Facebook Statuses: only the interesting stuff, please?!
I love people, don't get me wrong, I am the quintessential PEOPLE person...but can I tell you how many people I have had to hide in my 'news feed' on facebook? No, I actually can't. The range goes from people talking about how they just puked a moment ago to the very last detail of the recipe that they made for their husband. I make a kick ass chile verde (got it from my ex-mother in law, see, I can give credit where credit is due...I did get something other than greif from her!! LOL...) But do you see me bragging about it, no, well, mostly because no one even knows what I'm talking about. But also because no one cares. I actually would really rather NOT hear every detail, something funny, witty, cute, ironic...yes, I'm all ears, I'll even try to give you a clever comment. But no, I don't want to hear that you're about to go into the bathroom with a magazine. I don't want to hear about how cute your kid is...no one does, because either they don't have them and don't care, or they do have them and think theirs is cuter. If your kid says something funny or poignant, yes, that's okay. Do I want to hear about your sexlife...well, actually that is pretty salacious, and yes, I actually do, but still don't think it's status-worthy. Send me a message, I'd love to hear those details... If it involves something you do everyday of your life, and that everybody else does everyday of their life, or a bodily excretion, whether it's yours, your kids, whatever....STOP! It's annoying. Love being able to keep in touch with my peeps, but come on...use a little discretion please!
