Taking a break from roughing in my paper... I found i got stuck when i tried to outline it so, now i am just writing the freaking paper
( Read more... )
my God, second journal entry in a row i've agreed with!!! we have to stop agreeing with each other! it's scaring me ;) hugs sweetheart....and a resounding BAM! in agreement with your entry.
fine, I am anti-sighs and anti-people-who-try-to-be-mysterious-but-are-really-just-annoying, and anti-mysterious-phone-calls. I am anti-melodrama.
I agree that no one can live a drama-free life. But I hate people who embrace melodrama and force it on other people who don't want to be around it. Soul-wrenching drama is fine.
What I hate is the people who are melodramatic for ATTENTION. The attention whores who sigh and complain and have mysterious phone calls, the ones who sleep with two guys in the same week and keep leading both of them on... and then complain about their predicament.
oh and as far as the tv thing goes -- EVERYONE enjoys watching drama on TV. Anti-drama and pro-drama people alike. It's because the characters' battles are real to them, and they're not acting dramatic for attention. Their lives depend on everything that happens.
1st. I have never met a declared prodrama person. 2nd. Who says what drama is real? reality is perspective of the observer. 3rd. FICTIONAL characters lives no more depend on most of the popular drama on tv than do real characters. It seems to be that everyone's problems are very real to themselves. How can you really rationalize by saying: "it won't matter 10 years down the road." Now is just as important as 10 years from now.

1. I thought you just said you were anti-anti-drama. Isn't that pro-drama? 2. It's real when it's not for the benefit of someone else -- when you are actually experiencing something and not just putting on a show. 3. Still, your original point was that everyone who is anti-drama loves tv drama. And mine was that while I agree that anti-drama people do, I was trying to say that your generalization is flawed since just as many pro-drama people do.

Drama is fine, as long as it's real.
