Dramatic Face Book/myspace/twitter

So lets just say that I am a firm believer in thanking those who have helped you out in your life, and I also believe if you are unhappy with something in your life change it. Now I understand that you cannot always change your surroundings, your circumstance or your luck but at the same time, I feel like some people are just incapable of being satisfied with that they have been given.

For instance, if I see another person write about how pathetically sad they are to be single I may scream. Being single is not the end of the world, or worth jumping of the nearest bridge. This may come as a shock to some, but there are people that enjoy being single and are able to make the best of that. I really feel as though if your largest problem in life is being single than you are lucky. Oh and PS if you never leave your house and play on the internet all day you more than likely are not going to be meeting anyone. Just a thought.

It really irritates me that people complain about their "Crappy" friends. Guess what, you chose those friends. I'm sorry that not wanting to babysit for you every weekend, or drink with you and mope about life makes me a terrible friend. Perhaps some people do not want to share in your sappy "Woe is me" pity parade. Contrary to popular belief I am not your personal nanny here to serve your needs as a place to drop off your screaming child every weekend so you might be able to drink a few beers at the bar with your friends who happen to feel that drowning in a yeast beverage will fix the deployment your husband is on. I have to admit that deployments suck, but it isn't my job to watch your children for 12 months. If I offer that is a much different story (I have offered to a few times for various people and their R&R's and such, but not weekly) but when you ask me and I say "No" immediately posting on your FB about how "Crappy" your friends are and that no one is there when you need them I think you are being the crappy friend....... Really, aren't we being a tad overkill on the poor friend thing. Now if you chop off your legs, and need a ride to the ER and I say no, then feel free to post that.

I'm getting increasingly annoyed with people that live rent free, in their parents home. Their parents babysit for them for free, and pay for their college and all their bills and they have the Gaul to say so many negative things about their parents because they want you to watch your child after school. Really? I am extremely thankful for my family and they don't do all that for me. You can't just say thank you? After all that is your child. I mean if my Mom were watching my child from 9am to 6pm so I could drive the car she pays for to the classes she is paying for you better bet that my rear end would be home at 6pm to watch MY child. Your Mom didn't get herself pregnant, and you are collecting child support to be that little girls Mom so what are you so incapable of just doing your job? Maybe your Mom should just file for custody so you can go and party and live carefree right? I mean is she being so unreasonable to ask you to come home after class and do what you are obligated to do? Why don't you try living in the real world were no one else pays our bills, if I want to go to college it is my obligation to pay for it, and if I want to go to class my child care is going to run about $244 every 2 weeks. Want to trade, because I am sure my Mom could straighten you out some about what being a responsible parent means.

Well there was my rant about the Status updates I just signed in to see. Don't get me wrong, my status today is "I don't feel to well" but I think some people are getting a little dramatic here. At 20 + years old I would think the real world would be a little more sour than these being your largest problems. You want to talk about problems, I will hook you up with some people that can tell you about problems. I've known wounded soldiers that are more thankful that 90% of these people, and those soldiers have lost limbs and suffered severe brain injury. If you are unhappy with your job, finances, love life and other things then maybe YOU should take that initiative to change things. Posting things on facebook about your pathetic situations and "Horrible" life just makes me laugh. I refuse to be the goody bag at your pity party.
