A Cure For Wednesdays

People: The Tumblr Edition

Before I got Tumblr (Ok, I know it is a little early for my own interjection but the Literacy Nazi inside myself cannot fathom the rationality behind removing the E from tumbler. I don’t find it “hip” or easy to relate to. It makes it seem like a tacky parental site.) I used to complain about the types of people that use it and why I will not be getting it anytime soon.

Obviously I caved and etc

So why am I complaining now? Because I found that many people use it as a facebook with more nipples.

1) “Like my Status” is replaced with “Reblog if you …”

Posting pictures of dead/dying kids/animals and trying to guilt trip people to reblog to show support is not going to do shit. Saying “Reblog this if you support gay marriage” is not going to legalize it. Go to a rally, petition your local representative, lobby something or other. No one cares about your fucking reblog of it. I’m in Australia and I sure as hell know Julia Gillard is not going to look at my blog and go “Hmm This freakishly cute metro teen thinks we need gay marriage why the fuck not and at the same time why don’t I reblog this cos I like unicorns in mosh shorts”

2) “My blog is full of pictures of the ocean with inspirational lyrics and other quotes to bolster self esteem” Upload GPOY with caption “I’m so ugly”

Look, if you’re going to contradict yourself to the point where your personal blog is going to be lying to everyone who goes on it. Then go back to bebo and your hawthorne heights cds.

3) I’m going to reblog everything cos I haven’t had an original thought since deciding whether to download beiber or one direction first (both suck. Go rape your ears with whale cock it will be less painful)

This was the main reason i procrastinated getting tumblr was because I was under the assumption everyone just reblogged everything. Honestly for the main part I was right. With the exception of friends if you’re blog is just pictures off someone elses you might as well play in traffic.

4) Porn Porn Porn

This annoys me cause there isn’t enough ;)

5) My blog is just couples and pretty girls all with the caption “I wish this was me”

Honestly if this website is upsetting you because of all pictures of pretty people go play neopets or WOW because that way you can kill the prettier things. Posting those photos up with the aforementioned caption is just desperate. If I wanted to put up with that much cheesy angst I would listen to All Time Low (Also Suck)

I’m not quite sure how I got to this point because I feel I lost my fluency and diction but in general. If your blog is going to be a fake representation of yourself and just an attention whore of cyberspace laced in pity, go breastfeed a starving piranha.

Fuck You
