I've been noticing things recently. Maybe not recently. Maybe it just now bothers me in the same way smoke doesn't. We're friends and yet we never stop talking shit about each other. The problem is that we're all cowards about it. I yelled at Nikki and Meagan yesterday when each accused the other of faking their problems and realized we're all guilty of it. We say the worst shit about people who aren't there and it really bothers me. I'm done. I'm done slandering people. I'm usually blunt and if I have a problem with somebody I tell them straight away. Sometimes you guys'll be blunt, but most of the time it's all "be nice when they're around but keep the backstabbing knives nice and sharp."
It's about time we fucking cut it out and stopped acting like children. I can't even imagine what people say about me when I don't pay attention. I've been assured by Brandon that it's stuff I already know about. I'm an asshole. I repaid him with a revelation of the "Brandon is creepy" conversations. Honestly, I don't much care what was said about me. I care what's said to me and hopefully for all of us what's said about us and what's said to us can be the same thing.
I'll take the lead. I'll grow up and be brutally honest with people. It's easy for me to do. I ask that you guys join me, because none of us are innocent here. We've got to stop shit talking friends who can't speak for themselves and have the balls to cut the gossip. In fact, I issue a challenge. I dare you to go one week, from November 1 to November 7, without besmirching any of our cadre. I dare you.
I don't think you can do it.

hahaha I agree. and I know that I can do it. It's part of the reason why half of my "friends" don't have much to say to me anymore.
oh well.
Rebooted mine. No worries. Course, I always speak the truth even if it's whiney :D
amen to that... I just have problems being like that to people... even though sometimes you really should... but if you think about it, you should be able to figure out why I don't do that shit.
It really drives me crazy though when say you're talking to someone about someone else.. or their name just comes up in convorsation.. things get said, then that person goes and tells the person you were tlaking about what you said.... I mean COME ON! everyone fucking talks about everyone.. it's human fucking nature. AAAHHH!
I only talk when others provoke me... one thing that I do give into peer pressure to. But I will take your bet, in fact I will raise you a week. The first two weeks of not talking behind a friend's back. No big deal there.
I knew this was going to come up and I think most of it is shit that has been said before. I told Meagan that before, though no one has ever really said that about me. I think it's best if we go ahead and just admit our problems. Hmmm....
I will not say i can do this
because i honestly doubt i can.
i dont feel bad making observations about the people around me
and i dont feel bad if they have quirk that bugs me saying it to someone else
i dont think brutal honesty is all that helpful with everything
i will work on being honest with the bigger shit but not everything.
thats just how i am and i'm okay with that.
if it matters i tell you if I dislike how your hairstyle looks
or I dont like your shirt
or you used my teacups without telling me i dont feel obligated to say anything just bitch a bit to someone else and move on,
i think saying everything could cause more drama. and I am just not into that
