Updates.

I really dislike social networking sites, about as much as I like them. I like them very much because they're easy, an excuse to waste time and sometimes (very, very occasionally) you can actually meet cool people through them.

But I was on about the disliking part. I dislike the status updates. I dislike the fucking arrogance and delusions of grandeur that they bring out in people. I dislike people constantly telling me, through facebook or bebo or myspace or twitter or whatever that they're "so hot omg" or "watching eastenders" or "having beans on toast for tea". Another similar thing the websites do is tell you every time a "friend" does anything different. xXheart-core-lozzaxXx has updated her photo's!

And you find that Lauren, as she was called originally before the X's and the Z's came into fashion, has once again taken a number of photo's of herself from above, giving us all a clear (though over exposed) view down her top and of her cleavage, but not of her face. Her lips will probably also be an important thing in the photo, glossed up and pouting, for all the world a 14 year old pornstar.

I've gone off on a little tangent here, but what i'm trying to get at is simply that... I find the entire attitude horribly arrogant, cocky and presumptuous to think that I ACTUALLY GIVE A FUCK.

I DON'T give a shit if you're having beans on toast, or if you've got a bit of a cold. I don't give a shit about your fucking opinions. I don't give a fuck about your stupid posey pictures!

...Of course, this begs the question, why don't I delete my accounts on these websites? They're not likely to change and really, I should just remove the irritation from my life and stop whinging about it. And come on, I'm writing blogs, it's probably arrogant of me to assume anyone gives a shit about my fucking opinions.

The difference just is... the annoying ones who post their status updates (because they're not all annoying, the ones I like aren't annoying usually) are all really thick. At least 80% of the world seems to be made up of stupid dickheads right now, and it's getting on my nerves.

I can't really help it if I don't like reading the equivalent of heat magazine, only about people I know and don't particularly like, every time I go online. But I don't have to read it. This is highly unnecessary rant, and it could all be solved very simply, if I just stopped being a hypocrite.

But hey, I like facebook. I need it to find out how many of my chakras are open, anyway. : )
And remember, 80% of the world are stupid dickheads. The other 20% are fucking morons who just think they're great.

Unfortunatly all those websites are shit, but it is hard to leave them. And there will always be those annoying people that tell you every second of their life in uneeded detail, which is shit.

It could be solved, but...it's hard to just get rid of those things.
