		<description>I hate Twitter as well. I never had a Facebook because the thought makes me sick. I never wanted to be on Twitter, but I was sucked in this year. I follow some of my favorite radio shows and musicians. Some of them have corresponded with me, favorited or retweeted me. I realize it is completely nerdy and pathetic to feel good about that and all it does is exacerbate my mental illness! It gives you a false sense of self worth, it inflates your ego to a certain degree, it definitely puts you in a position to be in a popularity contest and I DESPISE it! I read these comments as inspiration for me to delete my account. In the end, none of it fucking matters and I probably end up making an ass of myself to try to appear witty or interesting. Who cares? And if you don&#039;t have an active social life, it&#039;s really addictive as it gives you the false sense of actually connecting with people. I will delete my account and try to  forget it existed. The only thing keeping keeping there is my ego, but at least I admit it. Thankyou for this.</description>

		<title>Comment on Susan Boyle Proves Ugly People Have Talent by ben</title>

		<description>Perhaps you didn&#039;t realize I was being sarcastic.  This post is more a statement on the general public at large than whether Susan Boyle is truly ugly or not. What I find sad is how the viewing public when she came on stage assumed that she wouldn&#039;t be talented...and then were &quot;blown away&quot; that she could actually sing. People have talent regardless if they are attractive, ugly, handicap, etc... but the media and people in general like these &quot;ugly&quot; duckling stories.</description>

		<description>Don&#039;t call her ugly.  At least she&#039;s beautiful on the inside.  You should really get to know people before you judge.  Some good looking people may not have talent. Get to know a person before judging them!  Don&#039;t just judge out of ignorance!</description>

		<description>I love the graph of twitter-hating :)

Just wanted to make a little note on your take on the Atkins diet and how it &quot;suddenly died&quot; - What I recall happened is that Dr. Atkins died in around the turn of the millenia from heart disease and this pretty much caused all those die-hard atkins fans to not commit to it much longer.

great post! enjoyed it a bit</description>
