A date should come with more legs



I know this picture is gross, but it makes me think about modern society and how cheap it feels lately. There's no context. No meat. It's all tweets, texts and twats and wham, bam, thank you, ma'am. Text me! Friend me! Give me your status update!

Communication's been whittled down to a stuffed stump on a metal pole—and the worst part is that my own greedy-for-Junior-news mother has become part of the machine. She's on Facebook.

She's holding the bucket, folks, and she wants the goods.

I blame Miley Cyrus.

And I'm taking the weekend off from this damn computer. Maybe Monday, too.

I find that it is necessary for me to take frequent 'technology breaks' for my own sanity.

Everything in moderation, right?

I blame everything on Miley Cyrus, though I do have a little sympathy for her since her father is Mr. Achy Breaky Heart.

Leanne said...

I hear you. Take the weekend off and uh, write a children's book or something. :)

I think I'm traumatized.

I think I've found my next career opportunity...NOT.

Enjoy your break.

My Dad's on Facebook too.

It's a scary world out there.

So true...I know so much about friends I haven't actually talked to in months just from reading Facebook updates...

That turned me on.

A lot.

Ahem.

I agree with you. Totally.
