There aren’t really many polite things that I can say about people who are trying a LITTLE too hard to be what they’re not. When I took photos for a concert I saw people who were really into their music and whatever, I also saw people who would be called posers by some of my friends.
The people who had the BEST performances were the people who just acted like themselves. You don’t need to go into a persona or whatnot so that people will like you. Most (MOST) people can smell bullshit a mile away. It also doesn’t help when you can’t even keep the illusion up. Deception isn’t worth it when you don’t have the ability to sustain it.
I’ve also gained knowledge about specific sets of people in the religious thing that I’m in. Some people take themselves a little too seriously, ending up as jackasses. Some people are REALLY into putting out something big but don’t really know how to. Some people aren’t really interested. Some people accept themselves and work with it. Some people do what they can and it’s perfect. Some people try too hard.
What about me? I sweat the small stuff too much. I’m not kidding; I’m into the dealing with the morals and the undercurrents. I didn’t really care about the concert because I knew it would mostly suck and it would amount to stealing money from people but seeing as I was obliged to go then I made the most of it.
P. S. A spiel is rarely cool, especially when the drama is a little too high. No offense (I love how “no offense” actually means that you mean offense), but you weren’t that good, AT ALL.
P. P. S. One MC is okay, two is the norm, and three is a bit much unless the chemistry works but more than four is just wrong…
P. P. P. S. Chanting out your little group’s name during an event where it’s supposedly under the main umbrella is tactless. I understand that you don’t know better but please…
