Mamma Mia Here We Go...
I love not being on Facebook, and I love not being on it more today than I did any other day. Why? Well, because today my mother joined Facebook.
I love my mom, and before creating her own account she managed to find away to get on Facebook and be in the know about everyones lives. For example, "Did you know Mike and Mel are engaged?" or "Did you hear, Eric got into Columbia Law?" My response was always the same, "Who told you? Facebook?" And her reply always being, "Of course."
But why am I so glad to not be on Facebook now that my mother is on it? Let's think about this logically. Do I really need my mother writing on my wall saying, "Good luck on your interview today, sweetie!!!!!" (all of those exclamation points being no exaggeration). I appreciate that she wants me to do well, but I don't need my whole world knowing that I have an interview. Or how about, "Good night baby, I love you so so so so so so much." Yes, very sweet, but we've already BBMd 20 times before bed, a wall post is just overkill.
So, welcome to Facebook, Mom. Your life is about to more consumed than it already is!

Rumor Patrol
I'm usually not a weekend blog poster but I like to acknowledge all things crazy, and once again I've found something crazy. According to The Morning Call, 5 people were arrested in Pennsylvania this week after getting into a brawl that started over a rumor that was posted on Facebook.
Oh but it gets so much worst, and actually, it's not even funny. The brawl ended in a stabbing. One of the women was stabbed numerous times in the leg and shoulders. Once again I must ask, what is wrong with people?
The court has not released the nature of the rumors, but apparently it was pretty nasty. Really though, what the hell could lead to a stabbing? I mean obviously if it happens on Facebook then it's got to be true. NOT. Get a clue, morons.

You So McCrazy
Has anybody seen this McCrazy lady? I know some of you don't like when I post videos (get over it!) but here is one you've got to see to believe. Since the video has no sound let me narrate a little for you. Here goes: Lady pulls up to McDonalds drive thru craving some chicken nuggets. The employee at the drive thru tells McCrazy that there are no nuggets left. The following ensues:
What A N.E.R.D
The theme of today's blog is McDonalds. I love french fries, and it's my blog and I'll write about whatever I want! Actually, the McCrazy woman above reminded me of another video I looooooove that is McDonalds related so I decided to share it. Thanks for the entertainment, Pharrell!

He's Just Not That Into You: Relationship status style
It's common knowledge that I have an issue with "Relationship Statuses" on Facebook. I know everyone wants everyone else to know when they're single and when they're not. They want to stick it to the one they really love, or they want to prove that they are independent and loving it (lie, but OK). Here's the thing though, any guy that changes his relationship status to "In A Relationship" is not doing it willingly, that's a fact.
Most guys like being single (and I mean the vast majority), and they also like their anonymity. There is no way in hell that a guy wakes up in the morning and says, "I think I'm going to change my status to 'In A Relationship' so that every girl I know and don't know now knows I'm locked up." No freakin way, that's not how it works.
It usually goes down like this:
Girl: Baaaaabe, I think we should be in a relationship on Facebook.
Boy: Why?
Girl: Because, we are in a relationship and everyone should know.
Boy: But who cares if everyone knows? We know and that's all that matters.
Girl: That's stupid, change your status, now.
Following said conversation, a fight usually ensues, the boy changes his relationship status and after a few months boy and girl break-up.
I'm no genius, nor am I a relationship expert, but I will give myself that I am a good social observer (not sure what that actually means, but I'm a good people watcher). And I know this, if your man is reluctant to change his status, just end it then and there and save yourself some time and some Facebook stalking.
