A Totally Serious Guide to Posting When You’re Fried, Busy, or Just Done
Some months, your brain is buzzing with ideas.
Other months, it’s just buzzing.
Here at c&t, we’re usually deep in creative strategy—writing thoughtful content, testing big ideas, and obsessing over details that no one else notices but we fix anyway. But this month? We’re tired. Like, very tired.
So we decided to try something different.
Not a break. Not a sabbatical.
An experiment. A content cleanse.
A full-blown, 30-day commitment to the dumbest possible content—on purpose.
Welcome to The No-Thinking Method™.
It’s not smart.
It’s not strategic.
But it will be done.
The No-Thinking Method™:
5 foolproof steps for phoning it in
Bonus pro tips for maximum nonsense
- Screenshot your own post and repost it. Caption it: “Meta.”
- Post the same image three days in a row. Act like it’s a social experiment.
- Use WordArt. Call it retro.
- Caption a cat photo “Thought Leadership.”
- Replace your caption with your grocery list. Don’t explain.
But Seriously…
We’re not doing this because we don’t care. We’re doing it because we care a little too much, a little too often—and needed a creative reset. The No-Thinking Method™ is our satirical take on what happens when marketing forgets to think.
It’s also… kind of fun.
Starting this week, you’ll see 30 days of ridiculous, unhelpful, unapologetically lazy posts across our social channels.
No strategy. No substance. All commitment to the bit.
Follow along if you need a laugh. Or if you’ve ever stared at your screen thinking, “What if I just posted a photo of my stapler?” We’ll be doing that. Proudly.
