Definitions.

Gossip: idle talk or rumor, esp. about the personal or private affairs of others

Drama: any situation or series of events having vivid, emotional, conflicting, or striking interest or results

Ignorance: The condition of being uneducated, unaware, or uninformed

Stupid: lacking ordinary quickness and keenness of mind; dull

Just a few definitions so there is no confusion as to what I am talking about.

After a lengthy discussion with my mother I have come to the conclusion that gossip does not die when you turn 18. In fact, it worsens. Adults are your middle school and highschool friends combined with an added feeling of independece and douchebaggyness. What I am still failing to understand is why. Why is it that when you reach this pivitol moment in your life you feel a need to be catty, shady, and other words of the sort? I thought we were responsible adults who could be open with others and at least be civil. But thank you for proving me wrong.

Gossip brings nothing but pain. anger, and hurt feelings. If you are not part of the problem and not part of the solution you should have NOTHING to talk about. If you have questions or concerns, take them up with the people directly involved. Don't be coniving and snarky [Yeah, snarky, it's a word. Google it]

Ignorant, not to be confused with stupid, talk is nothing more than nonsense. Seriously?? Get a life. Or at least get out of other peoples. Your "help" or whatever you want to call it, is NOT appreciated or wanted.

Please and Thank you.

We are fallen beings.
We sin.
We want to feel better than others.
