My Bird Theory

Published on February 14, 2026 at 9:04 PM

If I'm remembering correctly, bird theory is when you tell someone something small that you're excited about and see how they react. Well, my bird theory is the same, especially with the opposite emotion: anger. I hate it when I show passion about something, something small, like how people were driving in LA or the fact that I forgot my phone charger when I needed it, and they hardly show any interest. I don't care if it's a minuscule problem or something dumb. I cared enough to share it, so I'd appreciate it if they could care enough to show some reaction. Or when I am ranting about something, and they continue to tell me the worst possible outcomes. SHUT UP. Omg. They either give one-word answers or don't feed much into it or show they care. But ironically, when it's their turn to talk about something, they have all the energy in the world. I hate it. It's the suckiest feeling in the world. And usually when things like this happen, I internalize it, but I know it's not me this time. I am valid in my feelings. I hate it when people only care to talk about what they want to talk about and pay no interest in what I have to say. It's exhausting and irritating.
