Tumblr > Facebook

So I just deactivated my Facebook account. Why? Because for several reasons actually.

1. Facebook is just complicated these days. Remember when it was cool? And all you did was update a status and poke people? Yes, those were the days. Or how awesome of a feeling was it when you got a piece of flair from someone?! But now you have no clue what is a current update, and you can share things. Excuse me, did you say share things? Yes, yes I did. You know that thing we love to do on Tumblr called “Reblog”? Well now, you can do it Facebook and to be honest…it’s kinda lame.

2. Facebook is for people who need social recognition. The status update has become a competition of creativity, wit, and intelligence. Ignorant people post quotes by authors of whom they never had read their work. They try to sound smart and be intellectual when in all reality, they aren’t. You may say, wow that is harsh. And to some degree it is, but it’s still true. Another ways people have to get their “Likes” is by checking in at Starbucks or some other popular establishment and then they caption it with, “Mmm…I love my pumpkin spice latte!! yummy yummy yummmm!!” Since when did you think it was cool to sound like you’re from the Real Housewives?

3. This is going to sound major lame but we are ALL guilty of it and that is…having to see your ex with someone else. Don’t judge, we all do it. And we all know how much it sucks to see that person you loved with all your heart all over someone else. And then they write on each others walls about how great they are? Please do me a favor and stop twisting the knife in my back which you placed there!!

You may be reading this and thinking, wow…this kid sounds like a hater! And maybe I am, but you still have to agree that these are all valid reasons. I would post my reasons as to why I love Tumblr but the list could go on and on. I will briefly state that I do love it here. Tumblr is like a community for all of us socially awkward people who are aren’t the life of a party, aren’t on the top of the dating list, but we do have the brightest imaginations in the world. It’s a place where I feel like I can post anything and everything without being judged. It’s a place where I have met people and established friendships that I consider closer then those I have known my whole life.

So yes, Tumblr > Facebook

Pet Peeves….The things that haunt me day and night.

Pet peeves. We all have them and some more then others. I tend to be on the more then others side. As one person once said, ” I dont have pet peeves, I have kennels of irritations.” Very well put! So many people out there are just so annoying. Or they do annoying things. And I’m just like, when will it end?! So now, I would like to share some of my pet peeves. Some of those things that drive me up the wall. Maybe you can relate. Or maybe you are one of those people who are perfectly patient and never get annoyed. If so, I applaud you. BUT if you are like me, I hope you enjoy.

1. I shouldnt be able to hear you eat. Some people sound like a horse eating an apple and it literally drives me crazy. If I am in the same room and this horrid action is taking place, I will get up and leave. You’re food isnt going anywhere! You dont get more flavor from it by chomping on it harder so PLEASE STOP!!

2. When guys think they are the hottest thing ever. Ya know, that guy who feels it necessary to wear a hemp necklace, plaid shorts, and some Abercrombie graphic tee. Or that guy that knocks you over with the smell of his cheap Axe body spray. Or maybe even that guy who when he poses for pictures feels he has to look like Lil Wayne and be all gangster. Yea, that guy. Please do us all a favor and go lick a power outlet.

3. Girls on Tumblr who think they are ugly and meanwhile I am sitting there thinking, YOU ARE GORGEOUS!!

4. Politics. I have conservative morals but I am not going to sit back and point my finger like a 2nd grader at Democrats. I also dont think Republicans have all the answers. So I just stay clear of politics because they drive me crazy.

5. Facebook. What happened to being able to just see your friends pictures and everyone be all happy? Now its like, arguing and competition. Lame! I have better things to do with myself.

6. Girls at concerts who are only there to hook up with boys. Seriously? An amazing band is on stage playing awesome music and you’re trying to hit on me?! Please, just sing the songs with them at the top of your lungs and I will think you are beyond amazing. The annoying, ” OMG I love this song!!” and then you dont sing any of the words? Kinda gets really old. Really fast.

I think is fair to assume that we are often surrounded by idiots. Thats when I get on Tumblr and talk to you guys because ya’ll are awesome and I wish more then anything we could hang out in real life! :)
