I'm really tired of people who post on LJ but NEVER say anyting[sic] about themselves. I can troll the internet for news. That's not why I'm on livejournal. If just wanted to read about pointless shit that is going on all over the country and world, I wouldn't have wasted my time setting up a blog. Really.
Blogs are meant to be all those things. Specifically, they're meant to be whatever their owner wants them to be. Blogs started out primarily as political/news feeds with a little commentary, but have evolved and now many blogs are much more personal. See popular and old blogs like Wonkette for the "original" blog format. See www.ILikeBoysAndMiddleSchool.com for exclusive personal info.
It just so happens that I'm interested in posting links to news and politics, and writing about my thoughts on them, as well as writing a sort of diary and chronicle of what's happening in my life. If you don't like it, join an LJ group for thirteen year-old girls. If someone you want to know about isn't forthcoming about their personal lives in their *public* blogs, then ask them yourself, but don't expect them to cater to you on their blogs. They didn't waste their time setting up a blog just to write what you want them to.
I don't even think I'm one of the people you were talking about, but I think your post is ridiculous.
