But hear me out. About two seconds after I posted the last post, I was directed to THIS link here.
Ok, I didn't know the woman had a brain. Considering that the story was the first thing I'd heard out of her, well, mouth (I guess..), you can imagine I didn't think she had much going for her, intellectually speaking. And you all know I'm pretty harsh on dumbasses.
Well, the link (which shows a sort of interview with Eliza about her relationship with ol' Gee) showed me that, well, she's a little smarter than your average vegetable. Certainly a little naive (did she EXPECT to get love and warmth and kisses for posting some thinly-veiled account of her relationship with another person? A great long detailed one at that? Posting personal shit on the interwebs like that gets one NOWHERE), but otherwise not as spastic and crazy as she appeared to be in her story.
Well, that's fine. It's all well and good if you wanna write some thinly veiled account of your relationship with another person. You gotta get shit out, GET it out. Write it down; I applaud her for that much.
My problem? The fact that she posted the thing all over the internet. Now, even I'm not that goddamn much of an idiot. Harsh of me, but it's true.
One; don't expect people to like it or respond warmly if it's written with the skill of a ten-year-old. Secondly; personal shit like that, you don't want total strangers reading that on the internet - do you really want people you don't even KNOW looking at the in-depth details of your relationship with someone else, which is supposed to be between you and that person anyway? Thirdly; don't expect people to write long loving understanding comments of your crisis, pat you on the back and give you a cookie.
Though cookies are nice.
Don't POST it where everyone can read it. Honestly, it does no good - just earns a bunch of trolls. And personal shit like that.. it's like posting your secret diary online. It's just stupid, really.
Amazingly, she was shocked at how horrible people were to her about it when she posted it. Number one - TROLLS. Enough said. Number two - people who hear funny rumours about someone cheating on a certain other (*cough*muchbelovedbyfans*cough*) someone tend to get.. er... violent.
And besides, people don't tend to react so warmly to such personal stuff. Maybe they JUST DIDN'T NEED TO KNOW, you know? Get a grip on your levels of privacy, woman, the world does NOT need to know, well, everything. They think they do, but seriously, they don't.
Ok. I think that's my two cents there. Troll me if you like, but at least I give reason for my rhyme =/
