H!O Confessions Tumblr

Posted by Chimai, 18 April 2012 · 2324 views

Looking at the H!O confessions makes me realize how disgusting some people are. Honestly, the people who say it's like high school are wrong. The stuff people say on there is ten times worse than high school, at least worse than what most people would hear to their faces or even through word of mouth. I know it's just the internet, but people need to learn some respect. I don't care if you think because it's the internet and you're anonymous you can say whatever you want. Because you can't.

Think before you speak, think of how your words might affect the person you are talking about. You might think people should "lighten up" and not care what people on the internet say about them, but the fact is that it does hurt people, and if you had a single ounce of decency in you, then you'd realize that. Some of the things posted go way too far and become much too personal.

Note that I know some of you are pretty strong and even when such things are said about you online, you don't really care. That's great, you're great, and you really shouldn't have to care about what some cowardly, anonymous person behind their computer screen is saying about you. You shouldn't care about the opinions such a person gathers about you just from your posts on an idol fansite. But I know that most people aren't so lucky and they can't just brush something like this off. For some people, this sort of thing stays with them for a long time.

I know this is probably wasted space because the people confessing might never change their mindset, but it's just something I had to get out. Attacking someone because of their physical condition or their personal life or any related things... is just wrong. I think everyone knows that. But it is still absolutely terrible and I can't stand it.

I also think everyone knows what can happen to a person when that type of thing is said about them. It can seriously damage them and bring down their self-esteem, contribute to their own self-hate. Do you really want someone to feel terrible about themselves perhaps for the rest of their lives in part because of one hateful thing you posted on a stupid confession tumblr?

If you do... I have nothing else to say.

Maybe I'm overreacting. I know I tend to overreact concerning this type of thing. I just needed to get this off of my chest.

Just...

Think before you post.

Please.


NOTE: Please realize that this is not about the not as terrible (but still not so nice) comments simple stating "I don't like so-and-so because they post ______". Not many people will be hurt by someone just saying once that they're annoying or they don't like them. It's the ones like this (the last part) or even like this as well as a couple of the ones about Snapple that just make me shake my head, and those are the types I'm directing this post towards.




I agree. I had an absolutely disgusting 'confession' on there that I thought was appalling. Call me a bitch or whatever and I don't care, but don't assume things about people's private lives. How horrible.
WOAH I didn't know these people were being so direct on their hate for others, these people are dumb as all hell :/
Like, a confession blog is all about, well, confessions, be them negative, positive, or outright disgusting (sexual lol).. but.. like, it's almost like they're blatantly trying to hurt people AND make other people follow their opinions, too.. like, what? Just stop at the "I hate so and so" don't keep going XD
I just hope people get tired of these confessions soon. Then maybe they'll go away. As for me, I won't be reading them anymore. We can't make them stop, but we can try. As we do that, we can try to stop caring what they say. I'm not telling anyone to "just get over it", but I'm saying they don't have to go back for more insults.
I admit I posted one on there but said how I dislike a member for the way the act towards my fav member and act all fake etc.

But I do think the others are really mean and just not deserved.
I get upset by ones that say I have no talent. No directly but like "Only Sprinklebuns, Sniper, Risa/Misa" have talent. It makes me feel like oh well then I will shut down my thread you dicks..
Personally, I don't mind them. They're pretty entertaining to read. The only thing that disappoints me is that apparently no-one hates me enough to actually post one about me.

Whether I agree, or disagree, with the confessions posted, I can still get a chuckle out of it.

This is the internet. If nothing else, it should teach you how to take a trolling in your stride and have fun with it. If these offend you, then I'm sorry to say that you've lived a very sheltered life up until now. :D

I think most people can be fine with little things said about them but I don't think it's right that making fun of someone and laughing about them because they're in a wheelchair should be permitted just because it's the internet and people should cheer up about it.

Yeah, I admit those got to me a bit as well. But now it's just like... hey, no one is forcing you to look at my crappy graphics. I made my thread to have fun, and I am totally open to criticism. If you think you are better than me, then I'm delighted to get feedback as well as pointerd for how to improve my work. But you indirectly insulting my work isn't going to make me stop. Sorry.

Also, you are a great graphics maker! I love all the Sayu stuff you post! Don't listen to them. Keep practicing and show those jerks what you can do. :P

I think you're confused. If someone did "make fun of someone just because they're in a wheelchair", then that would be pretty sick (not to mention uninspired). But I can't see a comment like this anywhere on the site.
Dran, someone did poke fun at Nowhere Man for being in a wheelchair in this confession. As I said, THOSE are the types of confessions that got to me.
I can't remember which one specifically because I've only been looking at the ones where people have complained and linked about them but one of them was making fun of someone and said something about a wheelchair and the person it was about was clearly angry and said about how he's in a wheelchair because he's been disabled from birth. (Not sure I've got it 100% right)
As far as I can tell, that post wasn't making fun of him for being in a wheelchair. If you read the text, you can see that the insult was the "ugly" part, not the "wheelchair" part.
It's not really fair to assume that if you make fun of a person in a wheelchair, you are doing it because they are in a wheelchair.

As for whether it's true or not, I can't say. I don't know Nowhere Man. Nor do I know what this person looks lile.
I've got to say the confessions towards Kay-kun (Nowhere-man) are the most annoying if them all. How can you be horrible about such a lovely person? There are so many lovely people on here!

If it was just about calling him ugly, why even mention the wheelchair? They said that "wheelchair-chan" thing purely as a cheap shot. I have no respect for whoever wrote that.
I thought H!O was just a forum/website where fellow H!P fans could bond together as fans and unite together through their love of H!P but I guess there's more hate for each other than there is positivity. It makes me sad to be honest, especially when people give some people slack for loving a certain member more than others, but then they freak out when they are critisized. I just think all of this is immature and doesn't need to happen.
thanks Chimai for writing this. I completely agree with every word you say.

and the wheelchair-thing really got me too. doesn't matter if the "ugly" is stated together with the "wheelchair" or not - it's just something you shouldn't say. you don't call anyone ugly/stupid/untalented, and you don't point out someone's wheelchair, and you also don't say bad things about someone's personal life. (the one with Snapple really got me too, I was really sorry for her when I read this. This is just plain wrong!)

and many people take those things personally, even if they don't want to. I would. If something really bad would be written on that page about me, I'm sure I couldn't get it out of my head. ESPECIALLY because I don't know who wrote it and can't talk about it with him/her.

I hope this confessions-thing will stop soon.
Good job Chimai!
Speaking up for something you think is wrong seems to be reaching some people's ears.

I just heard about all these confessions yesterday and I don't really get them at all.

For the negative confessions:

If there's a reason why you couldn't bring yourself to be saying those things to certain people without the guise of anonymity, then that's a good enough reason not to say it at all. Do people confess those things with the intent that the people they aim it at will read them? ....because (imo) that makes them pretty low people to feel entitled to put others down like that, and just as bad --if not worse -- as the people who (in their mind) annoy them to the extent to post those confessions.

What ever happened to "being the bigger person"?

If there's someone doing something you don't like, then move along. Ignore it.
Don't spend all of your time and energy into hating someone. People seriously need to realize how much of an affect things like stress and hatred can have on your life.

Example, say in the morning you dread going to work every day...you only think about how much you hate your career and your boss. Those feelings bleed into your daily life. You stub your toe getting out of bed, you run into traffic every morning, you forget your lunch at home, your clients are in a bad mood, etc, etc.

I don't know....I just couldn't bring myself to need to put my energy into disliking someone that much. Especially if they're not out there in the world waging wars, or killing others, or physically abusing others.......or smoking. And especially over the internet. A place where I have complete control over who I talk to and when. If I don't like something, I can just ignore it. But in real life, if my brother annoys me, I can't just ignore it because I see him constantly. So what do I do? I actually TALK to him about our differences, we learn how to communicate to each other better, and become closer because of it. We all benefit from it, instead of holding those emotions inside and both destroying our own sanity.

Half the time, people just don't know that something they are doing is offending you, or is a problem -- so all you have to do is talk to them like a normal human being and they might learn something. Try to see the good in people instead of instantly hating them for something and you might actually see a change in the way they respond to you. When you constantly villainize people, they often feel backed into a corner and fight back. Or worst case, they might actually start to believe that your petty opinion of them is more important that the opinion of the people who care about them and they'll take what you say too seriously. No need for such things in this world when there's already plenty of horrible things happening to people who could only dream that their only problem in life was some online user who's post they find slightly annoying.

But hey, it's "just the internet" right? (one of the lamest excuse for the justification of negativity)


And to the (few) positive confessions:

I don't get those sometimes either. Not that I don't think they're really great (because they are) but....I also think it would be nice to just go ahead and tell those things to the people you like/enjoy/etc. I know sometimes people say that they're always so afraid (more like shy) to do things like add people to their friend's list or post a comment on their shoutbox or even come out of their lurking. It can be really fun when you start communicating with people you enjoy on this site! Heck, it makes it easier to ignore the things that stress you out about this site or even those confessions tumblrs. As said by a rapper in one of his songs, "If you admire somebody you should go ahead and tell them -- people never get the flowers when they can still smell them." ^_^
First off, I'd like to say that I actually find these things humurous for the most part. I'll be honest though, I'd say I haven't made any friends on this site tbh, I rarely do that on any forum that I visit. So, I don't really know any of the people that these are about, apparently these are some of the most popular users on H!O. Probably some of the most noticed members have posted in this very blog post, but again, I really don't know. Maybe because of that fact, I don't find these so heartbreaking as a lot of the people who seem to think that these were handed down on silver plates by god himself.

If these offend you, then I'm sorry to say that you've lived a very sheltered life up until now.

I actually agree with that comment. I heard crap like that on a daily basis in high school. So, also saying that it isn't like high school(though i've never seen the comments that say it is like it), I think is wrong as well. I don't know what High School you guys have been to, or even if you're in high school yet lol, but I can safely say that comments like those in the H!O confessions were pretty normal in my high school. Maybe some of the more harsh ones wouldn't have been said directly to someones face(unless a fight was about to break out), but they would have been said without a doubt.

I really think that because this is an idol site, and it's all supposed to be light-hearted because these are all girls, people kind of forget about the harshness that is everywhere in life. So, when things like this get said, it's just amplified that much more, because of the nature of this kind of fandom. This is ordinary trolling everywhere else in life(not just limited to the internet). Does that mean that some of those comments are justifiable? Probably not. But, at the same time, I don't like to judge what people are thinking.

And yeah, I posted a confession on, I'm guessing the main H!O confession site. Though, it probably got lost in the shuffle of that huge influx of posts the last day-ish. I'd consider mine positive, though I may have taken an indirect jab at some people, but hey that can happen when you say anything lol. And I also agree with this comment as well: If there's a reason why you couldn't bring yourself to be saying those things to certain people without the guise of anonymity, then that's a good enough reason not to say it at all. I do somewhat agree with that as well. The people my comment was about might have been known to them in some form, hard to say though.

I thought H!O was just a forum/website where fellow H!P fans could bond together as fans and unite together through their love of H!P but I guess there's more hate for each other than there is positivity. It makes me sad to be honest, especially when people give some people slack for loving a certain member more than others, but then they freak out when they are critisized. I just think all of this is immature and doesn't need to happen.


This is true, I ignore the blog entirely, and when I found the one about me (my friend told me about it lol) I found it rather funny, but it's very stressful for a lot of others and I can understand that. That's why it's difficult to think that we can come back to this website and think "wow, some people here hate me"
This site is either going to be purely AKB soon, or everyone's just gonna leave from all this crap XP

I wouldn't let this blog offend you, luckily I haven't been bashed because I'm still fairly new to this site, but if there was a confession about me I'd laugh it off.
I do find it immature how people post these confessions because if it was a real life situation they wouldn't say anything.
