WARNING: Annoyed Blogger


Blogging is technology’s way of allowing people to express and share their thoughts and opinions on, well, on anything.  It’s like, oh I don’t know, a public diary?  But diaries are supposed to be private:  They are places where people write their personal thoughts, opinions and feelings about various subjects.  It is where they vent about their stance on certain issues.  

Personally, I never mind if people read my diary- in private.  But I do not want to hear their criticism in exchange.  I also do not want to hear them complaining about my opinion and dissecting the way I write or the things I choose to write.  I wrote them because I wanted to; do not try to sway me against my clear stance.  I do not care for their negative opinions.

Of course, if they have something nice to say, I am happy to have a positive, constructive conversation about the topic, shared opinions, or other related issues.  This can help us expand and develop on our core ideas and opinions.  It creates an immediate connection with the other person, giving a sense of understanding with one another.  

I cannot understand how blogging has become so popular.  I- for one- cannot handle the trolling and negativity that comes with blogging.  I am a generally positive person, and I do not like having to constantly be on the defense.  In fact, I am bad at playing defense.

This is why blogging is not for me: I do not want your damn cynical opinion of my stance on any given subject.  If bloggers do not have anything nice to say, they shouldn’t say anything at all.  If they have something bad to say, they should make their own blog and bitch about it with other people that agree with them, because clearly I do not.
