I've discussed the importance of Facebook before, and today we return to that age old topic. You can argue with me, and I hope you do so I can smack you down with my word fists, but I feel you can learn an awful lot about a person based solely on their Facebook status updates. Exactly how needy a person is can be made perfectly apparent by what they say and how often they say it. Does this person thing homosexuality is against the law of life? Just read their statuses, I bet you'll find out soon enough. Is your "friend" really, really, really unfunny but firmly believes they are hilarious? It's there in their status.
I saw this comedian once at some show my friend was in and was totally like, "We need to be kissing each other." He's available, cute, age-appropriate, geographically desirable...he has it all. Naturally, I followed my own advice and "friended" him on Facebook and sent him a message saying "Hello" and who our mutual friend was and that I enjoyed his show and that I want to be doing it with him (all except the last bit is accurate). So we chatted briefly and and now we comment to each other periodically. So it's going well. I'm bound to work that out somehow...eventually.
At first, I thought his political status updates were cute and funny. As a non-political animal, myself, I sometimes find it endearing in potential suitors. I mean, at least one of us should know what's happening in the world, right? But the more he statuses, the more I realize...this is maybe not for me. My head is starting to heart from the pounding of his political hammer. Like, I curse a lot in my Facebook statuses. So, if someone were to think, "I bet she's going to say 'fuck' all the time in regular conversation," they would be right in thinking that. So, I feel like I might also be right in assuming this guy is going to talk at me a lot about why I should hate Obama and love OWS and blaaaaaaaaaah blah blah blaaaaah blah blaaah. And I just can't handle that. I would prefer being a meal for zombies.
NEXT!
