If You Can't Say Anything Nice, Don't Say Anything at All

People have been getting on my nerves on Facebook lately.  Some people say exactly what they think with no regard to how it may come off to the other person.  I was told the picture of my new haircut looked really bad.  Then asked if I don't like having my picture taken, then why do I keep taking picture of myself and posting them.  Well, I do have to have a profile pic!  Duh people!  Then I have people who correct my grammar and spelling!  That really irritates me so much!  I guess they don't realize that they make me feel like shit by doing this.  And finally, I had people asking me why I wasn't at church!  I am not a regular church goer at all, so I don't understand why they missed me so much today at church!  I went on my FB and deleted all the comments that irritated me.  Maybe these people will get the picture! 

 I don't need lectured on attending church!  It is my choice to go or not to go.  I am not a person who believes in institutional religion.  I believe that if you are a believer in God, it doesn't matter if you go to a church or not.  I wasn't baptized until I was 22 because my mother "forgot "!  I do enjoy certain aspects of church like communion.  I have yet to find a pastor that I feel is inspirational regarding God.  I think I need to go to one of those very commercialized churches in a huge auditorium with lots of people saying "Amen" and "hallelujah"!  There is a church like that in Jefferson that I really want to go to!  There is also a couple of churches in Carroll that we haven't checked out yet that I'd like to.

Anyway,  my message is think before you post a comment.  Think how it is going to make the other person feel.  Don't be a bitch if the bottom line!

  1. Ditto and ditto again!! Great post! I completely agree with FB. Add one thing to your list regarding FB, it can be used to snub people. Your true friends won't put yucky comments. You did the right thing by deleting their thread. I also agree on the church thing. I know people who go every Sunday who are mean spirited people. I also know some church leaders who should practice what they preach. Just remember you have friends who care about you and your feelings. ♥

  2. FYI I couldn't get it to accept my comment using my Google Account. Had to go anonymous. Not sure why it wouldn't take it. Deb

  3. Thanks Deb! I don't know why people don't think. There is one person in particular that really rubs me the wrong way some times!
