One Reason I like Twitter

...it forces a person to be concise. 140 character limit, no more. It is a lot easier to update Twitter than to update a blog. Especially for me, because I think too much and delete and re-write multiple times. Of course, Twitter can be incredibly inane. But it's a nice way to get something out there, especially if it has been stuck in your mind for a while.
I was going to write more on this topic, but I seem to have passed the limit. So, goodbye

Hate is too strong

My good friend J-Train posted a while back about hate vs love and indifference. I guess I should revise my previous post, because really, I don't hate Friends. I don't hate much of anything, really. Hate is a very strong word. Instead, I will say that I am indifferent. The only times I encounter Friends is when I hear others talk about it. I never watch the show. It is barely on my radar. It is only when I hear references to it or read articles about it that my annoyance comes back. Ok, I'm not completely indifferent....let's say indifference with a touch of dislike.
Because Hate means that I actively think about how much I dislike the show. That is too much of an effort, and a silly TV show does not deserve that much consideration.
I will admit though, I am fueled by others rampant love of Friends, so perhaps that makes me more combative and militant in my dislike. But again, I am really a peaceful person. I will try to refrain from using the term Hate in the future. It's just not worth it!
