No seriously, I am asking. Introverts are awesome people. My wife is an introvert and after 5 years seeing each other every day we are not bored of being with each other ever. In fact, most people who are reserved or introverts are normally great people to have a talk or share things. But somehow most of them thing little of themselves. Why? Why you guys want to be like someone who talks bullshit about things you could even bother to start caring about.
Well, this is a world of extroverts. The key to success is to have personal skills and the ability to sell yourself and make connections. It can be true. But I would die if I had to pretend that the stories most people at work tell are funny. They are not. At least not to me. So then why should I laugh? I am going to tell you why. Because we human beings want to be accepted. We want to belong to a group. We plant that seed when we are kids. They tell you weirdo if you keep it to yourself, your parents encourage you to make friends and be popular, at school they always stress the importance of being part of a group, behave like everyone else to be part of something greater than yourself. B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T. Do you really want to go with your phone hunting this Pokemon things? Do you want to go half naked to a pub and start doing this things that girls do nowadays with their butt? I mean, if you want it is absolutely fine. But I personally prefer to hit myself hard against the wall.
It is not that you have to feel superior to anyone ( although sometimes people really behave like apes and I do not intend to be mean). People are different and for some reason different sometimes is perceived as bad or weird or not desirable. So to hell with that. I never pretend something interest me if it does not. And if someone invites me to do something I do not want to do I just say I do not want to. I do not make up excuses. I never laugh when my boss tells me jokes and I always try to avoid him because the word stupid has taken a total different dimension since he is in the world. I am not mean or make faces because he is not a bad guy. But he is a hyperactive child trapped in the body of a grown-up and I simply do not have the patience to deal with that kind of thing.
I do not think I am an introvert in the same way that some introverts describe themselves. I am not shy and I do not have a problem speaking my mind. But I do not have the need to socialize if I do not want. Neither do I like people as a whole much. I do not share many interest with most people I have to deal with every day. But I know that people like me. Sometimes I do not know why because I tell them that I do not want to talk to them if I do not feel like. And I do tell them that they are annoying when they are (obviously with people who I have the confidence to. Otherwise I won't have a job at this point).I can be months without calling a friend and if they asked me why I just say that I did not feel like. And I do thing it is the write way to behave. I ate when people tell you how nice you are and behind your back they stab you. I do not even say hello to those. Not even at work. They do not have my respect. And I have found that people respect me for these things. Obviously some people may think that I am an arrogant or a sociopath. I don't really care. I never do anything bad to anyone apart from showing them indifference.
What I am trying to say here is that people should not care with other people think about them. In fact, you should be proud that certain people consider you a weirdo if you don't think very high of them. Loads of introverts tell me that they would like to be more social and popular. But they don't. That would be a hell for them. There is absolutely nothing wrong about being different, liking solitude or whatever it is that you feel it is strange. As long as you do not harm anyone people cannot judge you. And if they do you can give them some money to buy a life. We all want to improve some aspects of ourselves and that is fine. But to change the very things that give us our uniqueness is wrong. And deep inside you know it.
Life is whatever you thing life is so do not let anyone tell you how to live it.
Easy way to find people interested in your blog. I am trying to create a community for bloggers where we can help each other

The problem of blogging is that we don't give a fuck about each other
Are you wandering why your blog is not receiving views? Probably you were thinking that by now you would have loads of followers and likes and starting already making money. After all your blog is fantastic, right? Well my friend you are wrong.
Probably everyone things that what they are doing is really great and assume that people will perceive their blog the same way. But guys let's face it. We don't know anything about the world. Donald Trump run for elections, Pokemongo is the new sensation and this Kardassian lady is rich and famous.I don´t really know what people like. Neither you do if you recognize yourself in this post.
But I want to go a step further. You have probably read stuff about SEO and labels and promotion techniques for your blog. I am sure they all work but still it is damn difficult to get something out of all this. There is just way too many people trying to do the same thing. Now, there is something that you can do and I believe it will work or at least help. I am sure you go quite often to all these social media craps. So if you are writing a blog try to think about people who do the same. You may have absolutely no interest about a blog which main theme is Star Trek. But someone may do. So you could like and share the post and even go into the link. And even click in the publicity if there is any. Why? What are you getting for this? Absolutely nothing, zero. But the other person does and it takes you literally 3 seconds to do all that and no money. If people get into this mindset we could at least imrprove our current status. It is the power of togetherness.
I know all this seems a pile of bullshit but I do believe it is possible. I have seen many situations when the will of a group of people have achieved something. I am already doing it but I do not see many people doing the same. It is very easy to get frustrated and just say "fuck it" people just don't care so why should I.
Well, here is the deal. You can write a comment in this blog, in Google +, follow me or follow the blog or whatever you want for me to notice you. I promise I will do the same and try to share and like and go to your post as much as possible. And if a good bunch of people do this we can actually make something out of this. I hope someone will react to this because I doubt any person is reading my book.

Buying a house or renting in Dublin is a fucking disgrace
I am seriously pissed. It is not only that renting a piece of shit that some may call apartment costs half of your salary. Neither is the fact that it is REALLY and I mean REALLY difficult to rent and apartment for a family. It is not even the fact that loads of Irish people have to really struggle to save a chunk of money to be eligible to pay a ridiculous mortgage (at higher rates that our European neighbors) to buy a box of shoes. What really bothers me and gives me this feeling of helplessness is the fact that people are making money out of it. Seriously what is wrong with people? They already have tons of money. Now I have to read about this vulture funds and how their speculation are doing real damage in the Irish population. This is a country where people are still suffering from this stupid recession. I agree there are more jobs. But if you have a look at the quality of the market it is not a great improvement at all. Salaries are worse, conditions a disgrace and now to get a permanent job is a fucking luxury. The outsourcing companies are also getting a bigger chunk as the situation gets worse and worse. I am fucking tired of wankers taking advantage of the situation while people are getting more and more desperate.
So if you have a child on its way and you want to rent an apartment do not expect them to get rid of the bed because you need space for the cot. Why? There are loads of people queuing so they are not give a fuck about your problems. So you will have to stay in your shitty apartment with no elevator and be afraid about having to tell the landlord about the new situation. Isn't it ridiculous that you have to worried about losing your apartment and not being able to find another apartment? How the fuck are we in this situation? And cannot the government do something? Is this stupid law about not increasing the rent in 2 years( that landlords have already find a work around) the best they can do?. Call me crazy but maybe it has something to do with people who are in power being owners and wanting to bring the prices up. But I know it sounds to crazy. It has probably something to do with the poor bankers not being able to give mortgages. Poor things. I really feel sorry for them.
So if the renting has gone up so much then we can try to buy. Good fucking luck with that.
People even bid the actual price of the house. Real drama is happening in this country my friends.I am not that worried as I expect to flee the country in a year or two but I hope people will be concern about it. And I hope someone will shed light on this matter soon.
I know I should be putting pictures and all that to get more trafic and create more impact but I just don't give a fuck.

Pokemon hunting...you gotta be fucking kidding me
No seriously, what the fuck is the world thinking? I have just heard about the whole thing today. So you go all around a city with your phone trying to see a yellow rat? I really think I am getting too old for all this. I could live with the lady who wears a coat made of steaks and even with these hipsters who trained a hamster to be on top of their head and wear Steve Urkel's clothes. That's all good. People can do whatever the fuck they want to do since they do not include me in those games. But today I saw people walking around with their phones. And by people I mean grown-ups. I really think it is the stupidest thing that I have ever heard in my whole live (because I still refuse to believe Trump was running in elections).
When did we start to behave like crazy people? We starting using the damn phones for everything and then we continued with the selfie thing. And seriously, I could care less about what you are eating for breakfast. But now. Now we are hunting virtual retarded animals with superpowers with our phones. Global destruction 1 humanity 0. It is not people doing it what really bothers me. It is to look at the world and see that I do not really understand it. Facebook, Twitter, Winder, Wander, Shitter, Shatter....who can keep up with all this shit. I definitely cannot. The world is going insane. We are living and producing way over the world possibilities. The world is running out of resources and all of that to go hunting fucking Pokemons.
We have really loads of things to worry. The world is going bananas, We are at the verge of the second global economy and there are loads of latent wars and conflicts. But I will sleep better tonight knowing that we are all together hunting Pokemons.
Sorry if you are hunting them. It is not my intention to offend anyone (not that many people will read this anyway). I only intend to express my deep worry about the direction the world is taking.
I hope we all going to see the end of this sheer madness soon.
