You answered your own question actually. The reasons you listed are exactly why they do what they do. They do not care from who/where the attention comes, as long as it comes and is directly solely on them, be it positive or negative. They are willfully trying not to be themselves. All this make-up, tattoos, piercings, and edgy and whorish behavior is to cover up the failure that they actually are but are too lazy to do anything proper about... besides blogging and "meds". Logic is a non-factor as well since if these pigs had any the rest of us would not need to suffer them to begin with. They choose to live in their fantasy worlds of selfishness and bullshit, and since more are joining the herd daily things are only getting worse. It's a self-feeding dilemma that hopefully these pigs will choke on in the next generation or two.
