spreading radical self love: 'ur rly pretty, but ur personality doesn't concern me much'

I was just on facebook and I'm having one of those moments. One of those, wow some people are so dumb, kind of moments.

I bet we've all seen the 'like my status for a tbh'. Well, to be honest, suck my dick. When I read into these things I notice that other peoples honest thoughts are really shallow and they really suck. What happened to substance? All I see are things like 'you're really pretty', 'you have a nice personality',  and 'you're nice to me and I like your dp'.

Like whaaaaaaaat?

That's not honesty! That's just plain simple, common courtesy but all up in your face.

Honesty is more like.. hm.. really heartwarming, or just absolutely horrible (if you're blunt about it).

If I ever did one of these things I would rather hear people say stuff like 'I think you're a great person, rainbows shine out of your ass and your kindness drives me crazy' or 'I absolutely totally adore you because you're fucking rad and beautiful and the most wonderful person alive'. Something more uplifting than 'I think you're pretty'.

It's like how some people think calling someone fat is insulting, I totally disagree! Calling someone fat might upset you, sure, but if someone were to call me dishonest, rude, unkind and useless then obviously that would piss me off much much more.

What I think I'm trying to say is, people should be more honest (and eloquent) when it comes to sharing the love, you know? If you've got nothing nice to say, then don't say it all but if it's a fantasmical thing to share then why not? I might not always follow my own advice, but I'm getting there.
