Lollipops: Unless you're 5, they don't look cute in your mouth. They should be banned from all club restrooms. Must a lady seek such a vile palatable pleasure, a small individually wrapped hard candy should suffice. Example
Mickey shirts: I don't even know what it is about these shirts that just really bug me! I don't care how vintage your mickey junk is. The fact that Forever 21 has Mickey clothing, should tell you something...
Facebook creepin': I love fb chat don't get me wrong, but if you've never first received a fb chat from me then it probably means I'd prefer not to chat. It also probably means that although you might be a "friend" you probably don't sound interesting enough online, so I'd rather not be bugged by that annoying "POP" sound. I give people a chance, I really do, but always the same boring shallowness: "hi, how are you...blah blah". If we never text, talk, or see each other in real life, chances are I don't want to fb chat with you. I'm sure I'm speaking for most women here.
Real-time uploads on Facebook of the food you just ate: I dunno... I mean it's 2010. Really? Do we really have to get excited about that meal we just ate and share it with the rest of the western (well-fed) world? Is it really coming to that? Are we really flossin' what we eat? (pun not intended lol). I've yet to see an upload of some fancy dish/dessert that I haven't been able to get my hands on. The only exception to this annoyance of mine would be that 1. you cooked the meal yourself, 2. you visited some far-east country/remote village and the food you just ate was just so unique and visually appealing that it had to be shared. 3. Vegan/Raw food: you're being green and spreading the love. In other words; your pathetic sushi pictures are taking up space on my news-feed.
New Rule: It's funner to not like stuff than to like stuff
Oops! Sorry about the fb chat thing.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if you read these comments, but I've been thinking about the whole "Facebook creeping" thing and just wanted to share a thought or two with you.
ReplyDeleteAt first I was going to ask why you would be "friends" with anyone, on fb or otherwise, if they annoy you so much? But then I realized that there are people on fb that I wouldn't want to hear from either! I'm definitely not one of those people who have thousands of friends, but it did occur to me that I am now "friends" with people I went to high school with; people I didn't even know were alive back then! I actually had to dig up my old yearbook to see who they were!! I know, meeeeeoooowww! But it's true. Back in high school I knew a lot of the kids, but I had five real friends and they were the best five friends any guy could ask for.
So the question is, what does it mean to be friends these days? I'm sure you have your friends that are your REAL friends, people who challenge and touch you (figuratively). But do you think fb has devalued the definition of a friend? Forget about trying to define "intelligence". For fucks sake there are people out there who think that Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck are intelligent and these two are the biggest nincompoops I've ever heard!
So, what does it mean to be friends? I see you haven't done a blog entry in a while. Maybe your next entry should be on the definition of friendship!
This being friends on fb sure is weird. I've never given this much thought to a friend I didn't know!
