Link
Short for “Hyperlink”, a Link is a miraculous tool used by the internet Gods to connect web pages together.
If you think about it, Links are kind of like the “Kevin Bacon” of the internet - they are the connections that bring everything together. But unlike Kevin Bacon, Links are far easier to find and use.
While some Links may appear to be innocent blue words on a white background, they possess magical powers that can transport you to far-off lands (like Buzzfeed quizzes, am I right?). They are like the wormholes of the internet, only without the pesky time travel.
But be warned, not all Links are created equal. Some will take you to places you don’t want to go. Like that time you clicked on a Link your grandma sent you and ended up on a site selling “enhancement” pills (no judgment).
Links have been around since the early days of the internet, and they have evolved over time. Now, Links can be found everywhere from social media posts to online shopping carts. They are the backbone of the internet, holding everything together like mystical super glue.
So next time you click on a Link, take a moment to appreciate the magic and wonder of this humble but important tool. And who knows, maybe that Link will take you to find your next favorite cat video. Or maybe it will lead you to the edge of the internet where the unicorns and conspiracy theories roam. The excitement of the unknown is what keeps us clicking.
