I’m sure you have all seen some of the more recent Facebook status chains and wanted to kill yourself. For the past couple of weeks I’ve noticed that many of my “friends” *cough* have become extremely politically aware. More importantly, everyone on my friends list is apparently going to fall terminally ill immediately because health care is suddenly more than an issue than MTV reality shows, whiny song lyrics, and lolcatz combined.
“Politically aware” Facebook statuses bother me just as much as Green Day’s self-important political rants and Pink’s supposed political career. I’m not exactly sure if people are trying to pass themselves off as smarter or more aware, but the point is that you will never be taken seriously for what you put up on Facebook. Jesus Christ, at least get a .com and legitimize yourself (*cough* www.whyisthispopular.com *cough*). For those people that are too useless to get a real soapbox, Facebook, Twitter, and MySpace remain to be fantastic forums of anonymity and fail. For the rest of us, there’s Mastercard Why Is This Popular DOT Com.
