Why are people throwing things at me?
So I’m on Facebook, right? It’s a cool little website. I find it to be an amusing little time-suck. BUT. What the fuck with the crazy application shit?
Last night, someone threw a hamster in a water balloon at me. I don’t know what to do with that.
Did they kill a hamster, fill a water balloon then stuff him in it?
Oh, god.
Did they put him in alive!?! What kind of person does this?
And flare. Why are you giving me flare? Am I lost? Do I need to stop traffic for some reason? Do I have a flare gun in my locker that needs going off so I can spend Saturday in detention with Molly Ringwald?
Why are people mowing my little green patch? That sounds so dirty and I really don’t think Mike would appreciate that.
And cupcakes. Y’all ain’t giving me cupcakes. I’m a fat girl. I know what a cupcake is. There is no cupcake in my belly so quit teasing me, haters.
This is seriously out of control, people.
I think Facebook is neat. I’ve reconnected with people I hadn’t seen in years. I get to pimp my blog. I upload adorable pictures of me and Mike. It’s a hoot.
But all these random applications? People. Close the browser, walk away from the computer and make me some fuckin’ cupcakes for real.
Heart,
Ali
I don’t Facebook. I do MySpace, Ravelry, Goodreads, and Twitter.
Someone thinks “Hmm. It would be cool to stuff a rodent in a balloon and throw it at people.” and then that person makes that into an application.
Then another person thinks. “Huh. Why WOULDN’T I want to throw a lab animal stuffed into a balloon at my friends?”
I submit this; Who is the bigger asshat?
Also, this is one of the reasons I’m not on
LamebookFacedumbFuckbookAssfuckFacecrapFuckstickwhateverbook.So.
yes it’s silly, but who cares?? i just get on to get back in touch with people that i haven’t seen in a while.
oh and i love the flair! you would have been fired in the movie office space really fast!!!
Monica, you should try facebook. It’s the new black of the internet.
Mike. I think you should have added Facefuck.
Sarah- This was not an open invitation to throw flair (or flare) at me, biatch.
I’m up for Bff’s
No flairs, girl scout promise!!
THANK YOU. I could add to this…
I hate when people try to kidnap you or recruit you to some army or war. Geez. I can make a statement by joining a group, but vampire wars? Are you serious?
Anyways. It’s a good idea to stay classy. Go Ali.
Note to self: use the word “asshat” more often. It’s catchy.
Also: don’t throw shit at Ali on the FB.
Ha! A hamster is nothing. Wait till someone throws a piss-filled balloon at you.
Good times.
I quit Facebook because of the lack of Ringwald-ness. Lord help me, I will forever be about 17 years old. And I hated that you had to add the application to open up and look at the stuff peeps would send. Poor hamster. But it seems that these days, even Myspace is much less of a time-suck for me than a few online communities at Ning.com. You should really check that. You could totally have a complete online community called like Ali-lusciousness World or Cupcakes Anonymous, ya know? Whatever. Fun.
You know how I fought the facebook thing for about a year, but now I literally thank God for it. I’m not crazy about the applications either, but I get annoyed more when it’s from people not in my every day life. If I get something from one of my ACTUAL bff’s, I’ll always approve it, but when random people want to send me crap, I ignore it. That sounds rather elitist of me but… well… whatever.
That being said, I’ll still send you ‘drinks’ or have ‘spa days’ with you. Just a little smile, ya know?
) But when I see you, I’ll buy you actual cupcakes. Deal? <3
