Should Have Stayed With Myspace With Their Embedded Music Players:
Self portrait pictures taken in front of the mirror
Self portrait pictures where your arm is stickin out the frame
Andy Warhol-esque photoshop newbie profile pictures (You're not a photoshop expert, and coloring your portrait with pastels make you look like my nephew's finger painting mess)
Whole folders of the same profile pic taken with a different smile (Bitch you're not a model, and don't think those 100 pushups you did last night made a difference)
Why Did Facebook Have 2 Go There?:
Parents doing the things in the above lists
Parents and Kids putting each other on blast in front of 200 of their mutual friends
Changing around the privacy functions every couple of months
Tracking our internet activity and placing ads on our profile page reflecting that activity (Facebook = Big Brother?!)
Because of Social Networking Sites...
My boring life has something to look forward to in front of a monitor
I can be a semi celebrity
I can keep in touch with people I haven't seen in decades, whether I want to see them or not
I can put myself in a precarious position with present and future job references
I officially have a second identity, maybe a third or a fourth if my self esteem is that bad
I get a free play by play on sports, concerts, and drama with couples
I'm up to date with what's hot and what's not
I'm always in touch with my acquaintances, since social networking is like my elementary, junior high, high school, college, and workplaces, all in one recess session. :-)
