I trust nobody when rumours are floating around, not even the source. More than half the time, ALL the people involved in the spread of rumours are fucking drama queens...so why should I believe what ANY person like that says? I've found that the original source is usually the least reliable anyways, lol. It's always some he-said, she-said bullshit.
It's always the same people involved in all the drama too. With that kind of track record, those are just the kind of people I don't even bother to get involved with.
A lot of people I know are horrible gossips, and I can't stand it. For once I'd just like to have a normal conversation about the good things in life...rather than having to listen to everybody's goddamn issues, and all the bad things going on in so-and-so's and what's-his-name's life. It's ugly and unproductive. I hate it because sometimes it rubs off on me, and I'm totally not like that.
It's pretty sad that so many people have so little good going on in their own life that they thrive on hearing about other people's misfortunes. I can't tell you how many times I've had to excuse myself from conversations because I don't want other people's misery to infect me.
People are lazy though, and I guess it's easier to dwell on someone else's bullshit than to change whatever it is in their own life that's causing so much unhappiness.
