Rant on Social Networking
I like social networking sites, I frequent Facebook, Twitter, and others to read up on interesting things from other people's lives.
Except they are not mostly interesting.
Seriously, why do people find the need to broadcast every meal or every event of their lives for people to click "like" with??
How many "Daddy I love you, happy Father's Day" have I seen today? I bet 90% of those dad's don't even have a Facebook account, or they can't see the well wishing message because they are probably blocked anyways.
Or things like, "Grandma passed away, RIP grandma...I miss you." Really? Your beloved Grandma died and you are posting an I miss you post on FB?? This to me it less of an affection for Grandma but more of an "LOOK HOW GREAT I AM" post. Seriously, if there is an afterlife I'd rather sip Mai Tais baking under the sun on some fluffy cloud then finding a computer to check my FB account. That sounds like hell. Now what kind of people wishes their beloved family member to hell?
And all the food and hundreds of vacation pix, oh my GOD stop. As Betty White said on SNL, "seeing pictures of people's vacations was considered a punishment." Time to sit down for another Aunt Patty & Selma's vacation photo slide shows!!!
Maybe I should invest in a website with the URL www.nobodycares.com

Good one, although I actually like looking at people's vacation photos. It gives me ideas on my next vacation.
