!

Pointless Text #2 - Water Bottle

The other day I thought to myself, “Self, I need a portable water bottle.” I’m always buying so many plastic water bottles and throwing them away that it was seriously time to do something about this situation. I researched all of the different water bottles that I could buy online. I limited the range of bottles available to purchase by setting the price limit to $60 (no sense in getting too crazy). I then went to Bed Bath and Beyond, Ikea, Target, and Walmart. None of the stores had any of the styles that I liked while doing research online, so I gave up. When I got home later that night, I asked my cat, “Cat, what kind of water bottle would you get?” He paused for a second and slowly walked over towards his water bowl. After taking a drink of water from the bowl, he began cleaning himself. I still don’t know what to do.

Pointless Text #1 - Great Bones

“One of the greatest lines you could ever say in your life is “this house has good bones.” You may be interested in buying a house, investing in a house that you want to flip, or just visiting a friends house for dinner. No matter the circumstances surrounding your entry to the house, just make sure to slip in the phrase, “This house has good bones.” If you’re planning to remodel the house, other variations accepted include “The changes we’re making are mainly cosmetic. The bones of the house are great” or if you’re in a house over 75 years old you can say, “This house is 75 years old!? Wow, it’s still got great bones.”
