The stress, the cooking, the work, the presents, the weather (too damn hot), the worry about possible family fall-outs.............. Truth is, I'm too damn lazy for it all. (curls into foetal position on the lounge) (Gets up and pours a glass of wine) Still too lazy....

And for god's sake, if you still want me to do a favor, ask - and ask nicely - don't just _tell_ me. You're not my boss! gadgetgirl on "Dear..." http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/topic/dear/page/11#post-287371 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 03:04:44 +0000 gadgetgirl 287371@http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/ Dear Facebook, how do I change my relationship status without all and sundry knowing?

I want to go back in time to when you didn't get tales of the rich and shameless thrown at you all the time, and food was real not made in nasty factories, and clothing labels were on the INside of clothes and no-one cared about them, and people who wanted jobs got jobs, and the gap between rich and poor was much narrower, and you could be a socialist without being seen as the anti-christ. But I want to keep my computer, kindle and internet of course.......

Your co opting of ancient fashions past doesn't make me think you're ironic, but rather mean spirited in a way you don't even see for yourself. No, carrying around a victrola attached to your iPod while wearing a cordouroy jacket and head band don't strike me as you being unique. In fact, you look like a xerox copy of about every wannabe in every other big city in the country. No, I haven't heard of that band whose cd you just found in a thrift store bin and no, I don't think your having done so makes YOU an artist. BTW, the music is rubbish and so is your obligatory nasal whining and eye rolling. No, I don't think you're a 'pioneer' because you grow tomatoes in the trunk of your car, are on a gluten free ear wax removal and intestinal foraging competition and also choose to live in the most expensive part of town while your parents pay your way through Life. No, I don't feel sorry for you that you accumulated five figures of college debt getting a degree in ancient greek literature. No, I don't think having just learned how to make a decent cupcake qualifies you for the title of 'artisanal'. No, I don't really want to hear about the last after party, party that you went to where everyone turned old vinyl using a hang nail and declared themselves dj's of eternal auditory redemption. And finally, Yes, I am glad you are moving out to the country because I have a feeling you will find a wake up call there regarding your inflated sense of self the minute you start yabbering at a tenth generation farmer about how to farm properly. Better get the rents ready for your obligatory return back home or figure out really fast how to alter that condescending prat posture before the natives hold back on the fish fertilizer and use you instead. Dear anti hipster, I don't care much for you either and think you're both different sides of the same coin. Bye.

Yes, that stuff I wear is new. And yes, it's expensive stuff. But then again, i hate shopping, and I went with my mum, and she prefers those "brand" shops! In addition, I'm the ignorantest ignorant there is in fashion and my mum isn't much help either, so I need counseling. Yes, I'm lucky that my mum pays for my clothes. But I also get less pocket money than any of you!! And I hate going shopping(Did I already mention that?). Really, I hate it. You know why I get a lot of expensive stuff on one weekend? Because I only go shopping once or twice a YEAR, and the clothes i buy have to 1) Don't get torn till the next time 2) be liked by me till the next time And NO I don't bloody know what brand that is!! I don't f*cking CARE! Sometimes I don't even know what shop it is from! Oh, so you buy cheap stuff that you don't like anymore after a month and buy new stuff then? PLEASE tell me how much less money you spend on it, and how much better that is for the environment!! Just because my (HUGE) bill focuses on one weekend, it's not more huge than yours for half a year. I know you probably mean well when you tell me how expensive you guess that was, what brand it is and how lucky I am. But PLEASE, just "Nice jean" is flattering enough. Don't humiliate me by telling me about cool brands I wear. I couldn't care less for them.
