OMFG GUYZ FACEBOOKZ IS DE CRAZIEST PEOPLE
I am embarrassed to be alive right now.
Why?
It probably has something to do with this.
This is re-fucking-diculous.
For some of you who may not know, facebook (the digital cess pit of college life) has recently been upgraded to include blow-by-blow reports on all your friends' misdeeds. I have a few points to weigh in with regard to this:
-First off, who the fuck cares? OMFG Stacey totally went to a party with Brad! That's in-fucking-credible. Un-fucking-believable. Holy-fucking-shitulous! All of our lives are surely enriched with this added knowledge. Thanks facebook.
-Second, it's a little like the Gestapo keeping tabs on your whereabouts. A jealous lover, a horny football player, a stalker could all use this feature to their own predatory ends.
I think the thing to do is NOT to disconnect yourself from these "news feeds," but instead to feed it interesting tidbits of your life. I, for instance, give people head at the retirement home while wearing a leprechaun outfit. Most people didn't know this, but now thanks to the help of facebook I can perhaps connect with others who share my fellatory tendencies. Perhaps you could follow suit and share something special about yourself to me.
However if you've clicked on the aforementioned link, you will surely know that Facebook's new news feeds are comparatively the pinnacle of journalistic integrity when compared to the dregs we call CNN. TRACY SAMANTHA SCHMIDT/WASHINGTON (from this point forward abbreved TSS/W) brings up the novel concept: is this protest against facebook SIGNS OF A GEN-Y REVOLUTION? Thanks, TSS/W for introducing this compelling argument. First off, TSS/W puts me in a bad mood by referring to my age group as "gen-y" (perhaps pronounced "jenny") throughout the article. Not Generation-Y, not The Y Generation, "Gen-Y". Anyway, why would you EVER mistake this paltry hubbub of a hiccough (British spelling) of a tiff for a REVOLUTION. Ready to know what a "revolution" is, TSS/W?
It's called my generation being the reason why you have a job. We control the internet (not Ted Stevens), we troubleshoot your networks, build and rebuild your computers, maintain your websites, make the coffee that gets you out of your bed in the morning. "Gen-Y" created Facebook itself (without which you would have to dig up something else that can pass as "news.")
Towards the end of the article, TSS/W says, all the students did were click a button to join an Anti-News Feed group on Facebook or sign the online petition  protesting that took less than a minute. There were no massive demonstrations or a significant boycott. Implying that this incident was simply not on a grand enough level to be a true "revolution." She insinuated that we are probably too apathetic a generation to instigate a revolution that means anything. So here I challenge you, TSS/W, CNN and the rest of the news media to actually do your job and report the news rather than bullshit. If you're criticizing us so much for not caring, perhaps you should do your job and show us what we should be caring about.
douches.
just poke me if you need to know where to get a good leprechaun costume.
