Posted by clippityclopBut that's not a good way to do it.
And by showing someone who you are by gossiping.. would be like, "she didn't go to school. She hasn't worked for anything in her life."
Would show the person you're talking to that you value good work ethic.


Posted by littlenanobyteI've had this happen. It just makes me lol because it shows who the weak pussies are. Amazing how quiet they are most of the time, but the second one of "their own" has the balls to speak up, the rest jump in like the cowards they are.
Because gossip brings the weak and the petty together in a beautiful bonding experience.
Like attracts like. And, as mentioned, the wolf pack mentality.
This is displayed all over DXP. If one person is attacked, then 5 others crawl out of the woodwork to join in.
This is women's favorite sport.

No offense intended, either... I'm currently doing a mental
inventory to check my own guilt level on this one. :/

I don't think it does.
1. as they're gossiping they're judging each other too and deep down they know that they'd talk behind each other backs later so the relationship will always remain superficial.
2. not everyone practice what they preach, I don't think gossips are a solid foundation that reflect people' values. - there's no logical\deep meaning behind gossips, its bunch of empty words...most times people talk trash out of envy and jealousy -

lol
People "bond" over gossip because they're relating on a similar topic/issue, etc. This is what people do on a daily basis, dear- bond over similar backgrounds, issues, topics, etc.
...gossip isn't the best way to do it, but that's the basis of it.
Like in my workplace- all the gossipy ones are the same ones who have the mental acuity of a rock, have no real life goals other than be a bored housewife popping out crotch droppings, and haven't matured beyond high school. They all bond over these similar traits and it shows in their shallow gossip and the stupid shit they talk about, nevermind the lies they tend to spread because they're catty and immature.
Then there's my group of work friends/the rest who aren't these silly bitches- we're all relatively sane and not as petty. We "gossip" (read: vent annoyances) about these lame bitches making the work place an annoying environment for the rest of us haha.
"IF I HEAR ONE MORE FUCKING STORY ABOUT BABIES OR WEDDINGS OR SOME BOY ISSUE I'M LOCKING THEM IN THE WALK IN!"

Posted by littlenanobyteYeah. It's how the worst of the women bond!

Posted by rockyroadicecreamWhat would you call that thing you do? Like when you cowardly avoid confrontation with those who have a perfectly valid argument against yours.... but prefer to jump at every chance to argue against and pick on easy targets such as confused and immature 18 year olds coming here for advice?

I noticed that..
People fear being the one being talked about. So join in gossip for fear of not being apart of the group. Wolf pack mentality.
They also gossip to kind of mirror their own views of what is good and bad in a person, and may be subconsciously trying to show the other person who they are, by gossiping and judging others.
What do you think?
