Reminder...

There are people on the net that have nothing better to do with their time then be nasty to other people online. They post rude comments, spend hours a day talking about sites they hate so much, that they well, spend hours a day talking about them. (lame) They mock the owners and posters for their opinions and their right to free speech. They expect everyone to fit into their narrow-minded little world view or else they throw a temper tantrum.

To these people I say
grow up
.

Here's a bit of info people...the web is a HUGE place. If you don't like what I say here, or who I am, or what I do, or talk about, or what I look like, or the color of my hair, or whatever asinine thing you dwell on, go somewhere else. It's really, really easy. Honest. You just click the little "x" in the corner of your browser and *poof* the offending, big, mean and nasty site has disappeared.

I pay for this site. It's mine. That means I can use it for whatever the hell I want to. Don't like it if I'm bitching about something in my life? Oh fucking well. Go somewhere else. Think I'm stupid for expressing my thoughts? Too fucking bad, don't read them. Somewhere along the line, someone forgot this simple fact: Live and let live Don't like me, cool, fine, whatever, I don't care. This journal is NOT for you. It's for me. I'm not in it for popularity or fame or anything stupid like that. I write it because I need to write and express myself and get things out of my head sometimes. So read or don't, it doesn't matter, but don't waste my time (or yours) bitching about it.

*gets off soapbox*

Reading is Funduhmental
I get a notification of a comment this evening. It reads - and I quote:
"Please think about what you are doing when you shop and promote Walmart. Crafting is fun and I am so glad that people do it (I am a crafter myself) but spending 2 dollars rather than 3 on some shells...is it really worth undermining the American worker so that you can get your craft supplies at a cut rate??"

My first reaction is hu? Followed closely by, "wtf?" So I look to see what post the comment is coming from. Turns out it's the one about the Paua shells Kenno sent me from NZ back in January. Ok, but this still leaves me trying to figure out what this crazy drive-by soapboxer is bitching about.

Here's the part where I comment about Wal-Mart and shells:
"Twenty-one years ago when we moved here, shells were plentiful and gorgeous. Now? Little to nothing of value to be found. You buy your shells for $2 a small bag in the Wal-Mart craft isles."

And yes, the little no, no, no emoticon is on the post as well.

Wouldn't you think that perhaps, juuuust perhaps, before you go ranting someone out for "promoting" Wal-Mart and trying to belittle their shopping choices, that you might want to actually read the actual post? I'm clearly commenting on how sad and pathetic it is that there are little to no shells au natural these days and that instead, they're only cheap trinkets at Wal-Mart.

"Adrienne" you need to learn a few things before you wander the net making a damned ass out of yourself. And the first thing would be reading comprehension. Because I believe the word I'm looking for right now is "dumbass."
