I'm So Deep, I Should Be In A Well

[vianegativa]

I'm really hoping that swank new disconnect/disaffect meme (oh wait *sniff* the elite don't DO memes) that's running through the journals of all the most haute judgemental bears is really just sarcasm and not a healthy dose of hypocrisy.

I mean, if you feel the person is just too shallow, defriend him, but don't try to make A New Vogue Salon about how much deeper you are than that person.

Please.

No, not like a rape meme. More like an undercurrent in a few folks journals.

Damn! I thought the Rape Meme was the hottest thing going!

Memes.

Sometimes they're stupid. Sometimes they're profound. Sometimes they provoke flirtatious comments. Sometimes they offer insight into someone's music or movie or book interests. Sometimes they offer an in depth look into a person's life.


I can't say the same thing about bingo cards.

Well, I'm a meme hater when that's all a person ever posts but I won't roast a person alive for posting fluffy things.

I mean the "disconnect/disaffect" meme is something I see where folks bitch about the posts of others in their journal then seem to make judgement calls based upon a single post.

LJ isn't a holistic picture of a person so you reallycan't judge someone based on posting a crappy meme. Just my two cents.

I've never been a big fan of the meme's involving passing judgements to others, especially when it can't be named. Criticism to one person can lead to 19 others assuming the ONE negative comment was on them and then this whole silent "He hates me" mentality starts... and one person who really should've listened assumed the positive things were about them. :P

Personally, I bitch, but I do it in person. ;)

As for de-friending. I don't really get that. Course, I treat the friends list as more of a "favorites" list than a "A-list bears club" type of thing.
