Red Hot Rant: Finally, something worth Bitching about!

[Jawa]

A friend brought something on Facebook to my attention. Apparantly, the Learning Community I was in in College decided to get together and make a page dedicated to ME. A group called 'I survived XXXX-XXXXXXX' (XXXX being my real name)

Thankfully, I keep who I am at school and who I am elsewhere in two completeley seperate pots. But yeah; Comments from this ranged from 'Oh, I've seen him outside of class, on 'To Catch a Predator' , and stuff along those lines.


What pisses me off... is that these Fucking PUKES were in the SAME CLASSES AS I WAS. This was in 2008, But learning that you were the Ass of a facebook Joke... even between twenty people... TWENTY PEOPLE you are supposed to FUCKING TRUST...

I kept in contact with one of em, and told em about my discovery. He said it was old, and he stayed away from those pricks (well; NOW he does... har-har) , and after trolling it for a bit, I reported EVERYTHING on that page... because... I found out I could do that, and then, it dissappeared 30 seconds into reporting Titles topics and wall-posts.

I assume the man in charge of the group got banned as well, but this spiteful motherfucker can only hope for so much.
I honestly thought this was College, not Highschool. I thought I left behind all the Meathead Jocks and Airhead-Cheerleaders, and all the Fred Joneses that were Voted 'Most likeley to Succeed by sucking your cock'.

Know that I am many things; a Pariah, a Pervert, a Pirate, an Artist, An Idiot, a Savant...Whatever I am; and whatever I become, know this; I will NEVER, EVER.... EVER talk about any of you lot behind your backs, or say anything I couldn't say to your face (... or in the chatroom... because I know none of you... IRL... I digress) , that I couldn't back up, with facts or fists. as a friend or otherwise.

So yeah; What's worse is that none of these Twenty Fucks fessed up to it.

So, as a topic of discussion, have you ever had anyone talk shit about you behind your back? Twenty someones? even MORE?

nope can't say i do , never had that or known bout it , only some boss issues.

Shit happens. You've a right to be mad and I'm glad that the group got deleted and all that, but not every cheerleader is an airhead and vice versa and not every jock is a meathead. Saying so, makes you look just as ignorant as the people who participated in that group.

 

[Journia]

Oi....I've had whole neighborhoods talk about me. It doesn't feel good at all, I'll tell you that much and you're right to be a bit miffed. And I never tlk about others behind their back either, because, come on....its just text. Unless they've done some non verbal action to back up the ugliness. And there are a few who've done that to me, whom I'll not name, but they know who they are. So, don't worry about them. Pretty much that's all I can say.

I'm having a major hot flash..does that count as a rant? and i wonder if it makes facebook or those other my space thingies...

 

[Dave2112]

This is the problem with stuff like Facebook, etc...and all that our culture has come to offer up to it. People are forgetting (if they ever learned) real-life social interaction guidelines and common sense, and adopting electronic ones.

People seem to just not give a shit anymore about each other when they can possibly get some little jolt of immediate gratification at your expense.

Be above it. You were right to complain and have it pulled, considering the privacy issues. But, other than that...just be above it.

It would be nice if the social archetypes of the airhead cheerleader and meathead jock ended in highschool, but alas, they often don't. (And I didn't really see Jevil paint "all" people like that with the same brush, just that these fit the type, so I don't think he's got ignorance to worry about.)

Dude, it's the human race...the larger portion of them are fairly primitive...just roll with it. Good rant, though.

It's amazing how much 'guts' people get when they think they can hide behind the internet and the PC screen. MDJ had to deal with idiots like that through high school comparing her to her druggie older sister. Now, most of those same classmates are on spouse #3, broke or in financial turmoil, or are sucking down beer every weekend crying over their 'glory days' a la the Springsteen song. When we went to her class reunion, she laughed to me how many of them were losers. She even prefers my class reunions to hers!

My point? Losers will always be out there. You did the right thing. Out-class them and be above them. Be as genuine with them as you are with us. I act the same way on line as I would talking to anyone here face to face. Be you. Be the piratey dog and raid their treasures after they fall flat on their face. Let time be your avenger, it's a much sweeter weapon and it's more relentless than the ghost of Davy Jones.

it goes back to the saying which I first heard from my dearly departed grand dad"once an asshole always an asshole" but yeah, i've had people talk shit behind my back. Still do in fact, currently have actually. Yeah, turns out oneof my best friends has been lying to me for like a year and a half about actually being my friend. I've just been a crutch, therapist, ATM and the like...

...actually. Yeah, turns out oneof my best friends has been lying to me for like a year and a half about actually being my friend. I've just been a crutch, therapist, ATM and the like...

That sucks. I used to have "user" friends (who weren't friends at all).

Hawk - Great points to ponder!

Jevil - Good on ya for blowing the whistle on those lamers!
