We live in a time where everyone has some sort of social networking account. Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and the like. In addition, access to e-mail and text messages have made many people lazy and tactless.
Here's what pisses me off:
1. It is not appropriate to have a Facebook argument with your Spouse or boy/girlfriend where you hint at who/what you're talking about so that other people don't catch on (doesn't work) then change your status to single and announce to the world that you are ready to mingle only to reconcile and change your status back to married/in a relationship less than 24 hours later. ---->Grow up.
2. Kids, your parents may be older but not all of them are out of touch. Posting pictures of yourself with a drink in your hand, a cigarette in your mouth or your tongue down someones throat is probably not the best idea. Did you forget that dear ole dad is one of your 2,700 friends? You should also not mention that tattoo you didn't want mom and dad to find out about. ---->Stupid. Get a clue.
3. Only PUNKS have arguments via text. If you have something to say to someone, get on your grown man/woman and talk to them. You can speak to them over the phone or face to face (depending on the situation). Text/Facebook/Twitter wars are for scaredy cats who can't handle confrontation. Not only that, it puts all your business "on the street" and makes you look real dumb. ----> See #1
4. I understand that technology has made it convenient to send event invitations to your 150 million closest friends via the internet. I have used them myself... in certain circumstances. For certain events however, an actual paper correspondence is proper. Facebook invite for Baby's Christening? Tacky. Text message invite for a birthday party happening tomorrow? No thank you. Funeral invitation posted to your wall? Ill. Some things just aren't meant for the internet. ----> Use common sense and if you don't have common sense, you are a danger to yourself and others. Seriously.
Your turn. What Pisses you off?
