So this post is about two things in particular that people do which just annoys the crazy out of me. I picked these two things because they seem to be a common theme around these parts; too many people here are guilty of them.
ANNOYING OCCURRENCE NUMBER 1.
People who live their lives repeating past mistakes like they're in some kind of time loop.
Why in the name of all that is sane and not in a straight jacket would you look at yourself and repeat the same mistakes over and over and over and...just stop. Please. Anywhere else in the world psychologists would have diagnosed you with some syndrome or disorder, because there is nothing normal in repeating yourself. What kind of selective memory loss deceives you into believing that it is perfectly OKIES to put your self in this situation? And what really trips me about these people is that later on they come to you like,
"OH MY GOSH!! I can't believe I did that!! That was so stupid of me!!"
And they leave you with this impression that they finally understand what you spent the better part of a century explaining to them like it's theoretical physics or something. But just give them a few more days and they'll be back to their old ways. And you sit and watch their display of madness in total confusion, because frankly this can not be the definition of life.
Worse still are the ones who come seeking your advice, and then get angry and rude when you tell them the truth!! *sidenote* If you don't want MY advice then explain to me how you arrived at MY door. I don't dish it out willy-nilly but if you ask for the truth please don't expect anything but the truth.
Which leads me to point Numero 2...
ANNOYING OCCURRENCE NUMBER 2.
People who say one thing then turn around and do something entirely different.
I don't want to think of it as lies, go ahead and call me naive. I'd rather think of it as stupidity because I feel like your foolishness has a cure and there is still hope. But if you are actively telling lies when there is no need for it I have nothing to say to you.
I fail to understand why you would come to me to discuss something that I honestly have no interest in and then lie to me!! I didn't ask you. You chose to tell me yourself. So...why lie?? Because you know that what you're doing makes no sense, that's why.
If at the end of this post you're wondering what it is I really want, it is for people to stop letting other people's opinions of them (mine included) rule their lives. I feel like the reason why people act foolish a lot of the time is because they are under the impression that this is what the world expects from them. Screw the world and its many invalid opinions; what do you want?? I want people to know who they are, what they want and to stand by that belief until they have reason to do otherwise.
Of course, as always, I'm asking too much.
