I miss using my blog. I love my forum – we have a blast there- but I love my blog, too. *Hugs my bloggy-blog* Anyway, I haven’t laid down a good old-fashioned rant in a while, and though I said I’d stop using my blog for personal shit, fuck it. It’s MY blog, am I right? lol.
Anyway, I hate sheeple. If you’re not familiar with the term, it’s a derogatory reference for people that just follow people/sites/places/things blindly. They have no true facts to back anything up, and they don’t have a true “cause”, and they don’t even know what the fuck they’re talking about most of the time. They talk because they need to be heard. You know the type.
They butt into your A and B conversation with unwanted, unnecessary bullshit because they want to be seen. They’re not offering anything useful because they don’t even know what you’re talking about. They just want to jump in and create drama for the sake of it, or because they’re bored, or stupid, or nosy, or whatever.
I’m a leader, not a follower. I always have been. I go against the grain all the time if it suits me and what I want to achieve. I care about people, and I will go out of my way to help or be supportive to a deserving person, but I’ll give an asshole my ass to kiss in a moment, usually by way of ignoring them. The internet gives people the luxury of being anonymous, but they use their anonymity to be pricks for no apparent reason other than internet pats on the back. *snort* Seriously? Get over yourself and your high schooler’s need to be accepted amongst your peers. It’s sad and laughable.
Is this about fandom? Not really. It’s a horse of a different color, but the overall pomposity of it is the same. People are obnoxious idiots most of the time. I mean, you think they are at first glance, but then they start talking and remove all fucking doubt. Butt-in-ski’s and bandwagon jumpers, in particular. I just can’t bring myself to care enough or be rude enough, to get all into something that has jackshit to do with me, especially with strangers. My time is too valuable. Sorry.
Now, on to other things!
I haven’t been writing, at least not very much. I have some health stuff going on and my head simply isn’t where it needs to be to achieve anything substantial. That’s why I have a new poll up. I’ve been thinking about those stories, in particular, and would like to update something that will garner a nice response. I mean, I love most of my fics and I’m going to finish them eventually whether anyone leaves a review or not, but I like making people happy when I can, so I want to update something that will do that until I have more time in my schedule and I’m feeling better able to write consistently again. Keep in mind, though, that the chapters will continue to be fairly short, especially right now when I’m under the weather. So vote, babes!
In other, other news!
I watched the BET awards on my DVR, and wow, I didn’t expect them to be so much fun! I’m not big on hip-hop, but I do like some songs and really took a liking to “Hands Up” by DJ Khaled, who closed out the show with a slew of guests, including T-Pain, Puffy and Busta Rhymes, and I had a blast. Even ran it back a few times.
But the highlight of the show was, of course, Chris Brown’s MJ tribute. That boy tore it APART, trust me on that. He broke down in tears by the end, though, during “Man in the Mirror” and the audience just loved it –so did I. It pisses me off that people are trying to say he faked that, used “eye drops” and other dumb shit. Look, get over that Rhianna bullshit. She’s busy man-hopping, so apparently, she’s definitely over it. But more to the point, he made a mistake, he’s paying for that mistake, and if people can forgive R. Kelly for pissing on children, I think a 21 year old kid (19 at the time) who lost his temper and fucked up can get a little break.
None of us were there when it went down, so we don’t know what set him off. People need to chill and let it lie. Now, am I condoning? Oh HELL no. I’m not a Rhianna or Chris Brown fan, but I am a woman, and what he did was fucking stupid and the lumps he took were deserved. But it’s been over a year, he’s kept his nose clean, he did whatever it was the judge told him to do in terms of punishment -leave it alone already.
And in closing…
I started a new diet and lost 20lbs. <.< That shit wasn't easy, either! And I miss cake! Wah! How about some Yasha? This chick is amazing! Her name is HitokiriSakura2012 and you can find her works on Deviant Art. her use of color is just awing.
