Studies show that 11.8% of all Twitter users have private accounts, and “love” is the word used most commonly in all Twitter users’ bio. Purple is the most common colour for backgrounds in female tweeters, and black, for male. Only 10.3% tweeters have switched on their geo-location, meaning, tweeters don’t want you to know where they are, but rather, what they are thinking of. Which is unfortunately…… Very negative at most times.
We rant, because we feel relaxed immediately after we do it. Which is very true, I have to agree. But it’s not always good for you. Contradictory to self experience, it shows that while ranters felt more relaxed initially after posting, they actually experienced higher levels of anger than most, or if not at their peak of anger. Likelihood is that they tend to express their anger in ways that provoke. Furthermore, simply reading rants for five minutes can significantly cause a negative mood shift.
I suppose this is why we rant, all we care about is to make ourselves feel better, but we never thought that as we rant, we might even worsen the situation by affecting even more people. Try to stop ranting, I know it’s hard, it’s very hard.
