I have a few minutes so I am going to give you a quick list of shit that needs to stop immediately. These are things that are really inexcusable for people unless you are idiotic morons who dropped out the first grade. I am not saying you’re stupid… You are, but I’m not saying it. Anyway…
Stop Signing Bad Deals
Unless you’re a minor whose parent(s) or legal guardian signed the deal on your behalf, more than likely, you made the conscious choice to agree to the terms. I mean it’s an agreement. Think of it as consensual sex. You agreed to get fucked. There are millions of lawyers and even more people who understand the English language so even if you didn’t comprehend the terms, you could have gotten help. The truth is you thought it was worth it at the time and you don’t want to take responsibility for making such a poor decision. Unless you were allegedly hung over a railing like Vanilla Ice or a victim of Big Red of The Five Heartbeats (Respect those office hours), it’s your fault no matter you spin it. This leads to the next one.
Stop Defending Toxicity
When you know something is wrong, acknowledge it. But whatever you do, resist the temptation to defend it. Only pedophiles defend pedophilia and only abusive men defend men who inflict violence on women. Sure, you may not act on those urges, but deep inside of your cowardice heart, you have the same values. If you don’t, why would you defend it? Be honest. If you’d want violent retribution if someone did these things to your family, you should understand that every woman is member of someone’s family. If you don’t, you are part of the problem.
This also applies to stupidity as well. If you know something is dumb, call it for what it is.
Stop Blowing Opportunities
Over the last year, I have given several people the very opportunities they reached out and said they wanted, only for them to ruin it. No one should have to remind you to do something you want to do. Furthermore, the moment you can’t do what you say, you should communicate it immediately— so as to not make things worse or inconvenience others. But not these people… Not only do they fail to follow through, but they also don’t even bother to give the person who put them on a heads-up. It’s insane to me. And they wonder why I no longer fuck with them… Now you know.
Stop Telling Social Media Your Personal Shit
Even though I am oft prolific when it comes to posting on Facebook, I definitely don’t share personal stuff. A lot of people post their personal or relationships online, forgetting that doing so affords others the opportunity to judge and offer critique. Even worse, they have the nerves to get mad that people for minding their business after choosing to share it. Once you post it on social media, your business becomes everyone’s business. It’s a public platform.
If it’s a sensitive matter — meaning you are going to be sensitive or all in your feelings over it– keep it yourself. The harsh reality is that most of the people who follow or friend us on social don’t give a fuck. Talk to your friends or family members in real life.
