I enjoy people, conversation and laughter. I thrive in a social atmosphere where I am able to interact, learn, grow and appreciate another person's perspective. But people still suck. Certain kind of people especially - have a very large level of suckage and I want to dedicate this blog to those fine folks I wish I didn't know.
The Takers - These are the people who take, take, and take until you have nothing left to give. The same ones who disappear off the face of the earth until they need something. Those who cannot be bothered to touch base on important holidays let alone call just to say 'hi'. The ones who clearly take more from a relationship than they give. These people suck.
The Fakers - You know the kind. The ones who are nice to your face but then turn around and bash for absolutely no reason. It doesn't matter that you've been kind, caring and considerate to them. It doesn't matter that you've included them in your life and accepted them for who they are. They're still assholes and they still suck.
Busy Bodies - I don't mean those nosey folks who get in your business (but yes, they suck too) I am talking about those people who are just so 'busy' all the time. All day, every day. As if they're the god damn president of the USA. The ones that go on and on about how much they have to do and no time to do it. The ones who can't find five minutes in their day to say hello because they're so damn busy. It makes me tired just thinking about how BUSY they are. I mean their day is jam-packed I don't know how they find the time to breath! And if you haven't gathered - I am sarcastic as the day is long. There isn't a person on the goddamn planet whose life is THAT busy so get the fuck over yourselves already. You Suck.
The "Me-doms" - Let me talk about myself for the next twenty minutes. I'll listen to you for about fifty seconds and then I'll tell you how I totally know what you're saying because of something I went through in my life and then I'll carry on about myself - yet again. Or better yet, I won't ask you one thing. Not ONE thing about how you are or your day is because I'm too busy talking about mine. Yes, I suck.
Do-For-Me'ers - These are those awesome folks who expect everyone else to do everything for them. Who act as if the world owes them something purely due to the fact that they exist. As if they're entitled to something 'just because'. Here's my advice. If you want something - you work for it. You work hard. You plan. And when you have the time and finances, you can have it. Until then. Work a little harder and shut the hell up because you're suckage is ruining my day.
That's enough for now. :)

Facebook Drama
With the invention of the internet, especially Social Media, came what I call - Keyboard Warriors. You know the type. Those who are rough and tough, in your face and claim to be 'telling it like it is' while they are tucked nicely behind the comfort of their monitor.
We've all encountered them, we may even have been them a time or two. Truth of the matter is, it's easier to let your emotions out when you don't have to stare the consequences in the face. However, easier isn't always better.
This kind of tactless approach is most common in areas where you can hide behind an alias and not show you true identity but there is another branch of 'Keyboard Warrioring" that has revved up my thought process today.
Facebook has created a breeding ground for dramatic people to totally engulf themselves in their own self importance and often times they even fool themselves into thinking that people actually care. It's become a place where these DL's (Drama Lovers) gravitate to in an effort to 'call' out people - but it's never done directly - of course not - that would take balls. Instead, it is a generic statement meant to offend a few but hidden behind the guise of a 'message for all'.
If you really were as tough as you act, you would've either tagged the people it's in reference to (Because it is highly unlikely it's a message to all 500 of your Facebook friends) or you would've done it the old fashioned way and paid your pal a little visit face to face.
If you have a message meant for one or two or ten people - why would you post it on Facebook for
all the world to see? Why do you think anyone cares? Why wouldn't you approach those individuals as, oh I dunno, individuals.
Because that would take courage. That would require you to not be a keyboard warrior and address a situation head-on. Like someone who actually was mature. And that's not who you are is it? No. You're one of those people who post bullshit post upon bullshit post victimizing yourself, acting like your life is so bad or there are so many people against you. Acting as if you didn't bring every goddamn thing wrong in your life, upon yourself.
Man up buttercup. You made your bed, you lie in. Accept responsibility. Be accountable. And if you don't like it, change the sheets and try keeping your dirty laundry off of Facebook. Clean it up in real life and maybe you won't have so much to bitch about.
