I'm getting Blame the Butler vibes but I doubt that's it.

Nah, I'm about to look that up though.

It's a skit by Studio C.

Ah, that's where I've heard it.
Anyhow, I like to watch drama fester, once the yelling comes out, then it gets interesting.

THANK YOU STUDIO C IS MY LIFE

Okay, I feel like I should explain what I meant by "fake negativity" the other day because people took that completely wrong…
I wasn't actually accusing people of faking their sadness or anything of the sort. I also wasn't complaining about teens expressing their sadness in the form of dramatic messages over the internet (Have you seen the Venting Space chat before? It's 90% just me complaining over tiny details that will never truly matter in the most dramatic way possible). What I was actually complaining about was people who use their sadness to bring others down, often without realizing it. Since most of the time when people do this, they overdramatize things to no end and/or leave out all positive aspects, I decided to just call it "fake negativity" instead of explaining the entire thing, especially since that wasn't even the point of my rant.

If you still have no idea what the blep I'm talking about, here's an example:
Imagine you had a good day for the first time in weeks. You start talking about how wonderful it was, how glad you were to be free of your stresses… And then some grumpy teenager comes along and goes on a dramatic rant about how it'll all come back, your happiness won't last forever, these days won't matter in the end, someday your name will be forgotten, you'll eventually wish you never existed at all, no one truly loves you, people out there are suffering, something about overpopulation and/or global warming, you're not allowed to smile because some people out there can't, blah blah blah, etc, etc. It wouldn't feel too great, would it? You just wanted to escape those thoughts and smile for once but someone came and tried to ruin that.

^That, my pancakes, is what I actually meant by "fake" negativity.

You might be thinking "But NutElla, that never actually happens, what are you even talking about?"
And to that I say-
You're really freaking blind. _{(Jk, I'm only trying to make this a bit more rude-ish. You probably haven't looked hard enough, which is perfectly understandable. Love you guys!)}
Maybe I'm just a magnet for this kind of stuff, which is pretty likely considering I'm almost always talking about something happy, but I get that garbage on a weekly basis. I uploaded my dorky, overly positive profile picture to PaigeeWorld, got three comments, and they were all from depressed young teens talking about suicide. I once said something about how beautiful this world is when you look at it close enough, got a response, and it was a rant about how the world truly isn't beautiful and "I'm just sheltered". These are only a few of the many examples I have for you, but I'd rather not waste my time writing all of them out just to prove a point, especially in the chat where no one cares.

Since this is the Rudeness chat if I don't call anyone out I'll probably get multiple messages from either people who feel called out, people saying I'm not being rude enough, or people questioning whether or not this stuff actually happens, so I'm going to list some of the users that I think I might've seen do this, maybe. I don't really know, I'm mostly just listing people who have been negative before:
Jensen, Emi, Alex (not Alexandria, a different Alex), Eris, Logan/Lex, Kylee, Jynnie, Peridot/whatever their username is now, Swimwithgamers, NutEllaDraws (Hey! I know her!), Octane, Red/Ace, everyone involved in any past dramatic situations (Including small ones like the "Yo Mom" drama a few months back), everyone reading this, and probably a lot more people that I can't think of. You're all guilty. Feel the guilt. (Once again, I only added this part in a dumb attempt to look rude. You think that's completely pointless? Well, you're probably right… But I did it anyway, sue me.)

What about you Nutella, you can't go five seconds without going "UwU! My friends are soooooo special."

…True, I do talk about them a lot. But that's because I really appreciate them and sometimes, especially around all this anger, sadness, and depression, they tend to forget it, so I forcefully shove it down their throats every chance I get. Wouldn't want people as precious as them to be sad now, would we? Guess I'm a creepy, platonic yandere now, time to slaughter people >:D (NOTE: The ending to that was a joke. Please don't kill me or go off and on about how people should be allowed to be sad. Please. Far too many arguments start from my bad taste in humor being taken the wrong way.)

I also don't respond to vents with something like "Don't be sad, people out there have been through way worse than you and still manage to smile, so why aren't you smiling?", mostly because I'm only 40% idiot and know better than to say something that hurtful for the sake of Positivity™. I try and keep my excessive "Power of friendship! Life is beautiful! You beans deserve all the love in the universe!!! ^u^!" stuff to chats/conversations it's meant to be in. I wouldn't want "fake" negativity in the Happy And Drama-Free Chat, I also wouldn't want "fake" positivity in the Venting Space chat. Yes, I realize I messed that up the other day when I said something positive here, and for that, I apologize. I'll save this place for angrily regretting all my decisions next time.

I can't believe I just spent an hour or so writing this all because somewhere, hidden deep in a past rant, I made the tiny mistake of adding the word "fake" before "negativity", causing people to completely ignore what I said and accuse me of calling them fake, even though I'm called fake all the time for my positivity.

…Which, mind you, is completely real, and before you start saying "bUt nUtEllA, yOu'Re jUsT a cHiLd wHo'S nEvEr SeEn ThE rEaL WorLd, sO tHeReForE yOuR pOsiTiviTy iSn'T rEaL!!!1!1" how about I reverse that for you: "YoU'rE jUsT aN aDuLt/oLdEr tEeN, yOu sTiLL hAvEn'T eXpEriENceD aLL tHe JoYs liFe hAs tO oFFeR, sO tHeReForE yoUr NeGaTiVitY isN't rEaL!!!1!1". Did that sound stupid? Yeah, probably. Can you see why I dislike that phrase so much now? I'm allowed to have an opinion, even if that opinion isn't "the world is completely broken so why even try". You're also allowed to have an opinion, even if that opinion isn't "this world is beautiful so we should appreciate every moment of it and live our best lives". We're both allowed to have opinions and that doesn't make us fake. Alright? Okay.

This took me way longer to write than it should've and now I'm bitter. >:(
(In case you're wondering why I didn't say this yesterday when it was still relevant, that's because I didn't sleep yesterday and if I tried to type anything long on my computer, I'd get a headache. I wouldn't have written this whole thing if it wasn't such a big deal that an entire thread ended up being created because of it…)

Badly fortnite dances
Great speech.

*Claps slowly _{and rudely.*}

Cheers, I'll drink to that, bro.

In all honesty, that makes so much more sense, and I really appreciate the explanation about what you meant. Last night, it kinda just sounded like(to my sleep deprived brain[Sage remembered the word!]) you were just…negating any experiences or slightly negative feelings people were having. Positivity is good! But there's a difference between lifting a person up or saying that they can rant/talk if needed and being there for them, and the all-too-common 'you'll be fine!', if that makes sense?

I'm assuming that the musicals thing is done, but Mary Poppins doesn't really have much romance besides Mary and Bert and that's not even much of a romance.
Also Eris you should listen to Ghost Quartet it's about a woman travelling to alternate timelines to put a curse on a man who cheated on her, and has some amazing music!

Lmao nutella I feel like you really called me out in that last one, which is kinda weird bc today I was thinking about the positivity argument we had a while back

okay can some people give me genuine insults
like stuff you don't like about me
i've just been wondering and i think this is probably the place to find out

Alright… Be warned, I might get salty here:

Sometimes, you do this thing
Where you spell a word really wrong
and then I have to re-read it until I know what the blep you're talking about
and then I figure out what you meant and everything's fine.

In other words, you're great, I'm just bad at reading.

I've heard of this! But haven't actually heard it yet. XD But now that you reminded me I shall check it out!

Guys I'm gonna ask that we stop doing stuff like this ^^^ I don't like the fact that people are searching for people to bring them down. That's not the point of the chat.

Last thing-

Nutella, great speech and thank you for explaining your point, but don't tell people to feel guilty about being negative. People are allowed to feel what they feel towards things and should not be told to feel bad about that. People should embrace how they feel because it makes it easier to work through it. Especially the bad. Feeling guilty about being negative or having negative thoughts makes people push it down, therefore creating a bigger problem later on when they explode.
I know you were just trying to 'call people out', which is why I'm not upset, just telling you how your words could have an effect on people that already have a hard time with their feelings.

I also must apologize because I'm not going to feel guilty about being negative or whathaveyou mostly because I don't think that I am. It's a part of my personality to be blunt, frosty, rude, and straightforward and I like that about myself. I know that is not something that a lot of people are used to and they think that I'm a bitch, but at the end of the day, I got a lot farther in life because I don't care what people think about my personality. Or how I conduct my life and I think a lot of more people should live this way because I am happy and they should be too. I may be a bitch in all of your eyes, but this bitch is fully confident in everything she is. So please just relax on telling people how they should feel.

(Full disclosure–because I feel like I have to add this shit at the end of every message now–I am NOT mad at Ella. I am NOT saying this to be rude. I am simply EXPLAINING how her speech affected me. Nothing else.)

Okay.

I know this is a pathetic response but I can't think of anything better to say, especially since I agree with you there, no one should have to feel guilty for their emotions.

Glorious

Now back to our regular scheduled program: Rudeness.

You teenagers are salty as hell about everything

Also Eris you should listen to Ghost Quartet it's about a woman travelling to alternate timelines to put a curse on a man who cheated on her, and has some amazing music!

It's so good!
I recommend listening to it on a kind of gross, foggy, and rainy day, the spookiness is amplified by the weather then!
And it has Brittain Ashford and Gelsey Bell in it and they both have beautiful and unique voices!!

Idk if this counts as rude, but I hate it when people drop out of plays or musicals because they don't get the role they want. This might just be because I have never once gotten the role I've auditioned for, but it's about the experience! Who cares if you're Pepper and not Annie, no one's stopping you from having a good time! You're still in a show, you're still experiencing it, and you can learn so much from just being there!

I know! I was accused of it a few times because I dropped out of a musical to help my mum who was getting surgery.

Like, for context, I've been in 5 shows, and I haven't ever gotten the part I've auditioned for.
In Looking Glass Land, I went out for the Red Knight and got a White Pawn.
Bye Bye Birdie I went out for Mama and got a Reporter.
Midsummer Night's Dream I went out for Bottom and got Oberon (which ended up being amazing, but the point still stands!)
In Sock Puppet Hamlet (not reaaaally a show, but still) I wanted to be Hamlet but got Laertes.
The Snow Queen I went out for the Robber Woman and I got a Goblin.
And in Into the Woods I went out for Jack's Mom and got Ensemble.

It's one thing to drop out because you have a family conflict, or you realize you have a conflict with a sport or something, but to drop out because you didn't get the part you wanted? Really? Not everyone can get the lead, and 9/10 times the person cast as that part ends up being perfect.
One of my favorite people from TSQ dropped out of ITW because she got Ensemble and not Cinderella, which is so stupid!
