So I realized last week stopped at a red light that I had a problem. Or perhaps it was in the drive in at Mc Donalds picking up my third Diet Dr Pepper of the day- I am addicted to facebook. At first I tried to justify it to myself. "Who cares??? I don't drink, do drugs, view porn, etc....so so what if I spend too much time catching up on people's lives that I usually have no contact with." It just got to be a little silly. Many people would have been able to just cut back. I however, am not one of those people. MaryAlice deactivated the account. And while I have been doing some facebook stalking with some of my fictious accounts, its not much fun with NO friends, so its been pretty easy to stay off. I will undoubtable be back and when I return I hope my 300+ "friends" will keep the following things in mind....
1. No one wants to hear that you are cleaning the bathroom, making dinner, etc. It's not out of the ordinary, inspirational or funny, so please keep it to yourself!
2. I dont want to hear how much you love your husband, kids, siblings, etc. NO SHIT! They are YOUR kids and YOUR husband- so again unless the aforementioned kids, hubby, sibling, boyfriend, etc did something spectacular keep it to yourself please (maybe get a diary).
3. Don't get political. It makes me really want to unfriend you - even when I agree with you!
And perhaps my biggest pet-peeve on facebook. For all of you are trying so hard to be grammatically correct....when you post a picture of you and someone else, the correct caption would be "Me and xyz" NOT "XYZ AND I". Basic grammar people....learn it!
Thank you and I will see you all soon!
