Stop saying you have haters!

This is one of those trends that now bothers me: calling out your haters. It mostly bothers me because I'm quite sure they don't exist.

I hear it a lot from DJs, people who work in service sector jobs, and promoters at bars. It's not that I have a problem with letting a person know they are bothering you, but the arrogant conceit that you're being made famous, or that your haters are jealous to me is insane. In fact, sometimes I notice the "haters" in fact don't even give two craps, and it fact the Hatee is jealous of the Hater.

Very odd phenomenon indeed, and only exacerbated by Facebook.



In fact, I'm sure haters don't "make you famous". In fact, seems to me like all the drama drags you down and costs you major, major business opportunities.

My friend is very much like this. Screaming about his haters, and he's broke, of course, and works freelance, and never makes his employers sign contracts, and doesn't hold them to task when they underpay him. No, he simply accepts it, parties afterwards, blows that money, they blames them for not paying him enough. Then after the business relationship blows up later on he starts screaming about his haters.

It seems to be a philosophy of some very arrogant and delusional people.

 

I just read the wiki.

That show would've been better if they actually had guest's who were successful.

Levi Johnston: "So Billy, what do you think of me now?"
Billy the Hater: "Levi, do you watch the news? Do you own a mirror? You're still a goddamn f*** up!"

 

They had Joe Francis on the show? What would he have to say to someone who doubted him?

"See I grew up to be the horrible rapist you always said I would "

 

Kind of agree with you there.

I like Facebook, and I put up major things, like buying a home or getting a pet, or how cute said pet is, but fueling drama and or airing out personal BS shouldn't be done on Facebook. That's just stupid.

 

Fact: Nobody hates Kevin Bacon. Kevin Bacon has no haters.

 

Most of the time the "hate" is more "pointing out how irresponsible and immature that person is".
