people these days

being that whether we like it or not, notice or not, we tend to seek attention from other people in our own ways. be it elaborately or with hidden meanings so as to not be so blatant about it. and the technology these days are supporting these actions even more by providing us with medias(?) to rant on.

blogs and that blasted twitter (fyi: a friend told me that indonesia is the 2nd country with the most active twitter accounts. even more proof that my country is pathetically beyond latah. for them i weep..no, scratch that. i'll just enjoy their stupidity from afar) some being private, but most are open for public consumption. mostly for sharing purpose, but these days its more used for attention-seeking purposes. from plainly expressing, hidden meaning messages hoping for others to respond or sympathize, to those angsty and blatantly asking for sympathy.

on one hand, i kind of feel sorry for whatever they're going through (however light or worse the case is, it's always going to be hard for the one facing it, so i'm not one to judge),
but on the other hand, enough already.
it's tiring to bump into one of your rants, or when you've finally avoid it altogether, you get slapped in the face with them in person ranting of self-centered-ly.

yes, if you end up with people who can just brush you off easily, but what about those who are just genuinely too nice for their own good and can't say 'no'?
you all are assholes for using these people to satisfy your own ego.
most don't even care about the others story (duh.). the type that 'asks' a question to the others, only to get the topic running and make it 'seem' as a 'universal topic' when it's actually just them trying to slip in their own story and make it all about them, completely ignoring other peoples 'sharing'.
(it's even uncommon for them if they dont cut other peoples sentences in putting in their 'important' oh so heartbreaking recent breakup drama. tut tut.). yawn. classic bastards.

but in an ironic way, i've got to thank these attention-seeking whores, because if it weren't for them to 'reflect' on, i probably would be one of them, or even when i do need to rant or be an attention seeking person, it wont be too obvious because of those god-level-of-angst people. hahahaha
