so unless you have been living some place without cable or internet access…

or if you don’t frequent Facebook, Instagram, MySpace, Tumblr or Twitter…

or if you don’t listen to the radio or don’t know how to read a newspaper…

or if you don’t have friends with mouths…

then you might be maybe one of like seven and a half people who missed the shit show that Miley Cyrus caused during her performance on the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards.

but i’m not going to speak about the crude and classless spectacle she caused while twerking (see: gyrating) all over a married man’s nether regions (Robin Thicke) and simulating masturbation using a foam finger…

[although, if you are interested in my tirade, this is the last thing i posted on my timeline regarding that matter: “we can all agree that it was obviously done for attention… there is no other plausible explanation for her performance other than that. she’s seeking out an unhealthy way to completely disassociate herself from her Hannah Montana/Disney character, and hoping to bring “shock value” to her audience by portraying herself as a raunchy whore with an ‘i don’t give a fuck’ attitude… it’s coming off as more insane than anything else. she seems destructive and unstable (as proven in a number of her actions and choices to date), and although her PR team is reveling in the fact that she is currently the center of worldwide attention, it will fizzle out almost as quickly as it began. in my opinion, not all publicity is good publicity and she is definitely validating that. additionally, she might want to seek medical attention since it seems as though her tongue has lost the ability to stay inside of her mouth. mmk, end rant… bye.”]

however, i have since moved on and would like to address something else that i find to be even more of an annoyance:

the high and mighty assholes who are soooo upset that her act has occupied the media, instead of actual imperative and newsworthy happenings that are currently taking place all over the world.

now don’t get me wrong…

i have no problem sitting down and holding a lengthy conversation over the crisis in Egypt and Syria, the scandal behind the NSA surveillance program, the sentencing of Chelsea Manning, the whereabouts of Edward Snowden, etc.

but just like the people who continuously post about the above mentioned topics on social media, the persons that want to discuss Miley, and/or *NSYNC’s 110-second-reunion, or Taylor Swift’s nonstop bitter-cunt-face are allowed to use the same platform for discussion/expression, as well…

and unless you decide to delete/hide them from your feed, there’s really nothing you can fucking do about it.

so instead of acting like you’re soooo much better because you watch CNN as opposed to the Disney Channel, why not learn to tolerate all sorts of stories and viewpoints?

why not take a little break from the monotony of depressing broadcasts, and realize that some people are more interested in talking about how Ben Affleck is the new Batman, and how Lamar Odom is addicted to crack cocaine, and how North West looks like a chipmunk?

and you know what?

not everything needs to be so fucking serious…

and just because you talk about something ad nauseam, it doesn’t mean that your little retweeted or shared post is going to actually change the world!

and as much as you’re entitled to your own humdrum opinion, how about maybe opening up to the possibility of shutting the hell up once in a while?

because in the grand scheme of things, your shit is no more significant than mine…

and none of us really matter all that much.

so get the fuck over yourself.

mmk, end rant again…

bye!
