Did some one mock you over your Facebook Post?



Ok. So the next time, someone mocks you about expressing affection/anger/emotions on Facebook, ask them to relax. Ask them to take a deep breath, and right then (dramatically) pop the million-dollar question, "I'm sorry. I missed out on reading the Facebook Terms & Conditions; do you have a copy of it?"

Naannsense! (Anushka Sharma says it better)

Even if Mark Zuckerberg said he found my act of articulating love on Facebook foolish & attention-seeking, it still wouldn't dissuade me from posting another one. Because, let's get a little rational here.
A public platform. Facebook is a public platform. For every kind of public that exists.
Why is that you won't step back in ridiculing a fellow Facebook user when he/she posts 'affectionate statuses', but go ahead and share/post your outlook/thoughts via 'Aunty Acid' or 'Your E-cards'? 

Haven't we heard of opinions? If you can have one, so can the other (Some sage did make sense when he/she said this). It's simple; Have a problem? Block the person or unsubscribe from their newsfeeds. That's definitely no rocket-science! (My two best friends got me out of their favourite-friend list, and I'm bloody as hell proud of them)

Yes. I know exactly what's running through your Einstein brain right now. Whether or not I have been victimized? Yes, I have been. Because, apparently it's a mortal sin & I refuse to take it low.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I did mull over this antacid behaviour doing the rounds & thereafter concluded; there ought to be 3 rationale explanations as to why a certain someone would do that one thing they rather should not.
1) Either you wish to blend into the 'stereo-typical' voices of today and be one of them. (In short, be cool) - (peer-pressure)
2) Either you are jealous (I'm being subtle) about the love those two share (can be a couple, two friends or a gay couple for all you care)
3) Or, you genuinely dislike it. Just that!

Very few, and I mean it, only a few belong to the 3rd category (My two best friends do, remember?). Moreover, if you did belong to the 3rd category, you'd plain block the person or unsubscribe, irrespective of a friend/sibling/mom/dad/boss.

Are you thinking what I am? Unsubscribing /un-friending is not an option! (Because people do take Facebook seriously) (*lowers head in shame* BUT *personal choice hain* *Respect*)
Un-friending, not liking a picture, not commenting on a status may not be taken sportingly by some. But why do you care, you genuinely dislike "Public-display-of-verbal-affection", so go ahead, do the ethical. You'll be blessed a thousand folds.

Ahhaaa...No you won't!  Someone once said, be yourself. And if this is you, there's no shame to it.
