ATTENTION all you ....

Sometimes, I feel like I'm surrounded by them. Attention wh*res. 

Just this morning, I don't know HOW MANY of my friends posted on their fb walls this one attention-getting meme/pic, or whatever you wanna call it:



I confess that, yes, I was on my fb newsfeed briefly this morning. And, as I scrolled I came a cross a few of these. It begs the question, really? You feel the need to have so much attention because you must be lacking it in other aspects of your life, huh? 

And, then I look at who posted these. It all makes sense .. more or less. My "friends" who post shit like this only want attention. They crave it, they need it, they live on it. If it's not a post like this, it's pictures of themselves doing ... what ever. Surfing, riding, partying, or just being a selfie monster. 

See, it's things like this that keep me away from fb. Why you gotta act all aloof and clueless by putting crap like this up? Don't you know that people can see right through your bullshit? And, the ones that actually comment are worse. Feeding on each others need to be recognized and validated as someone important to YOU. My god. 

Now, before you start coming down on me for dogging these kind of attention go-getters by saying, oh, you have a blog that's all about yourself. Yes, I do have a blog, but I'm not bothering anyone with it. I'm not shoving it in anyone's face or posting that you NEED to go read my blog. Or, asking anybody to pick a number and I'll be honest with my answer. Hah! Oh please ... just making myself more irritated. 

It's late, and time for lunch. The hunger monster is coming out in blog form. Must feed.

I'll be back a little later ...

xoxo
