Are you freaking kidding me?
In the last few days, I've been all over on the web - reading news, keeping up on message boards, playing games...
...but one thing I am sick of seeing...
...sh** being politicized that have no business being so.
Example 1 - Reading tributes on Huffington Post to Michael Jackson. You would read comments on both sides (good and bad), then someone will say something like: Why aren't we talking about Iran? or Neda's death (Iran conflict) is more important.
WTF?
Then, I go over to a parenting site, and someone is asking on a Twilight board what political party the Cullens belong to, and one wrote that her heart is broken because they are libs (Edward drives a Volvo, for Pete's sake - apparently that's a liberal signature).
Who cares?
Can we all enjoy stuff or comment on stuff without making a freaking huge deal out of it? Two things you don't speak of in polite company - religion and politics. There's a reason for that.
Does everything have to turn into a hot-button issue? We were talking about romance novels, of all things, on one blog, and some nitwit posts:
"And as for role models for women - I'm in favor of the strong, brave, and beautiful young women of Iran - the ones at the barricades, wearing green and fighting for freeddom."
OKAAAAAY...
Hate to see your stress level, genius.
