Things I Dislike: The Overdone Facebook Sex Culture

One of the things I like to principle myself on is to be as real as possible, both to myself and to others.  I strive to be my own creative individual no matter what, even if it is the wrong way out of stuff.  In that way I can never fail and gain everything at the same time, which is something all these kids don’t understand.  One of the many parts of this relates to pictures.

It seems that all the internet sites, especially Facebook/Instragam, thrives on a culture where excessive fakeness if considered mandatory.  This is a large contrast to three years ago when Facebook exploded with my generation. It was really a wonderful time because the site was so awesome compared to the primitive sites like My Space (While I liked MS, it was not as advanced as FB was.)   We could do what we wanted to do with it because it was all still new, and we made it our own. But yet it’s gone all to hell since then due to the many “trends” of these days.

One notable one is to post useless pictures and statuses for likes and even doing crazier stuff than that.  I have seen a 14 year old post as a status:  “1,500 likes and I will post a video of me stripping and dancing!” For one, people on these sites love that kind of thing and if a girl is attractive enough they will like it up to make sure it happens. I see many kids and even an 18+ friend of mine like one of these, and that was just disgusting. You know why? If you’re under 18 and do any kind of sexual act on video or picture wise that’s illegal, so if you are over 18 and participate in it acts or making it then you’re screwed.  It really saddens me that kids do these things now because it demonstrates an addiction to attention and a lack of parenting. It’s also sad seeing adults take interest of kids being ho-ish.  This is one of the many things wrong with society today. Kids should not be focused on sex until the late teen years because it takes a while for everyone to be old enough as that’s a fact of basic human nature and anatomy.

This also occurs with the older folks, but this is just annoying really. It is usually  really tame and crappy stuff that is usually seen on the porn sites like RedTube/X-Hamster/X Videos and should not even be on Facebook to begin with.  These posters lack credibility to me and I usually tend to ignore there crappy videos because that stuff is too easy to find.  They are too old to be educated so they are best off going to a strip club or any other place where adult entertainers go.  

I am not saying there is nothing wrong with taking pics, in fact go right ahead.  It’s always been a staple of these places to do that sort of thing and when it’s done right it can be wonderful. Especially in a time capsule sort of way as it helps to show how people have changed over time. This can also help to tell if a person is real or not, because some fake profiles use fake pictures, seen it plenty of times and it sucks all the same.   But at the same time there is a right and a wrong way to do even this. If you do it right then it can be a re-warding process, but if not then you can be disrespecting yourself in the worst cases.

If anyone wants some advice, here is some points I would like to bring forward:

1-Don’t post too many pics in one day. I have seen some girls post 25 pics a day for several days, that can get old if there is no innovation or variety.

2-Don’t be a ho in these things. Wear a shirt, even if it’s extremely dirty that’s what they are for after all.  Bikini shots are great but it can go overboard when someone acts like they are trying to take it off.

3-Be appreciative of the support you receive. Some people are ignored unfairly while the “hot” blonde who takes model shots gets tons of support and could care less.

4-Actually try to have a personality in these things.  Some of the picture crowds are lifeless at all times as they try to show no emotion. While that is good while acting like a statue it is not good for anything else.  If you express who you are, then odds are it will likely to be more remembered.

Now, I am not trying to call anyone out per se, I just don’t like the whole ho-ish vibe going on.  There is a time and a place for that, and Facebook  is one that should be avoided. And I am not trying to be a prude either because I am an adult male, I like the typical male stuff that can get wild behind the scenes (besides drugs of course.)  I like the ladies and do flirt with the them (focus on the word, not girls but LADIES.)  The whole "easy getting naked culture" get's old after a while because there are actually some guys that enjoy challenges when dealing with this stuff as the good ladies of society are rather hard to break. I think that's a fine thing because it shows principle, which by being easy does not.  

                              (Why 1987 you might ask? Well IMO it's the best year of the 80's. More on that in a future post.)

So in conclusion be smart and pride-full.  You can do this by wrapping up but staying sexy and actually earning your likes by your inner soul instead of cheap thrills through your black hole. (Sorry, had to censor for the kids.)

Why I Am Writing/What I Want To Do

I’m in an uncertain position in my life, a crossroads so to speak. I could keep on going on the way I am heading, and be the guy that says stuff that is worthwhile but it get's ignored for some worthless reason, or I could change things up and make things for the better. The second choice is easier the best option to choose and that's where I am heading in my path, but here's why and what happened to get me here. 

I have several reasons for writing now and I feel as excited and determined as I was in 2011 when I started my old blog up. The situation I am in if I was to compare it to 2011 is much better though, mainly because I am no longer held down by anyone or anything. It was really liberating because I finally had my voice, even though it was through writing, and I finally found my outlet. As a result of that, everything has improved for me in the most part. It was really wonderful because I got to experience new things and view new perspectives for the first time. It is truly something everyone must experience at some point in their lives and is completley different for each person. For me it was a blast and I still think about it fondly.

I was ready to go for 2012, because I had even more ideas to do. However Lady Luck decided to be a bitch and tried to bring me down last year.  Due to various bull shitty fastballs thrown in my face, I was naturally down emotionally. However it was really worse than that as I lost the spark for a lot of things, including writing. I just didn’t want anything last year besides a few things, and I had to deal with it. It was not fun standing back on the sidelines waiting for things to happen because I knew I could have a part in all of it.

Now I am all revved up and ready to go. My hunger’s back and I have a desire to do this again, and that’s important.  It’ll take me a while to get going again writing because I have not been allowed to write for myself besides college work for a while now. But I am back because I am off for the Summer, and now that I am back in the arena again I feel every good.   I will be still doing some of the blogs I used to do (Emotion Based/Real Life) blogs, but I am advancing things and stepping up this time. I will write a little about everything: Movies, Music, Sports the sky’s the limit really but one thing’s for sure though I will still be me. I don’t give a fuck still and probably never will unless it’s necessary, so don’t expect change there.   

Here’s Three Main Points I want People to Notice:

1-I am writing for me for the most part. I am not writing for a paycheck, nor to become an international superstar. I just want to express what’s on my head and why it is.

2-I want to introduce Creativity in my Social Circle.  It used to exist at one time, but now I am worried.  My friends are getting these updates from Twitter/Facebook, so I am not writing these for total strangers.  What I am doing will be a shock to them, but it must be done.

3-I want to get my old readers/friends back. Back in 2011 I made many new friends who appreciated the blog but they have faded away.  I know it may sound silly but I am making an effort to attract them again. I may do well or I may lose in this part, but it’s worth the effort.

To all first timers who find this, it is very much my goal to be as random as possible. There is not a set universal topic, rather it varies due to the fact I can’t handle staying on thing. I tried that before and it got old after a while. So by changing stuff up, I feel I can maintain interest and appeal to different people. That’s my style, it may be rather unconventional but that’s how I lived my life so far. 

So if your hating me for being "too random" I will proabably not listen.

Now that’s it for now, as I want to at least do one or two of these a day so I won’t be overworked.  But I have a request: If anyone has a topic that they want to see me talk about please let me know.

I am all about feedback as long as it’s useful and I consider it worth the time to read. Have a good one and I will be back on the flipside or however it goes now.
