One Week off of FaceBook

One week without Facebook.

Eight "Personal Message" Notifications

Fourteen "Tagged You In A Post" notifications

Four "Wrote Something On Your Wall" notifications

Seven "Commented On Your Link" notifications regarding cross-posted LiveJournal posts.

Three people who have come back to LJ in some capacity just so they could interact with me :)

ZERO E-mails, Texts, IM's and/or phone calls from people who felt a need/desire to make sure that the stuff they posted on FaceBook got through to me.

It's *inconvenient* to avoid Facebook, but not at all impossible. I've been laid-up all week with a sore ankle, too, and thought for sure that I was going to just casually start browsing FaceBook again out of boredom, but y'know what? Didn't happen! I even had MORE TIME for all that stuff I'm always so upset that I don't have time for any more!

I wrote stories!

I watched Mystery Science Theater 3000!

I had great conversations with folks in the various communities here on LiveJournal!

I created *content*!

Even though I mostly just sat here all week long, I felt PRODUCTIVE! It's been GREAT!

So now I have to decide... what do I do with FaceBook?

This could get... messy.

Molly is a blonde little tomboy who lives in a suburban cul-de-sac.

Her best friend at school is Hannah, a cute little girly-girl with black hair who lives in a GIANT house in a pretty ritzy neighborhood.

At the beginning of the school year, I was informed (by Molly) that Hannah is in love with a boy in her class, name of "Mason".

Mason is a very good looking kid who is VERY nice and VERY polite and VERY... well, more on that in a little bit.

Even though Molly insists that Hannah and Mason will get married, every time we stay after school to play Molly ends up holding Mason's hand and wrestling with him and hugging him while Hannah is all girly-girl yelling things like "I CAN'T GO OVER THERE IT WILL RUIN MY PRETTY SHOES!!!"

Thy are, without a doubt in my mind, BETTY, VERONICA AND ARCHIE.

If Mason had red hair instead of blonde hair, it would be PERFECT!

Interactions between these kids are always like this:

Molly and Mason, in a wrestle-hug. Hannah says somthing like "Oh MAAAAAAAAA-sonnnnn, can you come and push me on the swing please?" Mason is all "Sure thing, Hannah! C'mon, Molly!" and then Mason and Molly run over to the swings, hand-in-hand.

VERY CUTE :)

Hatred

If I hate somebody because of how they handle their racial/sexual awareness rather than hating them because of their race/sex, is that still Bigoted?

EXAMPLE: I eat a Banana near my Latvarian friend, he says "Oh you are NOT eating that racist banana in front of me! Is that what you think I am? Yellow on the outside but white on the inside?" I HATE YOU!

EXAMPLE: I list all 507 potential kinds of sexual orientation as the kinds of people who are welcome to come to our party, and you reply with "You listed (SEXUAL ORIENTATION #328), but not (SEXUAL ORIENTATION 328-A, WHICH IS SPELLED WITH AN X INSTEAD OF A K) because admit it, you hate (328-A) like me!" I HATE YOU!

It's okay to just hate people like that, isn't it?
