Welcome To The Born This Way Ball, Damn You
Hello. BakaNero here. Tonight I'll rant about this guy:
Actually, no. Whatever the being known as Lady Gaga is, he/she/it's collected enough mixed reception to make this damn rant useless if I end up talking about her. Besides, I don't want to have to deal with the damn fanbase too.
And speaking about the damn fanbase, it happens to be my subject/prey for tonight.
You see, as Gaga announced his/her/its concert here in the good ol' PH, moralfags and Gagafags (that's kinda redundant, huh?) sprung up left and right. One such example of a shitstorm that occurred because of this is right here.
Now, the problem was that people were a bit disagreeing. And that was because:
Moralfags: THINK OF THE CHILDREN! ALSO CHURCHES AND ILLUMINATI
Gagafags: ASSHOLES GOTTA LOOSEN UP AND JUST NOT WATCH HER. IT'S NOT LIKE IT'S GONNA BE IN TV OR ANYTHING [Notes: it is, assholes.] SHE'S A RESPECTABLE ARTIST!!! [Note: She's neither.]
Naturally a fan of shitstorms, I tried to get in on the action (bonus points to the guys who can find my name), only to find face-palming hilarity in a certain Osh who called the moralfags racist. Because, you know, religion? :sarcasticnudge:
But I'm not ranting about a single guy. I'm ranting because most of the people who commented there were basically too fucking lazy to read. You see, an argument in Facebook is like a lottery. When there's still a little number of people arguing, it's good; you get to voice your opinions out. You get a chance to win.
But if you add more assholes in there, things get bleak. All of them, shit tons of jerks trying to preach and preach, not realizing they're taking away every opportunity for a good idea to be heard, because all the dumb ideas flood the good ones out. It goes on and fucking on, and nobody understands each other but they keep arguing anyway. It goes downhill from there.
But we all know arguing in Facebook is as useful as solar-powered night vision goggles. What's new? Well, the arguments really show what the hell is wrong with the country.
People are either too close-minded, too open-minded or have absolutely no mind.
Filipinos can't be hospitable to their fellow Filipinos but will lick the dirt off a foreigner's boots if they'd be allowed.
Fucking arguing in a Facebook page, that's fucking what.
It was also a bit sad, too think that nobody had the guts to stay inconclusive about all this. It's better than being too damn square or being too damn open about things.
So yeah. There goes my first rant. Thanks for reading.
