Boring people bore me.

We are all selfish self-absorbed b*stards that will one day caused boredom to be a leading cause of death.

By 2030, it is expected that 90% of people will be soulless brainwashed numb zombies ruled by the overlord we all think serves us today, the Internet.

The Internet is causing people to not experience the outside life enough. Instead, people are living vicariously through the few people who manages to have a life beyond the Internet, and is still able to share it with the world via the net.

And the biggest sign that this bleak doomed future is slowly but surely unraveling like a coiled snake releasing the crushed body of it's victim is that FACEBOOK, the hippest thing 5 years ago, is really, I mean REALLY boring nowadays, and one of its main problem? Its status updates function.


Unoriginal status updates.

FB status updates can be broadly categorised into the following

• Whining complaints - No one want's to hear about your crappy job, your jerk of a boyfriend, or how pathetic your life is. My job and my life is bad enough (though I got a lovely gf - hi baby, I love you). If you think that what you are going through is so bad that you need to share it with the world, for goodness sake do something about it. Don't whine on a global scale!
• Countdowns - This is a semi-positive status where it shows that you are looking forward to something good that is coming your way, which is great news and worth sharing, unless you think it is more fun to make the message cryptic by not writing down what the f*ck you are counting down to. What makes my day is if I see these updates where they seemingly are counting down to god knows what, and no one bothers to ask them. So much for having 1,392 friends on FB.
• Flavor of the month - World cup. Paul the eight-legged invertebrate. Who needs livescores.net when I get World Cup updates from countless friends that I didn't know actually understands football or who are suddenly affiliated (for a month) with some European/South American country.
• Lyrics of songs - especially those that don't make any sense. Most popular one so far is "I got a feeling, that tonight's gonna be a good night...". Can't stand the song, can't stand the status updates that steals from the song.

Oh, did I also mention how ridiculous it is to "like" what you yourself have just posted?
