My family talks about anything and everything with each other, ranging from the gross to the funny, which to be honest, usually is the same thing in our house. <br /> <br />The conversations I would have at my house would be very different at someone else's house because to them that subject matter might be "gross" or "inappropriate" or simply "too much information." " <br /><br />YES. I had to quote this whole thing because it is beyond true for my family. It sounds just like us! And while I am pretty good about not oversharing unless it is with people I've known for ages or that I'm really close to, I still get some of the "that's weird/gross" reactions from even those people.<br /><br />Like I have this close group of online friends, there are three of them and we've known each other for 5 years but I talk about everything with them. But when I tell them stories from family get togethers and how we talked about poop or some other inappropriate dinner conversation topic, they get so disturbed that they just don't understand how any family could be that way. And that it isn't normal but I think it just really depends on how you grow up. Some families have the humor and straight up honesty that everything is funny, like mine and other families are raised that some things should never be talked about ever and are not funny and that is okay too.<br /><br />I don't agree with oversharing too much. I think people sometimes take it too far. Like you can tell a funny crap your pants story just please do not go into great detail of everything in it. And relationship oversharing I really do not agree with. If you post all your arguments and drama about someone you are in a relationship with, that is just wrong. It should be between you two and not the whole world. <br /><br />But otherwise I don't care if you overshare sometimes. It also kind of connects people more when they do.<br /><br />Sorry for a novel length comment!

I might think certain things are too much to be put out there on the web but hello, no one is forcing me to read it! I feel like people need to use some commonsense/censorship. I especially noticed this during the elections. People would get so bothered and worked up about someone elses opinions! Why would you ever let something silly like that get to you?

My friends ...I'm a very open person in general. My friends and family know I'm an open book. I tell my mom things she probably could do without hearing. I edit myself A LOT of fb these days because now my parents friends are my friends as well. Which can make for awkward comment threads where my college friends say hilarious though inappropriate things and my mom's friends comment how they are praying for us all. (All prayer always appreciated though :P)<br />I'm a little less censored on twitter, because most of the people that follow me on there are from my blog, and if you read my blog you know I'm a little silly. I do remain conscious of the fact that once its on the internet its out there FOREVER. I try my best not to tweet or blog in anger, or to 'call people out', or anything like that. Id hate for it to come back later and bite me in the butt.Whitney Alison https://www.blogger.com/profile/02153898249785757592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-699693038908396892.post-43492639443498133182012-12-12T07:02:13.112-08:002012-12-12T07:02:13.112-08:00I am constantly hiding people from my feed b/c of ...I am constantly hiding people from my feed b/c of overhsaring, annoying or disrespectful posts, etc. I couldn't agree more!<br /><br /><a href="http://coffeebeansandbobbypins.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">http://coffeebeansandbobbypins.blogspot.com/</a>Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10559190545851276583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-699693038908396892.post-27491699450362267912012-12-12T06:29:30.560-08:002012-12-12T06:29:30.560-08:00Interesting thoughts.

Something I might add, though, is that people need to remember that although social media can often be regarded as trivial, once they've posted something to the internet, it can be nearly impossible to remove completely. So maybe think twice about sharing intimate details of your life. Especially when many employers search the internet for any red flags before hiring.Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18340119340997097463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-699693038908396892.post-69752242207685600992012-12-12T06:26:31.657-08:002012-12-12T06:26:31.657-08:00Well said, and I totally agree with you.

There is a girl on my FB who tells when she AND her baby have the shits. Seriously? Do I need to picture you having shitting issues? No. Everyone who has had a baby knows that babies poo a lot too. It's a fact. It's not OMG hilarious when they poo out of their diaper when your husband is holding them or whatever. It makes no sense to me.
