Supersonic, idiotic, disconnecting, not respecting, who would ever really wanna go and top that?

All right kids, it's time for some Facebook smackdown/love. I know it's been awhile again, but hell, it's cold outside and I've been too busy watching Jersey Shore/waiting for the second season of RuPaul's Drag Race. I, and my fellow Pangeans, sat idly by while girls posted their bra colors on the internets in statuses to be seen all over the world and don't even get me started on the friends exposed I'm answering a question about you on your page bullshit. But I'm back from spray tanned color, guidette loving haze to speak out about this new Facebook faux pas.

To be honest, at first I sort of (emphasis on the SORT OF) thought it was cute, then per usual all you people went and took it just a step (or five hundred) too far.
The task went like this, For a week you post a picture of yourself as baby. Simple of enough, cute, and only a week. I never got around to changing my profile pic, I was still all about my newest one featuring my mustache of the week, but I wasn't very bothered by the desire to pimp pictures of one's self as I child. I get it, I was a cute ass kid too. To be perfectly honest, people have been uploading baby pictures of themselves on the book of faces since the beginning. Then the next week (cartoon week) happened, and the next week (celebrity doppelganger), and now once again we have another DPTonF.

I mean come on people! Isn't this a little Sweet Valley High homecoming week? Don't get me wrong, I LOVED Sweet Valley High (I am The Gay, you know) but seriously. You all remember homecoming week festivities where every day YOU, and I put the emphasis on YOU cause I never did that shit, dressed up in silly costumes every day for a week for "spirit points" or a pizza party or something, I'm not quite sure what point of it all was, but you get my drift. It was very silly and very high school and should be left where it originates, HIGH SCHOOL.

AND furthermore, there's a bigger problem here. I ALREADY don't know who you are cause your name is "Sam Equality stickygummyworms The Situation P. Jones", and now without your photo I have absolutely NO clue whose wall I'm posting the latest "Ginger's do have souls" video on.

let us not forget what face book is essentially for:
1. Social networking (whatever that means)
2. Stalking
3. Witty comments on stasuses, stati, etc. ( I STILL don't know what the plural form of a status is)
4. (for some of you) posting endless details about your day
5. Stalking
6. Stalking
7. Stalking

So go on and play your little weekly game, but I have a new policy. If you have both a name and a Facebook picture that aren't either your baby Jesus given name or face. I will defriend you, and you will be devoid of all my facebookie goodness. And we don't want that do we?

And you people must really be on something cause I'm sorry, no one has ever mistaken you for David Beckham, Heidi Klum, or Beyonce. Give it up folks.

Top THAT.
