Facebook

Alright, I'm going to go ahead and say it. Facebook is now lame. It has reached that "myspace" plateau. I'm sure the three of you who read this will think, "No! Facebook is nothing like myspace! You're outrageously crazy!" No my friends, I'm not the cool-aid man.

I recently posted "Why does Kris look so gay?" as a photo comment, to which i got the usual responses. Uptight Mo sister getting all defencive because she actually thinks I'm serious. It's a swan song really, one that I've learned to embrace. Arguing with people in Utah brings me a different kind of joy, because I know something they don't. Anyways, later on said persons Mom posts on the picture; "I would appreciate if you would keep it clean, this is my family picture you are talking about."

That's it. This is where I draw the line. Facebook has officially changed. At first it was a place for college students, people who had out grown Myspace. Then the highschoolers had to jump in on the fad. Now I've got my aunt as a friend. I don't need any censorship, I shouldn't have to watch what I write on someones picture. Especially when I know said person doesn't care. This is the breaking point.

Am I going to delete my facebook? No. That's just dumb. Am I going to put this blog in my status so everyone can realize how lame facebook is now? Yes. Am I going to go through my list of friends and delete anyone who isn't really my friend? Yeah. I mean come on, I've got one of my ex girlfriends moms friended. Why? I do not know.

We (the youth) need to either unfriend all those people who aren't our real friends, or find something new. You shouldn't have to add your own mom on facebook, you have a freaking telephone for that. Or is that too personal for you to do?

I'm going to find a replacement for facebook. My search begins Jan. 1st 2009.
