Hello Readers, 

Welcome to the rant column.

I am pretty sure that via the topic above, some people already have an idea about this rant. I like social media and the way it has added fun, juice to the lives of lots of people especially the young ones but the Fad that comes with it is becoming very pathetic. I was with a couple a ladies some days ago and one of them made  statement as we were about taking pictures, she said, ”If the the picture would be on instagram, we shouldn’t post it because she has worn the outfit on her and  has taken  pics with it and posted on instagram prior to this day” I was shocked and I couldn’t fathom why you shouldn’t be able to wear anything and post it? It’s yours for crying out loud. I was still trying to ponder on that statement in my head when her friend said,” You know, I agree, it won’t be totally nice for the gram”. Jeeez! So, you can’t wear your clothes in peace again?

If we keep this mentality we will have an array of fake individuals even though we have them already. The problem is, what would people say? Wouldn’t they think it’s just that cloth I have? Excuse me, is theirs? Did they buy it for you? You used your money to buy it so you can wear it as many times as possible, on the gram and off it. This mentality is totally uncalled for and way below the adequate human level of rational thinking. The truth is, You live for The Gram,You die for the Gram! I hope that wasn’t harsh.

Have a great week!
