Sigh... I'm sure we've all encountered this particular wattpadder I'm getting ready to rant about.

My apologies if you fall under this category 🐸☕ #SorryNotSorry

You know... the type to randomly message you with some fake, overly chirpy message, asking you to read their book.

There's nothing wrong with wanting to get your book out there... but hunty, there's plenty of read for read books you can refer to.

I can't count how many times I've gotten excited when I received a message or notification only to find this.

Random user I've never encountered in my life:

"Hey beautiful! It would mean the WORLD to me if you checked out my poetry book! I would LOVE to hear what you think :-) thank you and stay blessed!"

THAT ^ is obviously faker than Kylie Jenner's lips. You wanna hear my response? Here, let me match your excitement.

Me:

I'm one hundred percent NOT going to check out your book

Literally Noone: Why, Tori? Is it because you're stuck up?

Honestly. You can't tell me you don't get irritated when you receive messages like that. Just because you add a dozen heart emojis and a smiley face doesn't mean I'm going to do what you ask. I would honestly one hundred percent read somebody's book if they sent me one like this.

Random user I've never encountered in my life:

Hey, I'm super desperate for reads and votes so if you could please check out my story and let me know what you think, id really appreciate it. I would do read for reads but I honestly don't want to, so I'm settling for messaging random wattpadders such as yourself, and irritating them by advertising my book. Let me know if you can. Peace and chicken grease.

SURE THING, BRO-HAM!

Your honesty is very much appreciated.

And a lot of the times the people that randomly message me with this fake enthusiasm would add, "I'll make sure to check out yours when I get the time."

LOL *instantly deletes message*

I know good as well you are NEVER going to "check out" my book

I know good as well you are NEVER going to "check out" my book. Don't reel me in with those lies. I'm too smart for that.

Does anyone else get a little annoyed when they receive messages like this?

Or is it just me?

No shade to anybody that does this.

Peace out, guatemala's.
