I'm glad you've mentioned Masonry. Literally just yesterday evening we tried something new with an app that we'd been working on for a good while now, instead of having standard sized items in a Twitter like (top to bottom) timeline we thought we'd lay the items out left to right - this meant we had variable height divs divs stacked row by row - and we have thousands of them. The fact that they are variable height puts you in a tricky position because it throws the rows off totally. Stacking them using Masonry was something that happened out of evolution, not by a "lets make it look like Pinterest" mentality. While plenty of people will be cloning the UI of Pinterest because of its successes you can't write it off as a solution to a problem. I'll know by the end of next week if it was worth it!
