Facebook Fever

This article is a valuable preface to the inconsequential natter of the facebook mania. Posts after posts in facebook, have undergone the painstaking process of suffering from the writer's freedom of choosing a convenient outlet to dispense with man's irrestible desire to talk. The facebook phenomenon isnt just about socialising with out-of-touch friends anymore. There is more to it, than that touches any periphery of wisdom and reason.
What is a piece of writing without some irony and some controversial judgements and a little humour for people who can read between the lines. "Whats on your mind?", says the facebook status window and people are literally liberal with their emotional urge to share, with their friends, not so friends, strangers they are trying to impress, strangers they wouldnt care to notice passing next to them on their way, their mundane explores of everyday, of every hour, of every minute. Itz like a revolution for the information age where you know how your friend dealt wid the frenzied situation when he last had loose motions.
Facebook is still underrated. It isnt jst media. It isnt jst a useless hobby. Itz a cold-war weapon. Sooner it would be on the ads, "have a broken heart, want 2 gt bk on ur ex?..open fb and type in some text", "a friend screwed u up, want 2 get back on top?..open your last album and few pixels you crop". Commited..single...commited..single..commited...(and now we have a "its complicated" to save the fb servers the regular, predictable updates). Luckily-unluckily, I have a fb account too:)
Fb isnt all about these textual encounters aftrall. Itz a creative undertaker, a talent-findng software product allowing, the girl inside the guy to feed and see fishes mate in an aquarium(happy aquarium apparently), and the boy inside the girl(strictly not in a literal sense) to plough and clean farms in farmville and the lousy Indian flirt to be smart with a Swedish girl on a poker table. Fb promotes the opportunity to the "so-called smart" guyz to send friend requests to girls they have only had the guts to ogle at and flirt wid girls they later realize were only "hairy dudes". If it wasnt for fb, there would never be those "long-wet-dreamz"[;)]
Fb is the official battleground of snobbery. "Look at my recntly uploaded album and all the chicks in it around me, and you thought I was dumb with girls(the last part is left to the reders's discretion to understand)". "My dad gotta new cell, mum gotta new purse, neighbour gotta cute, new puppy and i finally got an underwear". Even if I were puttng thoughts into some minds, trust me, a status like that will not only earn lots of likes bt ll totally deserve them and thats all what life is really abt-flaunting globally about the best you got. A thank-you or a sorry isnt personal anymore like it ever had to be. "Thank you for " and thats like a showpiece on your famous fb wall left to be discussed. Thats not so dumb as much as it is brave to be so dumb so publicly.[;)]
All said and done, facebook is now indispensable as I finally come forth with the last of the ironies in my article. Having written this, all I have to do now is post an advertisement on fb and be a part of the big joke:)

  4. That's a wonderful article! I totally agree with your views. FB has become some kind of a hypothetical world that runs along parallel with our "not as rosy" real lives. It's as much an illusion as it is an obsession!
