The Office Fridges Tumblr is truly the opposite of "food porn" with its mold-infested photos.
The Office Fridges blog has a tagline that says it all: "No matter what lies inside or outside your fridge, we're curious to find out." From disgusting leftover take-out containers to many cartons of milk, the Office Fridges blog points out that maybe it's time to have a meeting about your office communal space.
Implications - Blogs that point out flaws of other peoples' lives tend to be popular, as they make viewers feel that they are in a more fortunate situation. These blogs also evoke the viewers to attempt to combat these problems as they mock them.
