Warning-- this is just a rant and may come across as catty/bitchy/smug.

Ok, so my story actually is sort of on topic and stems from a post in here yesterday about Instagram. I knew that nothing good would come from this but I googled BM to see if she had one. I know, I know, and I'm a little ashamed, lol. She didn't have one but she did have a Pintrest account and of course I looked at it. It was full of all of the types of things I expected to see-- typical wanna-be middle class, fundamentalist Christian white woman, southern pop culture, arts and crafts MOTY stuff. The thing that caught my eye was the folder of inspirational quotes, motivationals and such.

The big glaring theme was all about grief and loss, getting your heart broken, break ups, learning to let go of your past, etc. That pissed me off because she has never gotten over DH and it's painfully obvious in 90% of her communications with him. That's the whole reason for the worst of her bad behaviors. She is still hurting over him and tries to make him pay for leaving her (even though her own motivational posts tell her to NOT do that).

The only thing that kept me from being angry for very long was seeing the "sources" of so many of these quotes. LMAO. Oh so much misquoted, out of context, idiotic drivel. All of the usual suspects were there, like the Gandhi quotes (hey BM, I thought, you know because you said it to DH and I, that you could never have anything to do with anyone who isn't a Christian. Do you even know who Gandhi was?!?) but there were also some completely unexpected ones for someone like her...like Charles Bukowski. WTactualF. I'm not fond of the man but come on, BM! He is the epitome of everything you find dirty and sinful. But there they were, "quotes" from him (I didn't look them up to see if they really were his or not) on pastel backgrounds decorated with hearts and flowers.

Ok. End rant. Seriously, I do know what the internet is and I do have a Facebook account so you would think that I would be used to this type of stuff but I'm not. I purged my friends list years ago and now I only get stuff I like in my newsfeed. Completely blissfully sheltered and ignorant of this stuff.
