Blogs irritate me. Just a bunch of uppity writers saying whatever they want about whatever they want. It’s the biggest form of vanity you can think of.
Yet here I am doing it. WHY? Why am I belittling myself by becoming larger than life? Well, I’ll tell you. For the same reason I now have a stupid Facebook page! Some call it marketing… I call it Social hacking.
I’m sorry but why do I have to be social? I don’t wanna! Doesn’t anyone remember the cool kids in high school that were anti-socialites? The dude who sat at lunch in the…. Come to think of it they never even sat in the cafeteria at lunch! That’s how cool they were! They had better things to do with their time than gossip or mentally fight their way up the social ladder. They were cool!
Or maybe they were pissed off and didn’t want to talk to anyone. Or maybe they were actually losers… Like the jocks said they were… Or maybe I don’t care anymore!
The point is, why do I have to be social?! Writers should not be social! Writers are the ones cast away by the jocks and cool people in high school and didn’t show up in the caf for lunch at all. Writers were the ones that got no respect (dear God I just quoted Rodney Dangerfield) and no girls until college.
Now don’t get me wrong, I am social. I am very social in certain areas. I have plenty of friends that I talk to about a great many things, however, I am not the kinda guy that can go into a room and just flat out make people listen to me and care about what I have to say even if they never would.. I can’t bullshit a bullshitter as they say. And the fact that people pride themselves on that really makes me angry! Being good a lying should not be a good thing, people should be punished for these evil acts! Instead we give them positions of power, Governors, Lawyers, Presidents, and the worst: used car salesmen!
So as much as Blogs irritate me, being social – FOR THE SAKE OF BEING SOCIAL- really irritates me! It’s like lying to people. I’m not anti-social, I’m just not as much fun in a social environment for the majority of the people in that environment. However, the rest of the people like me… we are gonna have a kickass time!
Now, onto the writing aspect. I don’t mind that writers wanna share things with others. Of course they do. I just don’t like reading blogs where the writer subtlety adds into their blog certain accomplishments. I have seen a very popular writer’s blog where they made a list of things that made them aware they were a real writer. The writer even seemed to be putting themselves down in the blog’s list. However when they add bestseller, and winning a prize to the list, it’s like WOW! Did they just say that I am NOT a “real writer” because I have not been on the top ten bestseller list? And then they have the audacity to blast on other writers that get upset because they have never made it to the top 5 and they should be happy just to make the list?
Maybe lists in general are bad. I know I never receive any joy from them. Grocery lists men I have to go shop. Laundry list… well I’ve never had a laundry list so never mind… gift lists make me upset I have to buy what’s on the list or upset that I didn’t get what was on my list… Not really. Just sounded like something I should write about lists…
So I hope you all enjoy my blog! It should be a fun time for all! Or at least I may learn to be nicer and that people don’t read blogs about people that dislike bloggers… I guess we’ll see!
