Stop Pretending!

Stop pretending that you are someone you are not is some of the best advice I can give someone. I am so tired of all the bullshit that people say and do because they can hide behind an online identity. I’m not talking about all the trolls or people that intentionally lie to stir up flame wars, etc. I am talking about the average person who goes online and blogs. They start pretending that their life is great, that they are so intriguing, and that they are so knowledgeable when they don’t know shit. It truly is pathetic.

Since I’m calling out these assholes, I have created a list for them to become human again, instead of the carbon-copy piece of shit they are right now. This is by no means a final list; this is just a starting point.

  1. Stop acting like you are an authority on a subject just because you read a book about it. Reading about something and living through it or experiencing it is a huge difference.
  2. Stop thinking that just because you type something it makes it so. It doesn’t.
  3. Stop crying like a little bitch when someone calls you out on your shit. Admit when you are wrong. It’s the adult thing to do. Better yet, if you don’t know about something, don’t talk about it to begin with.
  4. Stop acting like your life is better than mine. They both suck.
  5. Stop believing your own shit. I know this is hard since you’ve been lying to yourself for so long. Try it. It won’t hurt… much.
  6. Stop making someone else feel bad about who they are or what they like. Everyone is different and if you don’t like me, the least you can do is respect me. Respect: Learn it, Live it, LOVE IT.
  7. Stop photo-shopping your own pictures to make you look better. I don’t care what you look like and if I did, I’d be as shallow as you.
  8. Stop believing your views are the only correct ones. Opinions are like assholes & everyone has one. Also, don’t assume. You do know what assume means don’t you?
  9. Stop acting like a ignorant twat and grow up. If you want someone to take you serious, don’t act like a child. It’s insulting to me and insulting to children.
  10. Stop pretending that while you are reading this that none of it applies to you. While it may not, 9/10 blogs I read are full of shit and are a waste of my time.

I know that you, my beloved reader, know of at least one blog owner who should read this list. If you want to, please copy and paste this list wherever you feel.

If this post applies to you, tough titty, said the kitty but the milk’s still good! ;)
