That’s question on everyone’s mind this weekend, and rightfully so. After Frank Ocean failed to release his new album months ago people were already skeptical of the supposed release this last Saturday. And their skepticism came from the right place apparently because here we are, the weekend past, and no album in sight. So here’s 4 things Frank Ocean was probably doing this weekend while you freaked out about his album.

1. Blocked Twitter

And anything reminiscent of it. Or probably just threw out the internet because it has been unkind. Frank Ocean was trending on Twitter and certainly not with love and support pouring out of us fans. We felt hurt and betrayed by Frank once again. But I wouldn’t blame him if he ignored the internet forever after the disappointment and upset his “fans” dumped on him.

2. Probably laughed at us, a lot.

Yes we’re just devoted fans who want an album but things got a tad ridiculous this weekend. Some people creating conspiracy theories as to why the album isn’t out yet, others finding another unsubstantiated possible release date to look forward to (it’s November 13th by the way, so mark your calendar and pray to whatever it is you believe in). And while some of the comments fans made were just disappointment many were just plain hilarious. So I think it’s safe to say that whether it was at our fanaticism, our gullibility, or our own jokes about him, Frank was laughing heartily at us all this weekend.

3. Maybe... ate something? Hung out with friends?

I mean a guy’s gotta eat right? Even though his devoted fans are waiting on him to release an album or a statement or a sign of life. He’s probably just… chillin out. Maybe eating a nice meal with some friends, if they’re not mad about the album too that is. In the comfort of his own home of course, because going in public could prove to lead to some sort of affront from a fan.

4. Seriously probably anything other than thinking about this album

You guys do realize how crazy you’re we’re being about this right? Like this man is just trying to live his life, and he doesn’t owe us anything. And after you’re letting yourself build up all this hype and tension instead of just waiting for the album, it’s probably only going to seem ‘just okay’ anyway. I mean I’m sure it’ll be amazing because it’s Frank Ocean but you’re so invested in it without even hearing it you’re probably just going to be let down no matter how great it is. Have you considered maybe Frank Ocean is just trying to show you how invested you are in things that don’t affect your own life. You spent a whole day, or possibly even a whole weekend, upset about an album not being released, but how long do you spend being that emotionally and mentally invested in your own propulsion on a weekly basis. We should be thanking Frank Ocean for showing us what celebrity worship and attention is doing to our society.

But still, Frank… c’mon buddy, we were really counting on you.
