Taglines

Since taglines are oh-so-important and so utterly pithy and positively oozing with meaning, I thought it appropriate to spend a bit of time thinking about mine. Because, you know, with a name like 'mixed nuts' a blog can so easily be confused with, say, a laundry list and it's so very important that you explain that it isn't.

So our search for clever little taglines for our blogs threw up the following for mine:

  1. Smarter than the average nut

  2. More nuts than you can shake a stick at

  3. Because you're worth it

  4. My imagination is more than a match for your reality

  5. Nuts eat dementors for breakfast

  6. The premium choice for sophisticated hunter-gatherers

  7. Evisceration is best done on a cool day

  8. Mixed nuts are happy nuts


I'm quite partial to number 3 simply because it's so beautifully inane. 4 and 7 come from my journals. They're true, too. Don't ask. 1,2, and 5 are similar to 'mixed nuts are happy nuts' (which Ameel came up with and I quite like) and don't really say much at all, which is good. As for number 6, the more I look at it, the less I like it. Hmm. Since so much hangs in the balance, I think I'll simply avoid a decision and cycle through the lot. Hey it gives me something to do while I try to write something worth writing.
