Why I Hate People

Kinda like a one-way mirror

I was reading a friend’s blog post which was detailing the various pros and cons of Facebook, that time devouring pseudo-stalker site that poses as a way to keep in touch with your friends.

One of her points was that you can totally keep tabs on your friends without ever having to speak to them. Now, I have been kind of dealing with something like that since I started blogging, as a lot of my friends seem to be lurkers, reading this without ever noting that they do so… which leads to many conversations where I start a story, and then rather quickly get shot down with a "yeah, I was reading that."


Now, I'm not complaining, as I'm an attention whore, and will gladly deal with some weird inter-personal moments in exchange for knowing that people actually read this stuff I pump out. And really, I tend to take a little more care with stuff when I'm writing, so you're probably getting a better version of the story, or the thought, or whatever if you read it here....

I think this was another one of those poorly conceived posts that I started without any real point that I wanted to make, just a matter of something on my mind that I needed to get out.
