14 Reasons Why I’m Fed Up Of The “XX Things/ Signs/ Reasons” Articles
My Facebook newsfeed greets me with posts like these on a daily basis:
21 Things That Your Mom Never Told You. Ask Her And She Will Tell You…
126 Places You NEED To Visit Before You Die. Really. Pack Your Bags. Go!
30 Reasons Why Kittens Are The Best Pets… Like Ever. Choooo CUTE.
89 Signs That Prove You’re An Indian. I Almost Died Reading #74. LOLOLOL.
… and I’m fed up of this sh*@.
F!@# you and your “signs”.
There are probably thousands of things my mom never told me, because she probably didn’t care about those things enough to tell me, or they were insignificant things that didn’t really affect me, or because she simply forgot. Just because you wrote this article, I’m supposed to introspect on my entire childhood and see if she never told me all those things you’re telling me she didn’t tell me.
Will you be paying for my travel expenses? The 126 scenic pictures you just posted makes me want to quit my job and go on a world tour. But I can’t really travel the world without any money, can I?
I don’t need your “reasons” to prove I’m an Indian. I have my home, family, friends, job, life, passport, PAN card, tax records, and pretty much everything here. But I just forgot one day that I was an Indian. Thank you for reminding me.
I don’t like kittens. I’m allergic to them. Have YOU, the author, ever held a kitten before? Before presenting a highly shareable GIF-filled article about cute kittens doing weird stuff, did you consider to think how many minutes of my day you’ve wasted wishing I had a kitten.
And because you don’t understand how regular articles are written, here’s presenting 14 reasons why I’m fed up your articles…
1) They are stupid
2) They add no value to my life… whatsoever
3) They are everywhere I go
4) How do you even come up with all this sh*@
5) People keep tagging me while sharing your posts
6) I have to keep going to ‘Timeline Review’ to HIDE those tags
7) People actually leave comments and discuss those points
8) GIF’s make me crazy. I hate anything with an Infinite loop
9) My girlfriend thinks I don’t love her after she reads “23 signs that proves your boyfriend loves you” because I don’t do #19
10) The article titles are so click-worthy, that I hate ’em
11) I can’t fathom how you even come up with so many points
12) Because I’m already running out of points and I need to go till 14
13) Here’s another point because I’m already exhausted
14) And we have made it to 14. Happy?
