I have a Facebook page and that’s it. I check it about 2-3 times a day, mostly to see if I received any comments on any of the funny status updates that I posted earlier in the day. However, I have increasingly started to notice that with our internet connection now readily available on our phones… people are now more and more addicted to whatever “status” they need to update.
I bring this up because last night my girlfriend and I were having dinner at this great little sushi place, and the couple sitting next to our table were both texting furiously away on their i-phones. You could see that both of them were clearly on their Facebook/Twitter accounts… probably updating that they were out having sushi. There used to be a time that using the phone at the dinner table was rude behavior. Now if you’re not updating your status between bites you are losing out in the “status update race of life.”
If you are going to update constantly then give us some funny, amusing, interesting piece of information. “Hey, Erin and I are out at a sushi place and they don’t have burgers. What gives?” I say give people something to read that will make them scratch their head and say, “WTF?” Or DON’T BOTHER.
Also, stop sending me invites to events I don’t want to go to. That movie quiz was retarded. Never send me a quiz ever again. I am actually thinking about starting a Twitter account just to make fun of it. The other day I was walking into the mall and on the outside of the door there was a sign that says, “Follow us on Twitter.” Why the fu*k would I ever want to follow a mall on Twitter?
Does the mall update their status as well?
“Just had two cars stolen from my parking lot, LOL”
