My life in words, many words.

Man up, bro.


A short rant. Why do people express their issues through Facebook? I post statuses about almost everything. I check-in everywhere I go. I post lots of pictures and document almost everything. I make a million posts on my Facebook about MY life (because that's what Facebook is for?) to share with others.

But there are some people that post statuses to other people who are on their Facebook, lol. Did y'all graduate from junior high yet? If you're leaving some snide comment or posting up a nasty status aimed at one person or a few selected people, I got one word for you. Pathetic. And I got two more. Grow up.

I mean, mature people would probably think of resolving their issue by either talking to the person on the phone or in person rather than Facebooking it. But hey, if you're one of those Facebook oriented people who believe posting about their issues makes you a bigger person,  then at least have the balls to tag me in it, lol (irony inteded!) And if someone comments asking them what it's all about, they say... "Nothing, it's personal." Well, if it's that personal, then why the hell did you make a public announcement of it?

And then there are others who actually react to these statuses of their Facebook friends by posting a status of their own, "You need to grow up and say shit to my face." Oh, what irony! LOL.

And if someone is gonna come up to me tomorrow and comment on this post about keeping my nose out of their business... let me tell you something, if you don't want people to be in your business, don't post it on your STATUS!

I am usually not the one who wastes words and energy on people who don't deserve it. And like my mom has taught me, "Ek chup, 100 sukh!" Amen to this Punjabi phrase. Because sometimes, the greatest strength is to be the bigger person and say nothing at all to people who always try to mention you in some way or the other. But hey, it must mean that you are fond of me to have me on your mind always!

So, this post is to all the people who want to confront others by posting snide things about others - grow a pair. And then say it to the person's face. And don't just say your crap and leave. Manners suggest that you should also hear what they have to say about you and then meet a common resolution and get the hell out of there. Saves you so much time and trouble. Life is way too short to give a shit about people who bring you down with petty things such as a Facebook status. I've seen people get married and have babies and grow into their 30s, but their mentality.... oh boy, it just isn't there to match their passport age. I just figured this needed to be said. Goodnight everyone =)

  1. But didn't you post something about girls who expect their guy friends to pay when they go out? Wasn't that pointed towards someone? Don't get me wrong, to each their own really. Different people use facebook for different things, and that's their own choice. So that's why I would say no point in criticizing. Just live and let live instead of being critical for these petty matters I guess.

  2. Hey... yes you're right. In fact when I was writing this post, I knew that someone will definitely point out that post. It in my case, that was a rant. The person it was directed to doesn't know me and isnt on my Facebook. I 've never met her but if she was someone I knew, she'd be hearing it from me and not reading about it guessing whether it's her that I am talking about. And that was exactly the point i was trying to make :)
