Certain People Are Jerks

Some people I've watched online, from just a little while to what must be years now, are beyond frustrating. I get that everyone has problems and hey, do what you have to do to sort it out. But being pompous or acting a total jerk doesn't get excused by stuff like that. Given up on one certain individual for the last time today, doubt he'll be the only one. I don't enjoy seeing or hearing jerks.
Oh, and if I ever become pompous, or arrogant, or tell people who have been loyal for so damn long not to post on my wall, then please by all means give me the stick I deserve. I hope to never become such a miserable, ungrateful jerk.
(Rare little rant over. I promise not to make this a running thing.)

And if I got what you mean, are you talking about people who use their life problems to justify how arrogant they are?
Yes, although they don't have to state it explicitly, like the guy who I gave up on today. There's a difference between a cry for help, and shrugging your shoulders and basically be like "hey don't look at me, life's not being great with me so Imma be rude to all you guys".
Though, I get what you mean. I've dealt with more than my fair share of people like that. And, while I admit that sometimes I explicitly state what problems I'm going through, I never do so to, say, put down others who also have problems, or guilt trip others into giving me pity and attention. Most, if not all, times I do it, it's to vent my emotions at that point in time, and to let people know that I'm generally in a bad mood. And even then, I still try not to be mean about it anyway.
Like, your little rant just now. I think you should say what's on your mind more often; good or bad, angry or sad. Let's people know what and what not to say or do, y'know?
I guess meaybe it wasn't so much the fact he keeps using excuses. This guy has been in and out of the fandom god knows how many times now, and loads of people have remained loyal and keep showering him with praise, which is fine. But he just keeps messing with his fans, and writes stuff on his page telling people they've not to post shouts or that they've not to reply to his journals he posts. What a complete douchebag.
Anyway, like I've said I'm no longer following him anymore so I don't have to worry about his nonsense anymore. All is good now I appreciate my followers and I think it's only courteous for others to do the same. Certainly don't be a jerk to them. And I agree, I don't believe people should bottle up feelings so I'm glad I got this off my chest
