Popular people can't have secrets, eh?

[wordfuzion.livejournal.com]

I don't think OP is saying that. I think OP just finds it annoying when someone has to point out all the time that they're popular or BNFs. Honestly it bugs me too.

[xenafox.livejournal.com]

I get that, but sometimes it is an important part of the secret to them. Being popular puts certain pressures on people. It's not always bragging.

[wordfuzion.livejournal.com]

I realize it does put pressures on people who have to write/etc. to a higher standard because their work is popular. But I just feel when people have to point it out in anything outside of a "I hope I can stick to this standard" type of sense, I don't know, it just rubs me wrong.

[xenafox.livejournal.com]

I suppose it depends on the point/content of the secret.

[wordfuzion.livejournal.com]

Exactly!

[dazzledfirestar.livejournal.com]

I think the point is that claiming you're popular, or feeling the need to mention it time and again kind of negates any credibility to such a claim. But that's just my take.

[xenafox.livejournal.com]

Right but I think mentioning it in a secret where you feel it is important to what you are trying to say is a different issue. I don't think there is really anything wrong with someone saying that they are popular.

[dazzledfirestar.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah, absolutely. If it's related to the secret, yeah throw it up there. The thing is, I tend to think when, say the S!B bit is "OH I'M SO POPULAR WHAT WOULD PEOPLE THINK WITH ME SO POPULAR!?", the OP has a completely valid point. lol

[xenafox.livejournal.com]

I guess we'll agree to disagree...I've never been popular (that I know of O_O) but I still don't think there's anything wrong with someone worrying about that. I mean, everyone is different, said "popular" individual could be someone with a high anxiety disorder or...or ANYTHING so they worry about the mundane "what would they think if they knew this weird thing about me!?"

Ahhh...I suck at wording x.x

[dazzledfirestar.livejournal.com]

Your wording's just fine. :) And I'm all for agreeing to disagree. It's usually the smart way to go! lol

And I can see where you're coming from. There are exceptions. I'll never apply this to every single case (though I may have come off that way... my bad) but I think there might be a fair few cases where it's just a chance to say "Look how cool/loved/fabulous I am?" and really, I don't think that needing to do that makes someone more cool/loved/fabulous. *shrug*

I'm also not fond of complaining about people liking you. That seems like a silly thing to complain about when no doubt there are worse things to have happen than people enjoying what you do. *shrug* But again, that's just me.
