HUMOR

It’s Medium’s Fault that I’m a Drama Queen of a Man

Why do you keep clapping to encourage me to share all of the weird shit that keeps happening in my life?

Let’s face it. Before Medium, my life was still full of drama.

I just didn’t tell strangers about it nearly as often before I subscribed and started reading about all the bizarre things that were happening in other people’s lives. I felt less alone and started getting disconcertingly honest about all the unbelievable shit happening in my own day to day existence.

But y’all just kept clapping and I’m a shameless slut for applause!

It’s all your fault. Don’t clap for this. Don’t you dare! You’re just encouraging bad behavior.
