Rant.

Today is a Rant Day. Walking to and from class, I find many things that annoy me.
Call me hypocritical if you like, I don’t care. Here is my spur of moment rant.
1. Lack of interactions in the real world. When I pass someone in the hallway or the sidewalk, I give them a small smile. Usually, people see someone walking toward them and they look down or way, or have the sudden urge to pull out their cellular device. Okay, maybe it is just me and people would rather not look at my face. But I don’t think that’s quite it. Have we spent too much time texting and facebooking each other that we don’t know what to do in actual social situations? Holding the door for someone or saying “hello” to people in passing shouldn’t be out of the ordinary, it should be the norm.

2. Musical Trends. Ugh. Ahh. It seems to me that people are making less of an effort to search for good music. Instead, they listen to whatever the media throws at them and decide what is good, or even “music”. Example: Miley Cyrus. Justin Beiber. Neither of these two have any musical talent whatsoever. How any of these “teen acts” get famous is beyond me. Stop jumping on the bandwagon and form your own taste in music. It might take some searching, some musical listening trial and error, but you’ll get there. Which leads me to my next one:

3. Lack of information. I can’t think of a better way to describe this, but we don’t actively look for information or truths anymore. Most people only discover news if it pops up while they’re checking their e-mails. Or it is not their Facebook newsfeed. Okay, I shall admit I don’t follow the news very well. But, I will actively do research of my own. If I hear about something and it interests me, I will go look it up and find out more information, or if what I heard is even true at all.

4. WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU WEARING?! We wear shorts when it is hot out to keep cool. We wear boots when it is cold out to keep warm. So one should conclude that you needn’t wear shorts and boots at the same time, yes? Girls: stop dressing in tight shirts and short shorts/skirts. You then get upset when guys hit on you or treat you differently when dressed like this, but they’re taught to respond to this. Think about it. Guys: stop “poppin’ the collar”. Both: lay of the perfume/cologne. Wear what is comfortable to YOU, not what fashion magazines tell you to wear.

5. Uneducated. Even if you are, we as a society (at least my peer group) seem like we’re not. Why? Cuz we dunt no how 2 tpye. Like omgz lern how 2 spel words. R bad typing/txting is now affecting how we email r profs. even when physically speaking we talk like where in da 3 grade, u no? FML!
