I am on a save-the-world high. I must brag.
There was an awful, slanderous blog that took Frostburg by storm. Titled "Frostburg Dirt," it posted all sorts of untrue and personal things about various FSU students. That hideous pink blog was on every computer screen all day in the SGA office, and it drove me nuts. Some of the things that it said was just cruel. Not only was it the worst display of 7th grade lunch table gossipy BULLcrap, it was all written by an anonymous author.
In a recent post, the author said "Ok, people, let me know if you don't want the site - I'll take it down!"
Well, people were talknig about how dumb it was, but no one has the bollocks to post a comment and say so. I did. I wrote a very polite, but to-the-point, comment telling the author how cowardly and immature he/she was being, nd that I did not want the site to exist any longer.
HOOOOOOOLY COW, it WORKED! Less than 5 minutes later, the blog was taken down. I feel fantastic that I was the only person to stand up and voice my opinion, without a curtain of anonymity, and I was listened to!
I just had to brag that I stood up for something that I believed in and action was taken to better the Frostburg community. It might be back up tomorrow with even worse postings (and probably about me), but for now...I feel triumphant!
