Social Animals?

What happens when you feel lonely?

1. Pick up your smartphone-log into Facebook / twitter / Instagram and swipe through what the world is upto. Get jealous that you cannot do the same cool things that they are. Shut the app in anger. Curse yourself and feel even more lonely. More than social networking sites they have become newspapers and the main source for everlasting lonliness, fakeness, KATTA to be precise where all gossip is put up, people ridiculed because here you have the support of 1000 other fake people who do not care a damn about the truth or lies and just hit like or share without going into the depths of things. 

In reality you would not have the guts to even speak a word to the person in front of you leave alone gather a crowd of 10 people. Today I ridicule someone, tomorrow that person is in front of me and i won't even recognise him. I mean how many people and how many things have been ridiculed on these so called social networking sites and  forgotten by the next day?

2. Again pick up your smartphone-log into Facebook/Twitter/Instagram but this time for a different reason. Use it as a virtual dating site. Stalk at 100 different profiles of guys and girls that fancy your taste. Try to talk to them, poke them, urge them to come out on date with you and then what? I guess you know the reply.

If that does not work post messages such as "UR KEWL" "UR BEUTIFUL" "S*** A**" on their pictures. I mean who speaks such language?

Simply speaking why can't people stop making it a dating or stalking place and keep it the way it was designed to be? A social networking place to meet old friends, view different travel locations in their pictures etc etc.(I know it was designed to stalk people by Zuckerberg but then i was told to use it to find friends).

Yes man is a social animal but to such a extent that everything for him is virtual. Birthday wishes virtual. Engagement announcement virtual. Divorce virtual.

Forget that. The best part is a girl puts up a pic of herself up but only wants a few people to see them. If someone she does not like likes the picture and if by chance its a guy he is doomed. 

I am only worried of the term of social animal being completely misused. Everything is online. Everyone wants to be popular. Everyone wants to make fun of the other so that he looks better and is higher on the popularity charts. Memes are made to make fun of people especially successful ones. I'm worried one day this will ruin all our relationships. Entertainment should not be searched for on social networks. Rather just use it to connect via thoughts, picture, videos , stories and inspiration instead of gossip.

Man is a social animal. Not a gossip girl.
