I am a pretty big fan of the internet. For an autodidact and information junky like myself it is great. For someone who loves getting to write out thoughts and musings it is also great but it has some drawbacks. I don’t want to claim it’s made us assholes but it’s probably made us bigger assholes. Or at least it has gone a ways to make sure we’re less embarrassed about being assholes. I am of course talking about the ridiculous levels of hate I see spewed around the internet. So many of my followers and people I follow… I look at their blog and there are just so many people saying hateful things for no reason (always anon because come on, you’re already a coward if you’re using the internet for this, why not be a super coward and be completely anonymous instead of pseudo anonymous. I would call you pussies but it doesn’t feel right, I like pussies, I dislike you people). Of course, I feel like celebrity fandom was already rife with this, people love to hate famous people and see them fail. And I get it, I get all of it, it isn’t like I’ve never fallen victim to all of this. I get it. And there can even be a place for talking about what you don’t like, certainly a critical discussion is fine, a lively debate with friends, but just to tear something down someone else cares about because they care about it. It’s all too common so I am going to give you a life lesson that will really help. Really. It will make your life and the lives of those who have to deal with you better. It is simply this: If you don’t like something it is ok to shut the fuck up about and go enjoy something you do like. Which brings me to Katy Perry, who every time I post (or used to post, this has stopped since I turned off anon questions) people would tell me she was a whore, or ugly, or most often a ‘fake ass Gaga’. You guys are welcome to your opinion. Honestly you’re welcome to share it with me, I’m not offended, she’s no my sister or anything (thank god, that would make this weird) but I feel like if you feel that way you would probably enjoy life more listening to Lady Gaga than telling a stranger how dumb they are for liking Katy Perry’s boobs. So you guys go do what you want, me I am going to sit here and think about how today I want to fuck Katy Perry.
