The Disappointing Things People Do At Concerts

Bumping and grinding is not what I paid for.

The Disappointing Things People Do At Concerts

Going to concerts, whether that has been just for a single artist, or for big venues like Bumbershoot, we've all seen people that piss us all off. Instead of enjoying the music and making their time worth the $100+ they paid, they do the most obnoxious things that can ruin our enjoyment.

Snapchatting the concert

OK, I get it. You want everyone to see how you managed to get a ticket to a Bryson Tiller concert, but that doesn't mean you should Snapchat EVERY SINGLE SECOND of that concert. I mean snapshot after snapshot after 15 second videos... it gets rather repetitive. Go enjoy the music you supposedly listen to, since you know, you paid probably $50-$100 for a ticket.

Trying to start a fight over the dumbest things

Concerts definitely can bring out the "rachet" side of people. If I'm standing in front of you, and you can't see, don't go on to call me a b**** about the fact that I got into the venue faster than you did. What's more annoying is trying to start a fight because I "pushed" you. Yes, I was jolted forward by the rest of the impatient crowd behind me, get over it.

Pushing people in every direction

Listen, you're not going to get to the front like that. Everyone is squished to the point where no one could fall over. Jabbing your elbow into my side is not going to make me move any further for you. People sometimes take bathroom breaks, or leave early, so just be patient. You came to LISTEN and enjoy the music, not get to the front after an hour and getting resting b**** looks from the security guards.

Making out with some rando

I cannot stress this annoyance enough. Since my preferred taste in music is hip-hop/rap, I tend to see this more than I'd like to. Seeing a girl who looks like she's 12 completely plastered while grinding and making out with some random sweaty guy is not what I paid to see. Plus it's obvious that you really didn't come to see your favorite artist, but instead, came to lose some self-dignity with your boobs hanging out, nice.

A guy that tries to grind with you

I'm sorry, but what do you think you're doing? I'm trying to have a fun time enjoying this song and dancing with my friends, did I ask you to come up behind me and put your hands on my hips? If you do this, then please stop. NO girl enjoys this.

Band-wagoners

It's cool to see how many people show up to a venue, but it's frustrating to see someone who goes to the concert and barely knows the artist entirely. After seeing The Weeknd perform, a girl walking in front of me goes "Omg, I really liked that 'or nah' song!" Come on... if you don't know the artist, or even know a significant number of songs, then don't bother showing up. Or at least don't make it so obvious that you aren't a real fan.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
