Three Things That People Do To Look Cool... But Really End Up Looking Stupid

I'm sick of people trying to impress other people. The emo kid from Little Miss Sunshine said it best, "Life is one beauty pageant after another. Fuck that!" One might not be aware that they're just blindly following fads and trends regardless if they make any sense or not, but really. Take a good look at yourself and how you carry yourself. Is it really you under there, or is it just a collaboration of all that is considered to be "cool"? Here's how most people make themselves look like jackasses.

-First and foremost, wearing sunglasses inside or at night. Sunglasses were created to stop the sun bothering your eyes. When a person wears sunglasses in inappropriate situations, it says "don't look me in the eyes, I don't want you to see who I really am; I don't like who I am". Liars wear sunglasses to prevent the detection of their dishonesty.

-Saying WTF, OMG or any of those abbreviations verbally. It just doesn't make sense. These abbreviations are used to decrease typing and increase communication. Besides, OMG has just as many syllables as "oh my god", so there's no abbreviation value there, and WTF has almost twice the amount of syllables as the actual phrase.

-Making fun of other people. It's sad, but people actually think that making fun of other people makes them look cool. Whenever they're out with their friends, they just have to point out everything that makes everybody around them imperfect. One might get a few cheap laughs out of oinking at the fat guy, or knocking the books out of a nerd's hands, but in so doing, they have revealed a deep dark personal truth. Insecurity. Cowardess. Hunt or be hunted. There is something deep within themself that they're working hard to cover up, so they draw attention to the flaws of others. It's parasitic, really.
