Spamming My Favourite Celebs Will DEFINITELY Make Them Love Me!!!

If you've ever been on a celebrity twitter account, you'll probably have noticed that some people can be a little... over-zealous. It's common among fans of One Direction to spam them with twenty or so requests for follow backs because it would 'make them happy forever' etc etc.
However, what some people don't seem to realize is that you're a needle in a haystack. Most of the time, they won't even see your tweet, and sometimes, if you spam them THAT much, they'll block you. For instance;

There was a series of other tweets reading exactly the same.
If anyone did that to me, I'd tell them to piss off, but they simply can't purely because of the sheer amount of spamming their fans do. Not only this, but the language.
Hey, baby!
YOU. AREN'T. DATING. HARRY. STYLES.
Someone said to me yesterday someone said "It never ceases to amaze me the amount of sexually frustrated thirteen year olds who fantasize about having sex with the members of 5SOS and One Direction." and that perfectly encapsulates the entire situation.

ANOTHER SITUATION- haters. Before I begin, a pose a philosophical question.
No, but seriously. NEWSFLASH CHILDREN, your idols couldn't give less of a fuck about people hating on them, there's no need to protect them.
E.g. if someone posts a statement such as "Young Kellin Quinn looks like an emo Harry Styles." (Harry Styles wishes, Kellin Quinn is the lead singer of Sleeping With Sirens, his voice is kind of annoying in my opinion, but there is no denying he's one beautiful motherfucker) there is no need for you to start up a fight.
^Kellin Quinn^

For instance, after I made a tweet that simply read "Jesus, I don't know why you'd like One Direction when there are bands like Pantera, that offer ACTUAL talent.". Harsh, perhaps, but nevertheless I got about twelve responses that all went along the lines of
"Ur jus jelus cuz 1D hav soooo much talent."
"STFU EMO!"
"Who dafuq is panterra r they like the vamps"
"Haterz gonna hate!"
"Ignor her @onedirection, dont let her hurt ur feelins"

Calm down!
Another thing is the trending topics. Now, I often look at the trending topics because I'm extremely interested in politics (yes, a 15 year old who likes Pantera and politics, they do exist) but there is nothing worthwhile- it's all #LOUISTOMLINSONAPPRECIATIONDAY and #WELOVEYOUZAYN and all that shit.

THINGS ONE DIRECTIONS FANS MUST LEARN

THE WHOLE FUCKING WORLD DOES NOT REVOLVE AROUND ONE DIRECTION AND THE MANUFACTURED EVENTS IN THEIR UNDESERVEDLY DECADENT LIVES. 

ANYONE WHO RESPECTS MUSIC HAS PRETTY MUCH EARNED THE RIGHT TO TREAT YOU ALL LIKE SHIT, SINCE THE COMMENTS MADE TOWARDS MITCH AND KENADEE LUCKER.

If you aren't aware, frontman of the deathcore band Suicide Silence Mitch Lucker passed away a while back and was met with comments from Directioners such as 'thank God he's dead, what an emo fag.' promptly followed by insults towards his daughter Kenadee such as 'If Kenadee Lucker misses her dad so much why doesn't she just kill herself too and stop whining.'

Oh yeah, Kenadee Lucker was five.
Five years old.
Five.

My closing statement?

One Direction should really go fuck themselves for all the good they spread across our already quite talent-free society.

Core Bands- Your Best Bet

Pantera. Metallica. Slipknot.
I think we can all agree they're brilliant bands. However, as brilliant as they are, there will only be one of them. There will never be another Pantera, another Metallica, another Slipknot- that generation of metal is over. Yet there are perfectly good metalcore bands that are talented all the same.
I cannot count the amount of times I've been watching the likes of Asking Alexandria, August Burns Red, or Of Mice and Men and read a YouTube comment that goes along the lines of "Noooooooooo, this isn't reeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal metal! Go listen to Slipknot."
Slipknot is fucking brilliant. However, Slipknot will not last forever. Metallica will not last forever. (Jesus, with the amount of hatred they have between themselves, it's a shock they've lasted this long. Props to them.)
What I would recommend to quench your need for a good headbanging (sounded slightly dodgy, just ignore that) are bands like Avenged Sevenfold, Blessthefall, and old Bring Me The Horizon. (I actually love the new BMTH, but someone who wants some heavy metal would prefer their old stuff like I Made Out With Medusa and Alligator Blood.)
I can kind of suspect why a lot of metalheads don't like the new wave of metalcore, though. It's the fans. There are a lot of scene girls who pose as fans of core bands, that I am forced to engage in conversations with that usually go a bit like;
Them: "Do you like (Of Mice and Men)?"
Me: "Yeah, they're really good. I absolutely love You're Not Alone."
Them: "Yeah... How hot is Austin?!"
I'm not gonna lie, people. I feel your pain. It's really annoying. But perhaps, if you ignored the fanbases and concentrated on the music, you'd enjoy the bands a bit more. Just a suggestion.
I mean, Asking Alexandria have brilliant basslines, BMTH have a brilliant (massively underrated) drummer, OM&M always have great anthem like clean vocals. (I must say I prefer Shayley Bourget to Aaron Pauley, but whatever.)
Lyrics wise?
Don't say I'm better off dead,
'Cause heaven's full and hell won't have me.
Won't you make some room in your bed?
Oh, well you could lock me up in your heart,
And throw away the key.
Won't you take me out of my head?
(Taken from And The Snakes Start To Sing by Bring Me The Horizon.)
Rescue the beauty that's left.
Restore the character that's long since gone,
Because these colors must never fade.
The beat must carry on.
(Taken from Creative Capacity by August Burns Red.)
I stand firm in my solidarity
The path I walk, I walk it with my own resolve
When darkness falls we are reborn
Our dream since the fall of man
We are reborn.
(Taken from When Darkness Falls by Killswitch Engage.)

One day all the old metal will be gone, and what are you gonna listen to? 5SOS? Leave your reservations behind you. Listen to some core bands.
