Facebook Bleeding Hearts

November 1, 2011

I wonder what makes people post negative statuses in Facebook? Yep statuses is a word so don’t bother complaining. I don’t mean the ‘He is so ugly!’ kind of negativity, I meant those statuses that say ‘Why is it always me?’. Yeah, those updates that scream please, pity me! I mean why in God’s green earth would you want people to pity you? Why would one want to be pitied? Is it just lack of attention? Affection? Did your momma drop you when you were a kid?

It’s bizaare, really. And some of the folks that I see in my Facebook account weren’t doing it just for kicks. As in almost everyday, almost every status update is all about ‘poor little me’. Gad, what’s the big fucking deal? So you got the shorter end of the stick, big whoop! Now get over it already. Don’t go announcing to the entire Facebook universe what a pitiable little puppy you are.

Lately out of pure exasperation, I just identify these nega people and hide all their updates. That way all their negative vibes don’t effect my happy little world. I would have loved to post this piece as an update in my facebook account but then again I like to keep that part of my life as happy as possible so this rant will just have to die its slow death here.

Anyway, if you’re a member of the Facebook Bleeding Hearts Club, here are a few reminders.

1. Life is too short. Choose to be happy. People are doing their damnedest to be happy. Your posting negative status updates is just not helping.

2. If you’re unhappy, call a friend, grab a beer, get drunk, then sleep it off. Do you really need to unload it on Facebook?

3. We don’t care about your problems! Well maybe we do, but not all the time. Jesus H Christ we do have problems of our own as well. But we don’t bitch about it on Facebook!

4. Moaning about your problems on Facebook just makes you look pathetic.

5. For fuck’s sake enough already.
