The website known as Formspring is probably one of the stupidest websites that I've ever decided to become a part of. This website is basically a gate for people to trash talk anyone they want to without anyone A) knowing who they are and B) to say stuff they'd never have the gumption to say in person. I mean Formspring was actually fun at first if you happened to be one of the fortunate people to have it for everyone else found out about it but then break came around and it turned into shit talking central. I mean can someone please enlighten me as to why its necessary to anonymously post something to someone? I don't really understand it. Why have we all stooped so low as to use a website to fuck with people? I mean granted our generation is the technology generation.. but come on, everyone needs to get a freaken life. You're all wasting your time with this bullshit.. there's so much more to life having a beef with someone or having the last word when you don't like someone. Everyone needs to stop going around telling everyone how fake they are and how two face or how ugly.. are you serious? EVERYONE can be fake, ANYONE can be two faced, and NO ONE is drop dead gorgeous and chances are that if you're one of the people going around anonymously posting this to other people than you're probably describing yourself. And if you don't believe that then you need to get over yourself. And yes, I have a Formspring... but I could honestly care less about ANYTHING someone says on there about me anonymously because if you don't have the guts to tell me who you are then you have no business saying stuff to me in the first place but hey, I'll entertain you and answer you anyway. But I actually know that I have friends and that I don't need your bullshit to define my life because my life has nothing to do with you. So keep your nose out of it. I figure when we go back to school this is whats going to happen: first of all EVERYONE everyone is going to be talking about all the stuff that happened on Formspring. People that posted mean stuff on peoples page are gonna hear about it in school laugh to themselves. A lot of people are not going to follow through with their threats they made on the website and I don't doubt that some people will. Has anyone else noticed how most of the people that use the website are.. girls? What a surprise.. just more proof that all girls are trash talking bitches and I say that with complete love. But its completely true. We're all bitches. Every single one of us. I mean when did it become everyones business about who someones been with, is with, or has done stuff with? STAY OUT OF PEOPLES BUSINESS. What the hell is wrong with people. Stay out of peoples personal business. Everyones done stuff and its no ones business how much someones done. Just because someones had sex or done anything does not make them a slut, skank, whore, etc. Everyone needs to stop call each other stuff like that. And also just because you like someone or you were with someone and someone else has done stuff with them or is doing stuff with them doesn't give you the right to want to fight someone. Congratulations... you hooked up with someone or you went out with them. Hey guess what? Its over. YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO HATE SOMEONE BECAUSE THEY HAVE WHAT YOU LOST. Get over yourself. OH and another thing stop sitting there and judging people you hardly know just because you think something doesn't make it true. Don't sit there and question someones sexuality when they clearly have a girlfriend. Don't sit there and question why someone is friends with someone or why someone likes another person, those people clearly see something in that person that you obviously don't. If you don't like them, alright. But seriously it doesn't give you the right to go and try to ruin their life. Apparently anyone our age is way to ignorant to realize what goes on in the world around them. All's everyones concerned with is how much people like them how much better they are than anyone else. Our generation has so much potential and half of us are half assing everything we do. Come on! Prove ever single adult thats ever doubted us wrong. We can do something with our lives. I mean we can actually change something around her. We could eventually even fix the country when we getting older because we continue to watch it go into the shit hole when we're young.
"They say we’ll never see half as much as they did, and it’s true that we never saw Vietnam or World War II. We didn't see our mothers cry when John F. Kennedy died, but we’ve lived our whole lives being told that we’re just not good enough. We've seen anorexia and bulimia because skinny just isn’t skinny enough. We watched the Twin Towers fall, we've seen a lot of greed and even more hate. Our generation fights a different kind of war, but we’ve seen just as much as them and maybe even more.."
There is so much going on in our that shit like this should never even matter to us. But it does, because most of us have no idea what to do with our lives. We have no idea where we want to go. But that doesn't mean we should waste our time trashing people because we think for some stupid reason we're better than them. We should be sitting there judge people because of where they come from, what they look like, who they spend their time with, or what they spend their time doing. We ask each other why we talk shit about other people but the truth is every single person talks shit about someone in their life. I don't care who you are, if you get mad at someone.. no matter who it is... your best friend, your friend, and obviously your enemies... you talk shit. Don't say you don't because if you're seriously going to sit there and tell yourself that then you really need to stop lying to yourself. People are going to talk shit about you and you're going to find out and you're not going to like it but you seriously need to just forget it. Life is way too short to get worked up about stuff like this. If you waste your time getting upset over stuff people say about you on Formspring or in person. you are going to miss so much. There is way too much to life to have this stuff actually effect you. We're only going to young for so long. Responsibilities are going to start coming at us from left and right and no ones going to be ready because we've decided to waste our time worrying about stuff that really isn't going to matter when we leave our hometowns let alone high school. None of this stuff is going to matter. But alls we worry about now is who we don't like and what this person did to us. We mostly live our lives on assumptions anyway. We always amuse, most of the time we never know the whole truth. It takes trust to build any type of relationship with another human being and it only takes assumption, not truth to completely destroy it. So seriously stop wasting your time on all the little things. Do something with your life. The world is so big with so many opportunities. Figure out where you want your life to end up. I mean figure out what you want to do. Anything can happen, your life can change at any time. It doesn't take that much to alter where you're going. But you're never gonna figure out where you're going if you don't watch the road. I am convinced that our generation really need to open their eyes and wake up.. because I feel like most of us our living with our eyes closed. Everybody wake up because life is going to change for you and you aren't going to know what you're doing because you were to busy worrying about stuff thats not going to matter in your future.
WAKE UP.

As much as I agree with you about how stupid people can be with Formspring, I think it's for different reasons.
When Formspring started up, I thought of it as a cool way for people who I'm not close with to get to know me. I answered a few anonymous questions that were cute and insightful, and didn't really think much of it. When you take a look at the people who have joined the website since, it makes sense that this drama is gonna happen - the general crowd is bratty, whiny teenagers who spend all or most of their time online, and thus thrive off the drama. But what's most foolish on the website isn't that people [presumably the aforementioned characters] are posting anonymously - it's that others are responding to the anonymous posts and feeding the trolls. When you add fuel to the fire, it's never going to be extinguished, and that's what's pathetic about Formspring - people have turned it from an innocent question-and-answer site to a hub of drama, a home for the haters.
As bad as it is that these anonymous posters are bashing, it's the people who accept the hate comments and respond to them that enable the haters.
this is the very reason why i want to move out of America. Tell me who is the prime minister of England? How about the president of France? Or italy? OR EVEN CANADA!?? No one know becuase know one in Amnerica cares because everyone is blinded and selfish. I feel your anger in fact i feel it every day since spohmore year. I hate ignorance and yet it consumes us day in and day out. thats why i wanna be a missonary and see people die because thats the real World! And thats why i didn't break lizze's arm in half because i realized it's not worth it life is bigger then such things. I totally 100% agree with you and feel your anger. Real truth is irrelevant and will remain irrelevant til the day that they die.
i really do agree with you and sarah, kaitlin, it's so astounding how much hate there is in the world. it's scary even. i just don't understand the average person these days. why would anyone enjoy that?
