Though people sort of need your permission to talk to you, they do not really need one to talk about you.

We call talking about other people’s personal lives ‘gossip’ only if we aren’t or weren’t part of the conversation.

Showing off is more ridiculous in instances where the thing that is being shown off was bought on credit.

The real reason the number of things that are shared via social media every single minute is so astronomical is because, whenever they each do, most users do not share or say something because they believe they have something worth remembering; they do mainly or only because they fear being forgotten.

There is no such thing as a boring person when you are lonely or extremely bored.

Some people talk about other people’s failures with so much pleasure that you would swear they are talking about their own successes.
