Assumptions

[intro] A rant. I'm not angry, just pretty irritated when this happens. It's just a "sort-of" response to some remarks made to me that I find out of place.

[start]
Please don't think that all Facebook users are the same.

What, just because I'm on Facebook pretty often doesn't mean that I'm on it 24/7, doesn't mean that I don't have time to do anything else, doesn't mean anything! You're not there, how would you know what I do with my time? And why would you care anyway?

Just because you know a few things about me, it doesn't mean that you know more than that. So stop making assumptions, 'cos it makes me mad!

Don't think you can read into hidden meanings, what do you know anyway?

Sometimes I say something and some people think that they understand what I "really mean". So they reply as if I had said that thing that they thought I "really meant". But guess what? You're wrong! So if you don't know what I mean, just don't assume anything! In short, just don't assume anything, period.
[end]

[sources] Based on real events.

Anyway, I find it strange that some people don't know pretty "basic" stuff about me. But these same people would make those assumptions as if they knew me very well and could read into my mind. And well, they end up making the wrong assumptions.

Quand on ne sait pas, on laisse libre son imagination. Et qui sait où elle emmènera? Peut-être conduirait-elle vers la vérité, mais plus souvent vers l'erreur.
