When I imagine people as if they were animalsI've been a social site since the beginning, and I come across a lot of different people. Mostly because I'm a writer and I promote my books on social sites, but I'm a social person as well, and I like to meet new people. Unintentionally, I started comparing people to animals and imagined how they would fit the popular (not necessarily true) behavior of certain animals. This is a fun post and I don't mean to offend people or animals. Enjoy! The lionThey pounce on every post they come across and leave angry, dismissive comments. They ridicule people and try to bully them into accepting their views but usually don't explain their own views clearly. They want attention and want people to follow them but don't really know how to lead. They keep adding nasty comments and get into a verbal fight with everyone which leads to vulgar language and even threats. They think: I know I'm right, but they're too dumb to understand. The boarThey share mostly political posts that fit their beliefs. They viciously attack everyone with different political views but refuse to get into discussions with others. They think: I'm not gonna waste my time with stupid idiots. The snakeThey visit the secret and closed group they belong to every day and scan the posts. They stay in the background and never like or comment on any post, but they carry the information they find to other groups and present them as their own ideas. They think: Keep posting, my lovelies, so I can reap what you sow. The monkeyThey read everyone's comments and then state their opinion which is usually the summary of the most liked and replied comments. They think: They like me! OMG, they really like me, and they think I'm smart! The hyenaThey have antisocial, and even psychopathic personalities. They don't read happy posts and get angry and jealous when people post about their success. They like to read posts about tragedies, pain, and suffering. They might leave a sad face emoji yet they don't feel sympathy or empathy toward anyone. They think: They think I like them or feel sorry for them. Morons! The Blue JayThey're the first to report tragedies and bad news. They warn everyone about food recalls, internet scams, fake news, and any negative news they can find. They think: I must warn everyone. Oh, my God! I have to post this right now! The peacockThey're narcissistic people who work hard to succeed but hate everyone who's prettier and more successful than they are. They gossip behind everyone's back and enjoy the chaos they cause. They put everyone down but they never confront anyone face to face. They think: Hehe! Now they’re not so chummy anymore. The lambThey're always happy - on the surface. Their page is filled with smiles, cute animal videos, and beautiful pictures. They're fierce defenders of their religion but try to disagree with their beliefs, they turn into a roaring lion. They think: Don’t show your pain. Be nice to everyone. The owlThey don't post much but when they do, it's always worth reading. Their posts are well thought out and they have realistic views on just about anything. They think: This post is not correct, let me look into it and let them know what I think. The doveThe most empathetic people on social sites. They truly feel sympathy tenfold for every sufferer but when they see too much tragedy, they have to mute the person who always posts about pain and disease. They can’t take the heightened emotions. They also feel the joy of others and like to communicate with happy, successful people. They think: I feel your pain but it’s too much to bear. I can’t take it anymore, I must stay away from you. I hope you enjoyed this fun post. If I left out any type of social animals, let me know in comments. Write Blog Posts and Articles1. Articles can provide authors with presence in the jungle of the net.
If you don't already have an established, well-visited website or blog, it may take years for Google to trust your site and rank in search results. The OAG blog, because we add interesting content daily, have a pretty strong presence in search. 2. Practice makes perfect. The more you write, the better and more unique your writing style will become. Writing articles is a great way to practice and perfect your craft. Your articles will also help you grow your audience and get them excited about your next book. 3. Articles establish your credibility. Having good, interesting, and valuable content is going to establish your credibility which is especially critical for nonfiction authors. Readers and buyers have millions of books and authors to choose from, but something about you and your writing needs to stand out. Finding your articles online through Google searches, or seeing them posted on your social media channels and your book selling sites, will show buyers that you are serious about your writing 4. Writing articles enables you to build your audience. In addition to having a presence on social sites, writing articles also help you build connections. Articles and blogs are another way for people to get to know you and your work. It’s a way for people to hear your voice. A lot of authors write articles for other blogs or website or agree to share and promote another author’s blog with their community. This is a great way to reach new audiences. 5. You get valuable feedback. Okay, there are a few jerks who criticize anything anonymously just because they're jerks. That's why the OAG blog is set up the way that only those can comment who signed into Google. Re-blogged from the Our Author Gang blog I just sent out my March Newsletterand this morning and just got this angry message to my website: He left a fake email and most likely fake nameHe calls himself Justin, so this is my public reply to him:Dear Angry Man, I send out newsletters to my subscribers, because they SUBSCRIBED and are interested. I don't collect emails through tricky giveaways or through unclear, misleading methods. The only two ways anyone can subscribe to my newsletters: 1. If they visit my website and click on the clearly written pop-up window to subscribe. 2. They read my newsletter by clicking on the posted link on social sites and and click the subscribe button. If you subscribed by mistake or no longer interested in receiving my newsletters, please scroll to the bottom of the newsletter and simply click the UNSUBSCRIBE button. Using foul language and marking my newsletter as spam is uncalled for when there is a way to behave in a civilized manner. Thank you! What could be the reason of his anger?Is it because anger feels better than feeling sad, miserable, or desperate?
Anger gives us a temporary feeling of false power. Is it because hiding behind a fake name gives him the freedom to say whatever he wants and hurt anyone who happens to be in his way without consequences? Is it because he's powerless to control his own life or maybe he feels entitled and angry at the world because the things he wants are not handed to him on a silver platter? I wonder... What do you think? |
