Well...
THIS will be the LAST time I ever try to tell a friend that they need to stop rambling on and on about the SAME DAMN THINGS ALL THE FREAKIN' TIME!
Have you ever had...or do have...a friend who you can't stand to read their blog or talk to them in person/via phone anymore because they have such a one-track mind that their discussion is always about the same topic? You can't seem to steer them into a different subject because they revert back to their original one? This is the sort of thing I grow tired of. Yes, I admit I can talk a lot about my fave sport, but I also mix it up by posting about different things in my life as well. I talk about work, about things I've seen or done (or both sometimes), and yes, post pix now and then. The friend I am referring to CONSTANTLY spams MySpace and Facebook bulletins with the SAME DAMN TOPIC ALL THE TIME. I get to the point where I wish both MS and FB would create a conversation wall by filter where friends who like her same stupid topic can post to their hearts' content and others like me who don't want to read the same drivel all the time won't have to see it. Go the way of LJ and create filters with different topics. Also, I feel FB needs to have an ignore user/appear as offline filter-type deal for their instant messenger, so if you see someone you'd rather NOT talk to/hear from come online while you're chatting away with another friend who you DO want to hear from, then you can keep yourself from unpleasant conversations with the person you'd rather chat with at another time...does this make sense to any of you, my friends?
I know I shouldn't complain too much, as I adore each of my friends in general, just it gets tiring rehashing the same crap with them. It gets to the point where their actions and conversations make it to where you want nothing to do with the person. Rather than be rude, you keep quiet instead of speaking your mind, for fear that person will start a war with you and make you feel terrible, upset, or even spiteful and sometimes friendships get severed over petty crap. This friend I am referring to is a mutual friend of me and another friend and the other friend is too afraid to speak her mind to this person in question and tell that person that she's even had enough of hearing the same old garbage out of her. Not me, I stuck up for myself and let the person in question have it in a conversation via Facebook. I'd had enough and felt it was time to get it out in the open and put to rest before I really blew my cork. Now the person in question is being very stupid, immature, and ridiculous...she changed her FB profile picture to one with that little blond boy flipping the bird (you know, the picture you see Photoshopped a million times over to feature him flipping that finger over hatred for a variety of things, usually amongst sports fans and their teams)..I feel that is just acting like a toddler in general and it's a need for the person to grow up and get over themself!
Okay, now, after reading this, tell me what you would do or would have done in this particular situation. I would like to hear what YOU have to say!
