This is for all you drama lovers:
Why..WHY must you tell everyone about what’s going on in your personal life?? Its’ really not anyone’s business in the first place, but you insist on updating your statuses filled with your drama. You are obviously looking for someone to give you their opinion but when they do, you flip out if its not what you want to hear!!! It doesn’t make any sense if you ask me.. why bother? Must be because you just love it so much!! You end up losing friends all because you told us your life story and your friends be honest with you about what they think. Well drama Queens and Kings, it’s a shame to see you waste so much time sharing your drama with everyone and not doing something about it instead!! What a miserable life you are living!! I’m so done trying to help you with your problems, it’s a waste of my time and my breath!! Enjoy your drama filled lifes! The day your realize you screwed things up it’s going to be too late !
—Give your head a shake!

I guess I’m one of these people… I’ve had some things happen over the years that I vent about every now and then… I think most of my friends understand it’s a coping mechanism and just a way to blow off some steam. I’d really hope none of them are so uptight that they think they are required to comment or even care what any of my status messages say… have they been elevated to a new stature that I wasn’t notified about?
Anyway, on behalf of someone who has had drama and has occasionally vented about it on facebook… I am sorry.
I suggest Drama Dreck wear a sandwich board that reads: ‘I’M TOO FUCKING NEEDY’.
I had an ex like this, they would put ABSOLUTELY everything in their msn name and statuses, such as:
“got food poisoning again lol”
“Im so depressed”
“[insert some other random chick’s name here] is the coolest person ever and my girlfriend isn’t, she won’t put out and wears childish t-shirts instead of slutty clothes”
I could go on but it’s making me sick just thinking about this person. I also had this friend who was super needy and always needed attention. She would make her statuses something like:
“I want to cut so bad” although she used scissors and would only go deep enough to make a small red mark
“I’m so fat I wish I looked like this [posts a picture of a severely anerixic girl on her death-bed]” then her friends would post things like “are you serious?! you’re not fat and that’s disgusting, you’re beautiful” and then she would change her status to “my friends are so mean to me, they always put me down and make me feel like shit”.
There’s really nothing you can do about these people except ignore them.
I love these people… They’re entertaining; and when you give them advice that they cry about, tell them to shut up, and if they DON’T take your advice, then you can say “I told you so”
It’s a win-win with drama queens!
Hey I’ve got a few dramatic stories- what’s wrong with telling them? Put the right spin on it and they make people laugh! For example, since Thursday I’ve been telling all my friends about how I just found out that someone back in Canada has stolen my identity and gotten a $26,000 car loan in my name for a BMW (my foreign passport and every piece of CDN ID I had were stolen a few years back when I first came abroad) I’m being dead serious- this is true. But you know, maybe they can take over payment of my student loans too!
Facebook is a way for people to advertise their bullshit, that’s what it’s made for. Unnessacary sharing of what’s going on in people’s personal lives. That’s why I don’t use it. People don’t need to know my shit and I don’t want to know theres. I’d suggest you do the same before you too get caught up in the bullshit. Although, you already seem quite dramatic yourself OB.
My chips are too crispy !
My beers to cold !
Face crack…lol… why go there, when you can come here & get a great laugh 😉
