Yeah, about that hypocritical post…
Posted on August 26, 2014
Earlier today I wrote a relatively harsh (for my standards) blog that took some broad swipes at people who follow the Big Brother Live Feeds. I am writing this to apologize for my condescending attack on people who condescendingly attack my sister. I didn’t mean to offend everybody who watches the live feeds. I was responding specifically to a few people who have said some ugly things about the family. I am Christine’s big brother and it is my contractual duty to rein fists of anger upon those who would insult her. Or, in the event physical fists aren’t practical: word-fists. I’m not gonna lie, I was in an ugly, gross place when I wrote that blog: the bathroom.
I realized I am no better than the Twitter haters (from now on I will refer to them as my Future Friends) when I insult them, albeit in a less profane and more grammatically correct mann-… Nope, sorry. Not gonna go there.
Now you may be wondering why don’t I take the previous blog down? Well, I feel it’s an important benchmark in my growth as a human. I can look back at the old me of 4 hours ago and see how far I’ve come.
Here is an olive branch representing the peace I hope we will share now
(and I am not going to try to beat you over the head with it as that is no longer me)
I understand there may be some legitimate reasons to dislike Christine or her gameplay. But some of the insults have been low blows for things she can’t help. I have helpfully compiled a list of things she has been insulted for, starting at the top with things that we learned in grade school are not appropriate to make fun of folks for down to her actions, which are fair game:
– Her looks
– Her gluten allergy
– Her sniffling or nose blowing
– Her laugh
– Her hating on other HGs
– Her Cody-cuddling (Cod-dling?)
All that being said, I’d like to make amends. Even though we may be far apart and have different views on HGs (except Donny, we ALL love him), we no doubt also have a lot in common.
For example, I am sure we can all agree that we all love the following:
– Big Brother
– Puppies
– Cinnamon Rolls
– That smell right before it rains
So next time, when we want to call each other a #%£¥ and #<*{ or even £€#%ing %#€£head, or heaven forbid, a stinky poopface, let’s remember that deep down, that person probably also enjoys a good Seinfeld rerun just like you (I’m aging myself, aren’t I?).
