If you have Facebook then I'm sure you are used to getting invites for applications, parties, and fan clubs every time you log in. Its annoying but we deal with it to stay connected to our friends and acquaintances. These things are the items that keep Facebook interesting for hours a day. However, the thing that still boggles my mind is all these people with fan clubs for themselves. I'm not talking about famous people who have actual fans that make them clubs to show support. I'm talking about the people that I work with who have created themselves their own fan profile's. Not only do they create these themselves but they actually have the nerve to email me and ask you and I to join.
It is not normal to ask people to be your fan, this is something that needs to be allowed to happen naturally. I do check most of them out to see if they have some hidden talent that I never noticed before. Sadly most of them do not, and by most I'm mean like 9 out of 10. Sometimes its like they are not even trying. They don't have video or song links, they are not famous on Youtube, they simply have a page with their head shot and a bunch of 19 year old fans who will click yes on anything you ask them to. Its mind boggling that people are so narcissistic to think, "I know we are barely friends, but maybe you'll want to be my fan", "no, no I'm not famous I thought maybe you'd want to join this site Ive dedicated and started for myself. I really do chuckle every time I get new request to join one. I may be one of the most self centered, self promoting people that I know and I don't even have my own fan site (yet, ha ha). If I wont join Mila Kunis or Justin Timberlake's Fan page when I would marry either one of them, then you can damn sure guarantee that I'm not trying to be your fan. Trust. Its no offense to you, you are just not important enough or famous enough for me to pretend like I care. People who click yes are really just doing it so that you will stop sending them requests, I still refuse, I would rather deny you every time I sign on than succumb to the pressure. You guys very well may be famous some day, but for the time being focus more on singing in your mirror and less on trying to have fans pre-fame.
In 2 months when I'm adding you to my fan club. Disregard this blog :).....

i would be a fan of you even if you didn't start this blog. lol
People do that? I've just signed up to Facebook and I'm still shocked that there wasn't a full page warning telling me how to hide the farm animals application. People are weird. The things I have to suffer just to be able to see pictures of friends of friends...
