friday funnies

Something that I think is funny now-a-days is seeing my girlfriends post super passive-aggressive comments on social media - I literally laugh for a minute, and then get kind of sad. Sure, I've been there... we were all in our 20's at one point, amiright? However, I believe that was a phase I grew out of. Kind of wish everyone around me would, too. When I was the ripe age of 25 I was dating a super attractive, super talented man. I had definitely won the partner-looks-lottery, as the guy I was dating was that attractive. I had not quite come to the reality of knowing that what I was posting online was kinda there permanently, also my words were there for everyone to read. Said super-attractive guy and I would disagree on things, I would get upset, post some stupid passive aggressive cluster of words online, and not think twice. Well, not until his sister-in-law would then read, misinterpret, and then find it necessary to explain to said super-attractive-guy what she thought I said. Does that make sense? Ok, good. Moral of that story is, if you don't want to be misinterpreted - or look like a complete asshole - you should probably refrain from posting passive aggressive comments on social media. Its just that simple.

Sure it happens from time-to-time- you just have to let the internet know you're having a bad day, or you just really want the internet to know that you do not agree with so-and-so's marriage, or that you cannot believe what "someone who will remain nameless" said to you the other night. It happens, I get it. But maybe the internet shouldn't get it.. maybe that should have been a phone call to your bestie, or a text to the person who will relentlessly listen to you complain about every aspect of life (also known as your pabf- passive aggressive best friend). Whoever the human is you are telling about the issues - they are much better at receiving these messages versus the internet. Just a thought :)

Happy Friday!
