Not quite sure what reaction she was expecting to get, but "freaking the fuck out and panicing" was somehow not anticipated...

Hey everybody look at me! I am like a five star hotel everytime I post!
"I don't like you. I can't understand your posts. So you won't be getting any stars."
My view:
They are here as decorations to make people look more important than the contents of their posts. Absolutely degrading!
Reason: I spend my time and effort at the contents of my posts which gives me satisfaction when it is perfect and I want that to remain the same. Not the opposite way round by earning stars to write things I don't mean to please people here as a sense of security and not the quality of my posts. Almost like encouraging attention seeking. That I refuse to do.
I value a contribution to my word phrases. I don't value being presented with graphical images of stars on my profile that don't actually do anything in the contents of my posts.
I am going to switch mine off. I want it not to show on my profile. Hope that can happen after the upgrade is complete.

Another thing I noticed and asked to be turned off in my profile.
Friends.
No such thing as friends. That feature is another form of discrimination.
"You are not my friend, I have a huge list of people I listen too better so you can't talk to me."
"Oh I like you for a while, feel free to send a message."

I don't know how I feel about the rating system, but the little star icons are pretty cute.
edit: I am staring at the stars right now...

"Maybe artists shouldn't talk about their art."
"Well kids, I guess your father isn't a hermaphrodite."
"Izzy! enough with the rabid smootching!!"

The only thing clinical about it is all the right angles and columns when it's displaying a topic list, and even then it's more serious then clinical, because the Nightlife is serious business.
Complaint: People suck.

*Deep breath* ...The country sucks, the president's a fucking idiot, 90% of all the people I run into are ignorant fucking consumerist sheep, education sucks because all the teachers are middle class part-time fatass housewives, 50% of said ignorant fucking consumerist sheep think they aren't ignorant fucking consumerist sheep because they wear Che Guevara t-shirts, all everyone cares about is money for buying shiny electronic goods, everyone still believes all the bullshit they heard about LSD destroying your brain, the number one source of information on the Internet is a wiki that begs for donations every 5 seconds even though they claim to be a nonprofit organization, all the video games are getting too god damn expensive, the government thinks a good way to protect its citizens from the imagined dangers of marijuana use are locking them in cells with rapists and murderers for a year, everything that is cool always has to have a disgustingly loyal mob of fanboys worshiping it constantly, everyone is abusing painkillers and destroying themselves and the drug companies are making millions off of it, everyone just relies on escapism rather than actually improving their mundane lives, the government cares more about foreigners than its own citizens, everyone in my family thinks the only goal in life is to get married to some dumb bitch, have a bunch of dumb kids, and live in the suburbs while working a shitty meaningless job and spending your free time drinking and watching Deal or No Deal until you get fat and old, and die, all the black kids I see in public think its cool to walk around with 12 inches of underwear showing at all times and idolize rap artists who make billions off encouraging urban youth to be murderous, hedonistic thugs, the Jews and Muslims in the Middle East are a bunch of fundamentalist fuckheads that have been mindlessly killing each other for hundreds of years over a piece of land the size of fucking Connecticut, I have a wart on my finger that won't go away, my Xbox 360 keeps fucking up, my dog took a giant shit on the deck and I almost stepped in it when I went out back this morning, I'm out of Dr. Pepper, Bioshock wasn't as good as I thought it would be, all the majority of my friends seem to care about is drinking and fucking, my neighbor is an asshole, everyone thinks they know the answer to why we're here and how we exist, but nobody really fucking knows, I ripped a hole in my favorite jeans on a protruding nail by leaning on a fence and I suck at sewing so I can't fix it, everyone is too dependent on electronic luxuries like cell phones and computers, all the artists are sellouts, furries are trying to gain acceptance and be taken seriously when they're not having rough sex in rabbit costumes, all the memes from sites like 4chan are stupid and everyone loves repeating them over and over, and for some reason, the tilde key on this laptop is located right between F12 and Print Screen.
But hey, I can't complain.
