  1. i think that people like to hear about themself. i think it is conceited, but others love to know what you think, but if its not what they want to hear, then they are upset. i feel its all drama, so people just need to get over themselves and act their age.

  5. Please speak in complete sentences. Spell out your words correctly and don't forget punctuation. I DEFINITELY do NOT want to see "text lingo" or slang.

    Thanks!

  6. This is saying that while being gossiped about can sometimes be hurtful, we would rather be gossiped about than forgotten about. We tend to desire attention, even if it is negative attention.

  7. i think people live just to here gossip. if there not getting talked about, then they might as well talk about someone else until they get talked about. people say that drama is a waste of time and so childish, when really its their selves starting it. they feel like well someone is making their lives miserable by saying omething that might not be true or its just personal, then might as well do it someone else. when in reality people should just stay out of eachothers business and keep their opinions to theirselves.

  8. I think it's ok to be talked about sometimes but in good ways. Talking about other people in a good way to. Also it might be that people like attention and like to hear people talk about them in good ways. If you talk about someone in a bad way it can upset them alot.

  14. By reading this quote, I believe that it is saying that rather than having someone either speak poorly of you, or not talk about you at all, it is better to do something with your life. Do something, or present yourself in a positive way to give others good things they would want to say about you or someone else.

  15. People like to be talked about, because they like to be known. When people talk about you, they don't necessarily know you, but they know what you've done, good or bad. Some people will judge you by what they hear.

  18. I think this is very true. you are only as important as the next person until people start to talk about you and then you are not just another part of the scenery. But as soon as people stop talking people wont hear about you then its like you where never their.

  19. I think this quote is saying that it is better for someone to talk about you, then for you to not be known at all. Even if someone is talking bad about you, that just shows low self-esteem on their part and they are probably just jealous of you.

  20. I think this quote is saying that people like to be talked about because people like to be known for their good or bad. People would rather hear their name come out of people's mouths rather than people keeping their business to themselves. You would rather be known for something instead of not being know at all.

  23. You want people to know your name and to talk about you. If you aren't talked about then you feel like no one knows you. (:
