Humor: Facebook

by Sandie Mcgary

Created on: October 20, 2010

Don't you just often wonder what in the world we would do without Facebook? I mean really, how are we supposed to start the day without knowing that Daphne just had a cream cheese bagel while watching an episode of lost at 6a.m this morning or that Brittney <33 Joey or that Samantha likes Taylor's comment on Barry's pics of his grandmothers neighbors sisters Chihuahua wearing a pumpkin hat. I mean come on, I know I certainly couldn't survive an hour let alone a day.

Facebook has so many facets that just complete ones day. For example, those that love to tend farm but yet do not have the monetary means to actually support and purchase a farm can do so on Facebook.No way you say? Well I say yes, yes you can. For just a fraction of your day you too can build a farm that will make others green with envy, pun intended. Tending crops, feeding your livestock and building your barn, stable, bee hive, chicken coop, log cabin or Japanese barn....hmmm...haven't seen too many Japanese barns in our neck of the woods but hey, it is a barn of sorts so whatever....That's what makes Facebook so wonderful.

And it's  always nice to run into friends you haven't seen since high school, you know the ones, they picked on you incessantly, they called you names  gave you swirlies, slapped jello in your hair and never had a anything to do with you otherwise. But hey, they want to be your friend now. Awesome I know. It's always a nice surprise to sign on to Facebook after a long day of working hard to see your ex boyfriend, with whom you were certain was the one you were going to marry and live happily ever after but left you for your ex best friend, has poked you and requested you as a friend. Yep, day complete!

Hey, if you don't like the way your life is going just head on over to Yo-ville and make your very own avatar. You can work at the factory, make friends, decorate your apartment and oh so much more. You can build a fabulous virtual life that will make you rush through the ho-hums of your day to get your Yo-ville facebook fix. Who needs reality when you have Facebook, the social network that actually takes the social out of being social. Anyone up for a game of Farkle?
