Social Media made me hate you.

Wednesday, July 9, 2014

Before I start this rant, let me just begin with contradicting myself. I love "meeting" new people from blogging. I love that they blog about their lives and give you a sneak peek of what's going on in their lives. Lifestyle blogs make me happy.

That being said, people I used to really like in "real life", drive me nuts on social media. I think it is mainly because I like their public persona (you know the ones with manners and a filter?). In real life someone might seem some what educated, but they certainly don't proove that in their social media life. For example, they type in Ebonics or slang for everything "fo sho, lbvs, smh", if I have to google what the hell your status means, you are probably on my list of people I think are douche bags in social media life.

The next person I've decided I can't stand on social media, the selfie queen. Now, don't get me wrong, you could go through my phone or snap chats and see a million selfies, but I DO NOT post every single one. Nor do I make videos of myself and post them (my newest pet peeve, no one wants to see you chewing your food).

Next up, the victim. something is always wrong with you, and of course its never your fault. We know you in  real life, so we know there is nothing wrong with you, and if there is, it is your fault.

I know there is a ton of post out there describing the type of people on your news feed, and that's not what I'm trying to do. I'm just saying, if you I accept your friend request or start "following" you on social media, that probably means I like you, don't change that because you're an obnoxious over sharer on social media. Am I the only one who feels this way?
