Telling The Internet All of Your Business Is Always BAD Business by Nova Giovanni
Hello, misguided people of the online world. I’d like to thank you for
volunteering all of your most personal business and making the
internet more interesting than any soap opera. You are most likely the
reason All My Children has been canceled. Obviously, some of you are confused by Facebook (and other sites) referring to the people you’ve given access to your account as ‘friends’. For the sake of knowledge, lets explore what a friend is.
According to Dictionary.com a ‘Friend’ is.
Friend – (noun)
1. a person attached to another by feelings of affection or personal regard.
2. a person who gives assistance; patron; supporter.
Now, take a moment and ask yourself, “Myself… how many of my ‘online
buddies’ are REALLY my FRIENDS?”… Then, subtract that number from the total quantity of people linked to you through the internet – and you will be left with the amount of people laughing at you and your
problems.
WE DON’T CARE that you were cheated on. WE DON’T CARE that your child got an ‘F’ on their report card. WE DON’T CARE that your landlord is threatening to evict you again. WE DON’T CARE about your heart being broken – REPAIR IT, OR GO GET A NEW ONE!!! WE… DON’T… CARE!!! We’re pointing our fingers at you. Yes, and we’re laughing. Laughing a good laugh from the depths of our souls.
As soon as you have an argument or issue with the person you’re
dating, a family member, or problems with other people- you flee to the online world to vent. That’s a damn shame. There is no better way to get through those complications than good communication. But, your desperation for attention from strangers is hurting your relations.
It’s a shame that without any hesitation, you run online and tell everyone your whole situation.
Don’t be surprised when the personal information you disclose to the public world comes back to bite you in your ass. For every ONE person empathizing with your plea for help, there are FOUR more laughing at you. Shaking their heads, calling other people, sharing what your newest online updates – and celebrating your troubles. If no one has ever told you this, “loose lips sink ships”. In 2011, so do loose
fingertips. Keep your private matters as they should be – PRIVATE.
I Love You,
