I don't know what it is about this boy that i just absolutely LOVE.
And I'm not gonna lie, I wasn't a fan of the blonde at first. I mean, I still think it's a little sus, but I must admit it's growing on me. The Brooklyn cap, the camo shorts, the new clothing line.. it's all working for me.
As if people didn't know they had vocal chords before, social networks have transformed into the new fightclub. Forget marketing tactics and relationship building, a lash of the social network tongue relieves the necessary stress and provides the right amount of spite.
It's not just your average Joe Schmoe's; celebrities are no different. Recently across the media boards, Ciara and Rihanna have recently pulled out the claws on twitter. Let me rewind and show you the video that set everything off.
Rihanna hits her timeline with "My bad ci, did I 4get to tip u? #howrudeofme" Then the small chain of twitter rants ensue. I mean, personally, I think Ciara would win if it ever came down to that. But that's besides the point! I love both of them and they squashed this, twitter-apologizing, and going through the kiss-and-makeup process. But has the world become so drama-filled that we resort to airing our beefs on the internet?
Here are some others:
Maybe people find the allure in the same thing that draws companies to social networks -- the amount of people that are reached. People enjoy using the social network speaker box because so many people can see what their saying in a split second and spread the word through re-tweets, comment and even share their like or dislike for the statements. That hits the person more because their argument becomes public. If the statement lacks any identification, what twitter users would call a "subtweet", the person who it was meant for gets the idea of the severity of the person's feelings and still gets "called out" to those who are aware of the situation. It has become the new tactic to embarass and be tough, but really it just falls under the category of childish.
Text messages. BBMs. FB Chat. @______. Let's not lose the reason we understand each other- our sense of communication.
