Do you wanna go viral?

I used to think it was super hard.

Turns out, it’s pretty easy.

Rant. Scream your pain out loud. Cry like a crybaby.

Do all of this in public.

Arrrrrrhhhhhhhhhhh. Waughhhhhhhhhh.

That’s it.

Many psychology studies show that negative emotions grab attention more than positive ones.

But while ranting in public gets you noticed, it kills you in the long run.

Do you have any friends who constantly spread negative emotions?

I remember I had one who always cried like a baby every time he broke up with his girlfriend.

He would even cut himself every time.

Sure, he got my attention.

My best decision was to suggest he see a therapist.

We’re not an emotional toilet—we don’t want your constant negativity.

We have our pain to deal with.
