@Katie_96x Can I just say how awesome it is that we are Twitter friends? I know that this message is random but I felt like it had to be said and I thought about writing it after reading some of the questions/answers on your Ask recently. I just think it's really cool how we may not always have the same opinion about certain people or certain situations, etc. but we can still be mature and talk to each other. We don't argue with each other or try to make our own individual opinion valid and we don't put the other person down just because they have a different way of seeing something. Now I know how sappy and shit this long tweet is but like I said before, I just felt like it had to be said! I've seen so many fans arguing with each other/falling out with each other and I am seriously so proud of us for being able to have such different views of things, yet still being able to hold a conversation and talk to each other on Twitter. So we're not the closest of friends, you don't know much about me and I don't know much about you but you're the only person who I can totally disagree with yet still think that you're an awesome person and no matter what you think, I'll always enjoy talking to you online. I'm going to stop writing now, but I just wanted to tell you this haha! #sappyshit #ew #dontgetusedtoit
Okay so other than the odd vague tweet here and there, I don't comment on the drama that goes on within the Jonas fandom but I feel like something has to be said. I know that I'm wasting my time writing this out because only a few people will read it and nobody will go along with it, but it's good to get your feelings/thoughts out, right? It's good to have a rant and that's what I'm going to do now so brace yourselves!
I am sick and tired of seeing Joe's fans and Nick's fans going against each other, arguing and constantly being hypocritical. Joe is one person and Nick is another; even though they are brothers and it is a natural thing for people to compare them, they are different people with different lives. They are both adults and can do whatever the hell they want, and it's not up to their fans to decide what they should and shouldn't do for them. They're big boys now, they can handle life on their own! Speaking of being big boys and having their own lives, it's no secret that they both have girlfriends at the moment. It's a fact that Joe is dating Blanda and has been for a good 19 or 20 months (aka, almost two years) while Nick is dating Olivia and has been for around 8 or 9 months. Obviously, Joe and Nick are dating their girlfriends for a reason and those reasons should not have to be explained to their fans. Blanda and Olivia are both beautiful, intelligent, talented women in their own right and they should not be pitted against each other like their boyfriends constantly are.
I understand that fans have their favourite ships, otp's, whatever you call them... I get that some people will love Joe and Blanda together and some people will love Nick and Olivia together. We're allowed to have an opinion, we're humans and it's a free country! I get that. But what I don't get is why some fans in the fandom feel the need to make their favourite couple better than someone else's. It's not a competition, nobody has to prove anything to anybody! Stop comparing Joe and Blanda's relationship to Nick and Olivia's relationship and vice versa because they're both completely different.
And along similar lines, can we stop showing ourselves and the rest of our fandom up by hating on our idol's girlfriends? I'm sure Joe and Nick don't appreciate you all hating on the people that they love. If you don't like someone, and I've said this before, keep your opinion to yourself. Don't send hateful tweets to that person or their fans, don't make them feel bad and be a disgraceful fan, simply keep your comments to yourself and get some respect. You don't have to like every girlfriend that Joe and Nick have, and in this case please keep your mouth shut. Just like you have your reasons for hating a person, someone else has their own reasons for loving a person and it's not mature to argue and try to make someone else think in the same way that you do. Agree to disagree and move the fuck on! It's not that hard.
The theme of this reallyyy long tweet is that the majority of Jonas fans are not little children and we really need to start acting our ages. We're not teeny-boppers, we shouldn't get jealous every time new pictures of our idol with their girlfriend come out to the point where we turn red and start spreading hate around. We should suck it up, be realistic and start acting like the adults that most of us in the fandom are. Personally I am a fan of Joe's happiness and Nick's happiness and I don't care what or who causes it. As long as they are happy and I see that their smiles are genuine then I'm all good and that's what it should be like for the rest of their fans. Support their happiness for goodness sake! You don't want to see them sad or mad, do you?!
Now I'm sure that this rant was all over the place and I frankly can't be bothered to read back... <<<<<< N.B from Jumbotweet: auto-truncated at 4K characters on index page - Click here or on the "view" link to see entire jumbotweet! http://www.jumbotweet.com/ltweets/view/58215
Okay so I feel like I have to rant about something and 140 characters is not enough so I'm using this Jumbo Tweet thing for the first time...I hope it works!
As we all know from Nick's last tweet, he's performing a set tonight at Live At The Vineyard and originally it was supposed to be a Jonas Brothers set but it's not anymore. I'm sorry to burst your bubble but the Jonas Brothers are no longer a band and I personally don't expect to see all three of them on a stage together for at least another two years or so, if at all. Yes, the fact that tonight's set was supposed to be a Jonas Brothers one and it's not is sad and very upsetting for Jonas fans but the fact of the matter is that Nick has taken it upon his shoulders to carry on playing music for his fans. He could've cancelled the set tonight all together but he didn't and it's going to be so bittersweet to see him all alone on that stage tonight (unless he decides to have Joe up there with him or something) but we have to face reality. Nick's going to be going solo tonight and that's all there is to it, whether we like it or not. As a Jonas fan myself, I understand how hard it's going to be to watch any videos of Nick's set that are posted tonight but a part of me is so happy and proud of him for continuing his life and career. He's doing what he loves to do and he's obviously happier being a solo artist so I'd love it if those who are hating on him could stop. We should be cheering him on, not tearing him down. All I'm asking for is to give him some support because God knows he needs it right now!
Moral of the story: be nice to Nick and don't let your bitterness over the fact that the Jonas Brothers aren't performing together tonight like they should've been overshadow your rationality and what's right which is being there for Nick.
