RANT: Why Are People So DERANGED Today? The Ridiculousness Of Publicly Shaming Others Online

How's it going my gumdrops? Similar to an old Xanga 1.0 blog that was published 4 years ago, this is a rant blog about the ridiculousness of publicly shaming others online. Publicly shaming people online has become ridiculously rampant, lately.

Years ago, I LOVED being on the Internet. Now, I find myself hating it more than anything these days. The Internet has turned into an online playground for cruel, inhumane, sadistic, vindictive, and malicious men, women, and children.

People like them have ALWAYS existed, but now there are more platforms for these narcissistic sociopaths and low-lives to spread their misanthropy like a fatal disease. 

Age, gender, race, ethnicity, religion, non-religion, social class, political affiliation, sexuality, etc. all factor into this hatred.

Originally, I was going to say that all of the above do NOT  factor into this hatred. However, they really DO. People want to hate someone for the sake of hating.

Before anybody wants to use Donald Trump as a scapegoat, this hatred existed LONG before he became our president. 

This level of HATRED worsened since the year of 2000, which was before President Bill Clinton left the White House for George W. Bush and before the terrorist attacks had occurred on September 11, 2001.

By the 21st Century, more people with zero involvement in the entertainment industry became obsessed with filming and taking pictures of themselves ad nauseam. 

In addition, more of those from of that same ilk started filming and taking pictures of other people for exploitation and public humiliation purposes, as well as praise.

This may seem like slapstick humor for those depraved low-lives, but it's not for those who must endure it. 

Some, who have suffered from public shaming online lost their businesses, jobs, families, as well as their own lives, if they haven't already committed suicide over their reputations being ruined.

Within the last 1-3 years of so-called "political activist" groups provoking the genocide of law enforcement and white people, the hatred keeps getting worse.

This is also when they are NOT  exploiting women, children, murder, rape, suicide, natural disasters, charities, tragedies, violating our privacy, bullying, stalking, cyber stalking, and slandering others for the sake of being mean-spirited and malicious.

These are the same types of self-righteous low-lives and narcissistic sociopaths, who fail to understand WHY they have no real friends, girlfriends, boyfriends, spouses, etc.

Over the last week to 2 years, I have endured smear campaigns, cyber stalking, and public shaming NOT  by catty women, but by men suffering from overblown egos and Little Dick Syndrome. 

If you didn't already know, Little Dick Syndrome is basically when men in high positions abuse their power.

Some may be scoffing and rolling their eyes at me for publishing this blog, especially since I am not flaunting statistical data. 

Today's blog does NOT  require an infographic to demonstrate how incredibly abominable public shaming over the Internet has become.

Whether you're watching, reading, or listening to the news or not, publicly shaming other people online continues to increase. It is the female gender, that endures the most public shaming.

Belonging to a toxic forum such as Adult Swim and social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, etc, etc. are enough to make ANYONE with some human decency want to delete his/her own account(s), if not abandon those sites.

Those toxic websites enable, pander to, and condone misogynists and misanthropes. 

I believe the administrators shut down Adult Swim's forum without giving the community any notice, last winter because they saw how atrocious the community became.

Over these last 3 years, some of my subscribers already knew just how horrible it was for some of us to belong to a male-dominated forum for a divisive and male-centric Cable TV network.

I never expected for everybody to personally like me on Adult Swim's forum. Although, I NEVER expected for so many posters to personally discriminate against me for being a newer poster, while personally harboring an irrational hatred for no reason.

I belong to MANY websites ranging from blogging communities, social media sites, to Anime forums. 

NONE of those communities have ever assumed the worst about me, as a human being or my good intentions. 

They especially do NOT  feel threatened or resent me for being a woman of color, who built her own website for free.

Over 2 years ago, I noticed that those posting on Adult Swim's forum are CLASSIST and generally begrudge successful people, especially successful women. 

The posters waste MOST  their time criticizing someone's diction, font size, font color, show ratings, politics, religion, favorite shows, etc, etc.

Shortly after joining Adult Swim's community, my feelings about the network became worse than they were before joining. 

I already knew the assholes in charge of the network loved mocking their own viewers, disguising their insults as jokes, were patronizing, and were EXTREMELY sexist towards women. Belonging to Adult Swim's forum was a lot worse than imagined and expected.

Even though there were other women posting on Adult Swim's forum, the men over there barely have respect for women in general. 

The man-children have this great sense of entitlement. Not to generalize every Adult Swim poster, but certain posters within Adult Swim's community REALLY  believe that everyone owes them something.

The man-children from Adult Swim's forum compare themselves to Reddit and 4Chan trolls. 

Nearly 2 weeks ago, an Adult Swim friend said that she was trying to learn Japanese. In her thread, I let her know that I sent her links to Japanese books I used, throughout my years of studying.

Then, I listed 5 different styles of writing Japanese, which included Furigana. There was already an overbearing know-it-all in her thread. He claimed he was the "Go-To Guy" for studying the language because he automatically assumed that nobody knew Japanese except him. This was where it became ridiculous.

Because I said that Furigana was another way of writing Japanese, he derailed my friend's thread by discrediting me the ENTIRE time. Furigana is mostly used as a Japanese reading aid for those learning to write the language much like Romaji.

When I was learning Japanese as a teenager, that poster was ONLY  a toddler. There are actual Japanese books and worksheets with Furigana and I also had teachers that taught me how to write Furigana. Here's the kicker, that poster claims to be the "Go-To Guy" YET  he's not fluent in his own native language!

That poster made such a HUGE stink about what I said. Eventually, I told he and everyone else that I studied Japanese for YEARS and have a BA in Asian Studies.

This was along with letting him know that I was not some pretentious Weeaboo, who studied Japanese only for the purpose of wanting to understand what characters were saying in Japanese animation.

Mr. Know-It-All became SO offended by my statement that he implied that I was lying, then THREATENED to make "a laughingstock out of me on Reddit" simply because I said, that Furigana is a part of the Japanese writing system.

Were his antics even necessary?

Finally, I told the "Go-To Guy" that he was acting like a juvenile, pompous, self-righteous, know-it-all and I let him know, that most people will NOT  tolerate his antics.

Since he refused to stop derailing my friend's thread, I told him to go get bent and left. Certain Adult Swim posters have extremely overblown egos.

Typically, Adult Swim posters must turn EVERYTHING into a serious competition over who is right and who is wrong, must turn fun and innocent discussions into flame wars, if not intentionally take something that was said out of context to cause division, must have the last word, psychoanalyze, nitpick, minimize, and discredit everything and everyone.

In addition, some of the male posters seriously expect women to be submissive and weak to them and owe them an explanation for any and every little thing somebody says, does, likes, etc. This includes male Adult Swim posters being predators like the lowlife, who has been slandering AND purposely MISGENDERING me for the last 2 years.

That narcissistic sociopath expects for women to give him nude selfies, posts revenge porn, premeditates fights among minority female posters, loves violating our privacy by publicly posting copies of our e-mail messages, anonymous reports, posting death threats, sending threatening messages to women, hacking other posters' accounts and servers, and gossips about us like some high school gossip queen!

Our crooked, former head moderator from Adult Swim is mostly to blame for the never ending smear-campaign, which was launched against me 2 years ago. 

That lowlife, piece of shit sadistically violated my privacy by doxing my anonymous reports about someone, who only PRETENDED to be my friend to cause social division.

That "friend" was a manipulative, backstabbing liar, and a slanderer, who set me up to fight with 1 of his flunkies and got me banned on Memorial Day 2015. That was why I removed him from my website TWICE.

Seems spiteful to some, BUT would you want to be "friends" with someone who sets you up to fight a flunky of theirs on a holiday? 

Would you want to be friends with someone, who guilt trips you? 

Would you want to be friends with someone, who lets their other "friends" attack you, then be blamed for being attacked and insulted for it?

Every time I reported the attacks on Adult Swim, our former crooked head moderator would purposely ignore my reports with malicious intent. 

OTHERWISE, he singled me out by making indirect call out threads, publicly threatening to ban me THRICE for anonymously reporting assholes, who attacked me and OTHER posters, as well as doxing my anonymous reports while COLLUDING with them!

I could list a number of atrocities our former head moderator committed on Adult Swim within these last 2 years. He panders, enables, condones, and sometimes PARTICIPATES in these atrocities.

For example, a few divisive Adult Swim posters wanted our sub-forum to play a game called Turkey Shoot for Thanksgiving 2015. 

Turkey Shoot was a divisive game our sub-forum wanted to play, which consisted of PUBLIC SHAMING.

The objective was to find the WORST  threads they could by other posters. 

After finding those threads, posters necrobumped them to the front page saying that they "bagged a turkey."

***Whoever bagged the worst threads for PUBLICLY SHAMING POSTERS, won prizes!

Some of us did NOT  participate in Turkey Shoot because it was a divisive and mean-spirited game in disguise to play for Thanksgiving. 

All the while, our former crooked head moderator always loves patronizing us with his self-righteous hypocrisy about not flame baiting, necrobumping threads with malicious intent, and some other self-righteous lectures.

Originally, he was hesitant to play this game. Then, my former "friend," who has been cyber stalking, misgendering, and smearing my reputation for the last 2 years, guilt tripped our moderator into playing that public shaming game.

Honestly, it would not surprise me, if he blackmailed our head moderator because he is just that deplorable of a human being. 

I still have his harassing messages that he sent to me on my website. They are still in the Contact form submissions, that I receive from people who want to send a message to me.

Since that narcissistic sociopath wants to keep cyber stalking, misgendering, slandering doxing, and publicly shaming me online, I have contemplated reporting to somebody in a much higher power, who CAN make him disappear from the web. 

The man's a narcissistic sociopath with mental, behavioral, and substance abuse problems excluding the fact, he's an unfit father and had a hand in his friend being murdered, when he was a teenager. 

I only know about this BECAUSE he posted about it on our former crooked head moderator's PUBLIC forum, earlier this year.

Some of you may be reading my blogs and assuming, that I am some militant feminazi who hates men. 

For the record, I do NOT  hate men. My audience has ALWAYS been male-dominated because of the music I played on my radio show, years ago and my interests. 

Egomaniacs have been taking me to task these last 3 years. Obviously, they see me as a threat to their manhood, when I'm NOT.

Today's blog is longer than my usual blogs because publicly shaming people online is much worse than a terminal disease and is barely discussed. 

In the meantime, here is a video explaining more in detail about social media shaming.

The National: "Social Media Shaming" (2015)

Cartoon Sunday: Neurotically Yours Programming Conflict [Chibisode]

How's it going my gumdrops? Towards the end of last week, I had the opportunity to talk with Jonathan Ian Mathers (You know the creator of Neurotically Yours and Foamy The Squirrel?) on Facebook. 

Those of you, who LOVE Foamy The Squirrel as much as I do, probably want to ask:

What was it like talking to Jonathan Ian Mathers (JIM)?

Honestly, I have no complaints. I respect the man for his individuality and his artistic ability. We need more people like Jonathan Ian Mathers more than ever, this second. Encountering more individualists like ourselves is like stumbling upon a unicorn.

Most people have no idea what it's like to create something of their own from nothing or to be more innovative. Take Hollywood now, for instance. 

Before we can blink our eyes, filmmakers announce that they are remaking and/rebooting classic movies, cartoons, and shows, that really DON'T  need remakes.

This is partly why I stopped investing time and money on watching, listening, and buying most entertainment.

Hollywood entertainment has become nothing other than garbage 98% of the time today. Only fools will waste their money on garbage. You may say, "One's trash is another one's treasure." Today that old saying barely applies anymore.

Almost everything sucks ass. This is not including the A to F-list celebutards. Over the last 12-15 years, those same know-it-all, zealots continuously patronize everybody and act like self-righteous, "political activists" about everything known to man.

Truth be told, those same people really don't care about much of anything or anyone. That is unless money, being pretentious, materialistic, and worrying about their own self-image to us lowly peasants are at risk.

Like I was saying, I like AND respect Jonathan Ian Mathers for his individuality and his artwork. Not only do I like and respect JIM, but I can also empathize with him for being mostly solo for these last 15 years.

While we were talking last Thursday and Friday, we discussed how saturated content creation is today. Everything has turned into a competition. 

Even JIM has problems reaching viewers like he was able to do years ago. This is mostly because we live in a world where everybody MUST  be seen and heard 24/7, almost every animal and person are "famous" now without notice, shallow and self-centered, attention whores must be told they are "beautiful" and "winners," and everyone IS a winner, now. 

Let's not forget about those uproarious "safe spaces."

Because someone uploads and posts pictures of themselves, their pets, and kids EVERY damn nano second, they are "stars" regardless of how shallow and vapid they truly are as humans and animals.

Meanwhile, content creators must overcome indifference from shallow and VAPID people. More original content with words or other forms of art and entertainment, which doesn't pander to mainstream audiences, are mostly underappreciated and ignored.

This is something I have been coping with over these last 3-5 years. INDIFFERENCE. You would be amazed at the number of people I have reconnected with over the years, who pretended to care about how my life has been and what I am currently doing.

The moment I mention the slightest accomplishment, they will typically want some favors, try social climbing because they expect me to be "famous," or assume I am close to FAME, since I have met and interacted with celebrities, politicians, and public figures.

Otherwise, those same people may become insecure, distant, feel threatened, jealous, resentful, make snide and backhanded remarks, and/transfer and project their own insecurities on me.

If not the preceding, I have to endure friend collectors on social media sites because they want an increase in their viewership for selfies like shallow, high school girls. People like that, I have no time for and had to dump a few over the last week to 5 years.

If you seriously don't care about long lost family, friends, classmates, exes, etc. do NOT waste OUR time by inviting yourselves back into our lives only because YOU want to say, that you know and remember us, then pretend we do NOT exist to you.

Since we were previously on the topic of content creation, Jonathan Ian Mathers also mentioned that he is not really skilled with self-promotion and that social media and other sites want money to promote our content. I understand exactly what he means. 

I am terrible with self-promotion and I don't have the money for someone to promote my content.

Self-promoting on social media is a royal pain in the ass. When you are surrounded by indifferent people, including "friends" on social media, it exacerbates the problem(s). 

In addition, Jonathan Ian Mathers and other content creators on YouTube now have to deal with censorship.

Since the time I was a teenager, I have always been anti-censorship. 

You know, if MORE average people and Hollywood entertainers desperately want to be "activists," they should go back to protesting censorship like entertainers did in 1984.

Tipper Gore and the helicopter moms from 1984 are to blame for the censorship we have today. 

It is also Slick Willy's fault, that we have the V-chip in our TV's. Notice which smarmy politicians made CENSORSHIP official?

*cough-cough* Clinton/Gore *cough-cough*

This is about as political I will get on It's Not All Gumdrops & Unicorns. I try to stay as apolitical as possible because most really CANNOT  handle other people with opposing views. All this talk about content creation and censorship is only fitting for this blog.

I believe Jonathan Ian Mathers was intentionally pushing the proverbial envelope with these 2 videos. He is actively exercising his rights to freedom of speech on YouTube. 

Those of you with YouTube channels should be doing the same. Anyway, here is today's Cartoon Sunday.

Foamy The Squirrel "R.I.P. Income: YouTube Ad Revenue Crisis" (2016)

Neurotically Yours: "Programming Conflict" [UNCENSORED] (2016)

What's That? Entertainment Media Is MORE Popular Than Social Media Among Teens?!

How's it going my gumdrops? The other day on my local news, I learned that Generation Z teenagers spend more time with entertainment media than using social media.

Just to warn you in advance, I noticed that my local CBS ripped this report from the news rag channel, CNN. Therefore, you can take it or leave it. I don't sit around watching CNN or any other national news channel for that matter. 

CBS 58: "Teens Spend 9 Hours A Day Using Media, Report Says"

As I was saying, the Generation Z teenagers are supposedly spending more time enjoying entertainment media than social media. Thank you, God!

In a way, I'm somewhat relieved to hear this news (if it's actually true) because it would mean that Generation Z still enjoys being entertained as opposed to being brainwashed and bored into oblivion by self-righteous, wannabe "political activists."

It has been at least 15 years, since I was last a teenager. Throughout the decades, most teenagers were normally interested in entertainment and fashion, anyway.

Unlike what students have been forced to do over these last 11 years, those of us in our early 30's-50's were NOT  necessarily required to militantly march around our campuses and across the country with our high school teachers and professors to protest religions, wars, and presidents we hated and/or condemned them for classroom assignments. 

Furthermore, it was not an extreme requirement to be politically correct 24/7. We had enough of our own personal problems to endure.

Speaking of militant educators from personal experience, I had a Baby Boomer English Lit. professor, who had political hatred for both Bush Administrations. He especially hated The Reagans and every Conservative Republican in existence. This is dating back to 2005.

Before entertainment was ruined by the politically divisive media and self-righteous, politically divisive, Hollywood "activists," we made the most out of our adolescence by socializing, dating, shopping, and enjoying entertainment with or without friends. 

Everyone did not have cell phones and if you had your own phone line to your bedroom (like moi), that was still pretty cool. Wow! Life without a cell phone. What a shocker!

Entertainment's original purpose was for escapism. Now, it is more of a platform for attention whores, political propaganda, and self-righteous, wannabe political activists.

Before 2003 and 2004, there was no such thing as MySpace or Facebook. During the 1990's and early 21st Century, the closest to social networking were forums and blogging forums. It was great!

We didn't have to take selfies every God damn second for literally every stranger around the world to validate our physical appearances. We had our own physical scrapbooks and photo albums to hold onto our memories WITHOUT  being online for the whole world to see us for validation.

Also, it was NOT  a requirement for us to broadcast the vapid play by play of our daily lives and/or politically and religiously oppress each others' views. Oppression and spying with divisive tools is the way to be today. Oh, how lovely.

It is a disgrace that Generation Z teenagers must have sharents and helicopter parents friending them on social media sites because they want to spy on everything their sons and daughters say and do. 

If today's parents can't trust their teenagers and younger children, they should NOT  have social media accounts.

Teenagers value their freedom from their parents and don't want their parents EAVESDROPPING.

Meaning, they want to talk amongst their friends about crushes, boyfriends, girlfriends, etc. without their parents constantly eavesdropping into their conversations.

Remember when parents, mainly MOTHERS would eavesdrop by listening to their sons/daughters talking on landline phones?

Landline phones were replaced with Facebook walls and other social media sites with walls for teenagers to have their conversations with friends, boyfriends, and girlfriends online.

Granted, a nice portion of their discussions are usually PUBLIC. However, they have more control over who they allow on their friends list and who can see their posts. 

This especially can be said for IM chat features. Aside from the privacy features on social media sites, teenagers really DON'T  need to be on social media sites because there's too many creeps online.

Considering that I'm old enough to have my own 8th grader, I would only allow my son or daughter to use the Internet for homework assignments and research. There are a lot of sociopaths, pedophiles, serial killers, and other types of lowlife criminals using the Internet.

If the Internet is NOT safe for adults, why would it be any safer for minors?

This may sound like I'm contradicting myself, but just think about it. Lately, adults are proving to be just as careless and irresponsible as teenagers. 

I can understand why parents eavesdrop on their teenagers' conversations. At the same time, teenagers still value their privacy.

Regarding teenagers and entertainment, they should be like the typical teenagers. In other words, they should be watching TV, listening to music, talking to their friends on the phone, NOT  texting and sexting them to cause huge backlash. 

Teenagers should also have their typical sleepovers, parties, DATES, etc. They have their entire lives to be adults. Therefore, they should be enjoying their adolescence, while they still can. Tomorrow is promised to NO ONE.

What's So Funny? Rory The Guinea Pig Makes Me Laugh!

How's it going my gumdrops? Are you in need of some laughs, during this stressful time of the year? 

I'm not a huge, self-righteous, political activist about loving animals like many people are today, however I do love most animals. This especially includes reptiles.

Over the last several years of being on social media sites, many have annoyed the hell out of me with their cats. Today's cat lovers tend to regularly act like they gave birth to Jesus. 

This may sound harsh to say, but some cat owners can be just as annoying as those proud parents, who think their children can walk on water and turn water into wine. 

Apparently, some of these cat lovers feel like acting self-righteous and morally superior to others because giving birth to children is somehow BENEATH them. Ugh! Enough is enough already! Give it a friggin' rest!

Aside from the preceding rant, I have chosen to share something cute and furry for laughs. Today's blog is more of a tribute to a friend/subscriber from Blogster. 

Scottster has been having a rough time on Blogster. Surely, most of my Xangan and Blogsterian friends/subscribers are familiar with that problem, which is all the more reason why I only comment on their pages compared to blogging on Blogster, now.

Meanwhile, I stumbled upon this cute and funny YouTube vlog last week by Rory The Guinea Pig. 

Briefly voiced by Ricky Gervais, Rory read some of the hilarious insults about his physical appearance from his Twitter account.

Before watching that video, here's an informative Animal Planet segment about guinea pigs.

Animal Planet's Pets 101: Guinea Pigs

At the age of 7, my mother bought my original guinea pig, Christopher. Christopher lived for 5 years. 

After acquiring mite, he started having scratching seizures and had to be euthanized. 

For my 13th birthday, my mother bought my 2nd guinea pig, Fantastical. He was the craziest guinea pig I ever owned!

Fantastical seemed more like a human trapped inside a guinea pig's body. He constantly strategized ways of climbing outside his tank. 

As I was leaving my bedroom years ago, Fantastical literally climbed on top of his water bottle and hung from the rim of his tank. With good timing, I luckily bolted over to catch him from falling.

The next incident involved my youngest aunt and I eating breakfast, in our living room. We sat on our living room floor at the table, while watching MTV and monitoring Fantastical in his cardboard box that we carted him in for babysitting purposes.

Once I let Fantastical outside his box, he strolled across our living room floor and BIT  my aunt's bacon. 

Had she actually set her plate on the living room table, he would've been unable to reach it. 

Fantastical biting my aunt's bacon was hilarious! He almost lived an entire year. He would have lived at least 3-4 years longer had my great-grandmother's evil friend not put some Juju on him.

At 16, I bought my last 2 guinea pigs. Altivo (meaning "superior" and "haughty" in Spanish) lived for only 3 years. Ookii (meaning "big" in Japanese) lived for 4 years. Between the 2, Altivo was my favorite.

I believe I favored Altivo more because of the way the other guinea pigs mistreated him at Pet World. I saw another guinea pig bite his face and he started whining. I REALLY wanted to reach over that cage and smack his bully on the butt!

A month later, I bought Ookii and he became Altivo's next bully. The bullying was to the extent that I had to buy 1 extra cage to separate them from each other. 

Altivo and Ookii only shared a cage together, whenever I had to clean their cages every so many days. Had they always shared a cage, I believe Ookii would've killed Altivo.

Even though Altivo was my favorite next to Fantastical, Altivo would sometimes get an attitude with me. I made a joke about using his body heat to keep me warm and he got angry. Altivo's cheeks looked inflated and he started grinding his teeth.

I didn't say I was going to kill him for his fur or anything! I only joked about using his body heat to keep me warm and he took offense to it!

Psychologists claim that animals don't have feelings. I don't believe that for a second! I know when animals are happy, sad, angry, etc. 

After joking about using Altivo's body heat to keep me warm, he snubbed me! The next day, I went to take him out his cage and he literally did his paw at me!

Altivo looked like he told me, "Talk to the paw cuz I ain't listenin'!" 

I had a Michael Kelso moment from That '70s Show. You know those scenes of Kelso shrieking, "Oh!"? 

Yup! That was my reaction to Altivo giving me "The Paw." Talk about rude!

After giving me that attitude, I snuck up to his cage and flashed him! Within seconds, Altivo literally did a 360 bolt around his cage.

His 360 bolt around the cage was a slapstick moment. It was hilarious much like Fantastical sneaking and biting my youngest aunt's bacon.

Years later, Altivo and Ookii for some reason died days before Christmas. Their deaths were 1 year apart from each other. I was devastated when 3 of my 4 guinea pigs died. 

I was a little sad, although I wasn't heartbroken over Ookii's death. He always loved biting me.

During 10th grade, Ookii bit my ear once and I had to wear a band aid on it. 

My college sophomore year, he died, which was shortly after coming home from UW-Parkside for Christmas Break.

The year before, I cried tears and mourned Altivo's death because I watched him die, when I was in the middle of working on my Advanced Composition research paper. 

Our last dog, Alexis also seemed depressed because she viewed Altivo and Ookii as her puppies. That sounds strange, but it's true.

Anyway, I've talked enough about my guinea pigs. With that being said, here are 3 YouTube vlogs featuring Rory The Guinea Pig.

What's Up With Bathroom/Bedroom Selfies & Thirsty People On Social Media?

This blog was previously published on Xanga May 28, 2013.

 

 

Hey Xangan friends, readers, and subscribers! I hope you all enjoyed your Memorial Day. Lately, I've been blogging about Cartoon Network and Adult Swim. 

Today, I'm switching things up by addressing 3 growing epidemics. They are bathroom and bedroom models and thirsty people on social media.

If you don't know what bathroom models are, they are people from BOTH genders (mainly girls), who self-take pictures by using their camera phones and bathroom mirrors. Bedroom models love taking selfies in their underwear with "sexy" poses (usually with mix match bras and panties), while in their bedrooms and on their beds. 

Some of these "models" from both genders also take pictures in their pajamas, when they have supposedly "just woken up." Then, they will upload their pictures with a camera phone on their Facebook profiles and/other social media sites. It's mostly done to get more than 1 million "Likes." 

As wretched as these ideas are for selfies, the bathroom and bedroom models know the young and old thirsties will bumrush their walls and start cat calling them online.

When I say, "thirsty," I don't literally mean thirsty. As I explained in a previous blog, thirsty is slang for desperate. 

On my end of social media, I see QUITE a few thirsties on Facebook pages, Yahoo, etc. Every time a male or female friend of mine posts a selfie or a status update, desperate men and women bumrush to their pages like sycophants within a flash, salivating everywhere. It's not only annoying, but also disgusting.

To give you some examples, I have 1 bathroom modeling friend, who complained about having a migraine. This 1 thirsty creep of hers offered to be her "personal masseuse," when she's already in a "complicated relationship." 

Another example would be a male Facebook friend of mine. The man takes selfies and does YouTube Astrology vlogs. The single, horny, thirsty, and salivating cougars need to wipe their mouths with napkins and handkerchiefs. 

Like the sycophants that they are, they put his attention-seeking ass on such a high pedestal, that it is hilarious. It is wonderful to give and receive compliments. However, some people act like they've never had a man or woman in their entire lives. I remember what it was like to be crazy over a guy, during my youth.

Generally speaking, all these thirsty sycophants from various generations look like disgraces. They make everyone look pathetic and make it harder for the few of us to find someone of quality in real life because of their desperate behavior. 

Not only do they look pathetic, but I also feel humiliation for these bathroom and bedroom models and their thirsties. The thirsties have no idea how insecure they look to other people. 

They have that "he/she is out of my league" mentality and worship the attention whores like they're idle gods and goddesses. In addition to this RIDICULOUSNESS, these thirsties should already know, that flattery does not always get them any and everywhere. 

They are putting narcissistic attention whores on pedestals, while over inflating their egos. They purposely titillate their thirsties more with their sexuality, then laugh at them once they are gone. 

All the while, there are people like me basically acting like "flies on their walls." We roll our eyes and laugh at such stupidity. Some of you may be reading this and are probably saying, "She's only posting this because she's jealous." No, I am not. 

I take pride in knowing, that I don't need someone to validate me by telling me how "pretty" and "sexy" I am ad nauseam. 

I have spent the last decade enduring men AND women degrading and objectifying me, strategizing how they were going to bait me into having sex with them, trying to get my phone numbers, nudie pics, cyber sex, etc. I have my own baggage.

More than anything, I would much rather have people value my intelligence and respect me as a former Radio DJ/Hostess than always have thirsties salivating over my physical appearance. 

I only keep in contact with some attention whores for high school reunions, comic relief, entertainment purposes, and partly because THEY wanted me to add them. Otherwise, they are only keeping me as their personal audience and party guest. 

Not to sound conceited, but I don't really need narcissistic attention whores for actual "friendships." Being attention whores is all they care about in their lives. Don't you like that "Columbian Exchange"?

These same uneducated few only squeak by in life because they are "pretty faces" and/have "sexy bodies." They barely had to work hard for their respect or "success." Everything was handed to them based on their "beauty" and promiscuity. In some ways, I really pity them. 

They will never know, who their true friends are and who really has respect for them regarding business and relationship matters. 

Generally speaking, there will always be those jealous few, who will try smearing the "beautiful" and "sexy" people's reputations. 

That's not including stalkers, sociopaths, and serial killers trying to kill them out of spite for being rejected and/obsession.

Therefore, if any of you out there are bathroom/bedroom models and thirsties, please stop. It's NOT cute, hot, sexy, or flattering in the slightest. It's disgusting, unsanitary, desperate, and humiliating, if anything. 

Try showing some pride, wear some clothes, ask somebody to take your pictures for you, wipe up that saliva, and close your legs and mouths. If you need a better explanation, check out this YouTube video:

Why Are Your Friends' Friends So Annoying?

This blog was originally published on Xanga April 20, 2013.

 

 

Hey there Xangans! I've been trying to lay as low as possible this week. This most definitely applies to posting on "social" media sites. This past week, some of my friends' other friends have been irksome both on Facebook and Xanga. It's really annoying when you're in a good or semi decent mood. There's always that 1, obnoxious friend of another friend, who suddenly feels the need to make his/her cameo appearance with snide remarks about something you said or did.

If that's not the case, that person, who you share a mutual friend(s) with, makes a mountain out of a molehill. Don't you wish that he/she would just shut the hell up and go somewhere? I know I do. That's why I try avoiding certain people at all costs.

On Facebook, I adjusted my high school classmates/friends' status updates to "Only Important," in my news feed. Then, I block, whoever annoys me. I enjoy talking to a few friends, astrologers, celebrities, YouTube vloggers, and public figures, getting entertainment updates in my news feed, along with winning prizes. Otherwise, I would deactivate my Facebook account for the 4th time.

That site can be incredibly toxic. I usually get into a really bad mood almost every time I am using my Facebook account. I believe 1 of the main reasons is because there are friend collectors, who make me add them to their "Friends List." They hardly initiate any conversations with me.

They're predominantly 30-year-olds and younger, who are begging bar hoppers, skanking up the town at dives, and are tagged in their latest drunk face selfies. 

Otherwise, they are whining about their marital statuses or lack thereof and posting incoherent babbling updates by cell phone. Some of them should be at home raising their demon spawns, focusing on their relationships, paying their bills, and/being more productive with their time.

Considering that they barely talk to me, I don't post on their walls as much anymore. Every time they do talk to me, I have to deal with their interloping friends on their walls, who feel the need to prove their existence with snide remarks. I'll be in the middle of complimenting a friend about something or wishing our friend well. 

Suddenly, this bitch or asshole feels the need to get an attitude with me for no reason. This has also happened to me on Xanga. These are some of the exact same types of people we encounter in real life.

I'm sure almost everybody had situation when they had to share their friends with the most sickening people in existence. It seems as though those people purposely try to be annoying. I think it is partly because of jealousy, showing hierarchy by being territorial over friendships, and simply because they enjoy annoying other people. 

I do NOT mind sharing my friends with other people. However, most of the time, their other friends believe they're at a higher rank than I am because so-and-so has been friends with our friend longer, or have a "closer bond" than I do with the same friend.

There's nothing worse than having to share friends with divisive people and be forced into a position where you have to spend time together with people you despise. I've been on both ends of the spectrum. I've been torn between friends disliking each other and I have been THAT friend, who shares mutual hatred for my friend's other friend. 

I try my hardest to avoid social events where I am forced into a situation with that other person, while our mutual friend expects everything to be Kumbaya.

Whenever I know my friends dislike each other, I don't expect them to be friends just because they are both friends with me. I will individually spend my time with certain friends at a certain time. That way, there won't be any altercations. If the 2 or more happen to all become friends and get along with everybody, that's great. Although, I'm not going to force them to be all friends with each other because of me.

What are your thoughts about annoying friends of friends?
