Ohh boy. This a big one.
I. HATE. FACEBOOK STATUS TRENDS. YES, I PUT PERIODS FOR EMPHASIS. Facebook already possesses the power to literally control our every moves (and now record those moves as well), but it seems to also possess the power to collectively lower a person's (or many people's) I.Q.
Focusing on one in particular:
The very recent, "I like it on the _____" status.
This has honestly got to be the dumbest thing I've seen in quite a while. I've heard this is for "Breast Cancer Awareness" - except that by demanding the participants of this asinine practice keep this is a secret, I can't really see how any cause is being supported... other than the awareness of silly and immature girls. Guess what, ladies? You didn't put that in your status because of breast cancer. You put it on your status because it's a sexual innuendo, and you find that funny. And, as most girls haven't (or will never) learn... things like that just make you look sexual. Not cute.
I hope I am not too out of line to suggest that a better way to spread awareness of any horrible disease such as breast cancer would be to post facts or tips to avoid the disease, or even to (gasp) volunteer your time or services to such an honorable cause.
Continuing:
The more common, "like this status and I will tell you some assorted bullshit" isn't quite as infuriating, but it is still equally as annoying. Facebook makes me want to scream, "NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOUR LIFE!!!!!" to 99.99% of the people on there.
And don't worry. The "liking" of Facebook items will be another post entirely. It has a special, burning hole of brimstone in my already blackened heart. <3
