Awkward…
Lately…
So, I’m not quite sure if this is stemming from the disaster of a life that I have or the events of the past two days (which I won’t be discussing), but every time I see a sappy, optimistic quote, I throw up in my mouth a little. Yes, yes, I know; It helps people cope sometimes and makes them all bubbly on the inside like Oprah after downing a box of champagne. I get it. You know what bothers me about them though? The passive aggressiveness behind them. Sure, they seem innocent enough—just little platitudes of and snippets of life lessons that you’ve learned or glass-half-full notions, but, behind it all, lies the true intention of the author: a pitiful attempt to try and make whatever event, group, or person who committed the so-called “crime” against them or their loved ones upset, or rather, upset that the people that they “damaged” are doing fine. Through the use of minor syntax and subtle hints of emotion, the poster aims to mask their true anger and/or grief instead of dealing with it head-on and getting the fuck over it. Simple quotations or illustrations that one may find on Google or hear on The View aren’t going to change your life for the better and passively trying to make the opposer jealous or ticked off will only make you bitter in the long run. Spend your time and energy bettering yourself, not living in the past. In a nutshell, go get a bottle of Grey Goose, down it, have your night of “healing,” and get the hell over it. What’s done is done; you can’t change the unchangeable.
This is the UPS truck that beeped at me ‘cause I was sitting at the bus stop.
The ART by my class. Maybe I should give them my fingerpaintings to hang as well.
Fun fact: My classroom for animal nutrition doubles as a meat locker.
