Hello. I’m a little piece of dummy text. And I’ve been one for as long as I can remember. It wasn’t easy to understand what it means to be dummy text: You don’t make any sense. Really, no sense at all. You get inserted out of context and shuffled around—and often aren’t even read in the first place. But does that alone make me a worse piece of text than others? All right, I’ll never make it onto the bestseller lists. But other texts don’t make it there either. And that’s why it doesn’t really bother me to be a placeholder.
