A Title Pretending to be Clever

Gets a day off

Wakes up stupid early to wait for comic con badge sales.

I was Hipster before Hipster became not Hipster. Because, yo know, it doesn’t exist anymore because its mainstream.

Ya.

Time to redefine my wierdness since its considered normal now.

Lalala emailing all the important people….inquiring about job postings….trying to set up meetings with my bank….bugging my landlord…bug the union rep because I haven’t been getting emails….
Then suddenly, “by the way just so you know, all the emails you’ve sent me were sent twice”
……
So instead of hr seeing one inquiry about jobs they see two of the same.
instead of my banker seeing, “is Thursday okay”
they see, “is Thursday okay?……… IS THURSDAY OKAY OMGWTF JUST ANSWER ME RIGHT NOW!!”
……
*sigh
Yay email?

So i went out last night to see some friends that I haven’t seen in a few years and i was hoping to catch up and see how they are doing. They have me on a fucking pedestal seriously wtf. There is no way I am that lengendary.
Especially when you consider just now I was staring at this damn tumblr thing and i don’t understand how to use the bloody thing. How do you know when someone reblogs your posts? How do you have a conversation with people? What is going on??

So anyway let’s talk about my internet adventures. I see people interact with plenty of people on various forums or social media sites and everythings all peaches. I come on and get ignored. Like everywhere. There’s a post on Reddit about a charitiy thing and there’s hundreds of comments. I post something similar and its ….me having a conversation with me. That’s super fun.

Oh, also, just throwing something else out there:
How the fuck do you add people on Facebook. In university it just made sense to add everyone and their mothers but now in the working world I don’t have a clue? I join a new workplace and make acquaintances but never figure out when to ask them to be Facebook friends. Then someone comes in like a month later and by the end of the week is laughing with everyone over a post everyone saw on the damn site. Like what the actual? An I missing a step somewhere in basic human interaction? I know I wasn’t raised with social media and had to adapt to it in my late teens but everyone else in my age group seem to be doing just fine.

That being said, even though I rant about it, it no longer bothers me as much as it did last year. I’m comfortable with who I am and what social limitations I have. We are all special snowflakes in our own way and need to learn to embrace our faults just as lovingly as we pride ourselves in our strengths.
