Let's not discount natural events either. A few months ago, I wrote a blog post about the deep reddish and orange hues of the Oslo sky in Edvard Munch's painting, The Scream - they were a manifestation of the 1883 Krakatoa volcanic eruptions (http://bobyewchuk.wordpress.com/2013/10/01/the-scream/).
Hello ladies...
Take a look at your man, hunched over the computer monitor,
Now back at me.
Now back you man, who's been playing WoW for two days straight.
Sadly, he isn't me - and will likely never live my envious lifestyle or even own a horse,
But since he's already a hardcore gamer, he may as well smell the part too...
Seriously, if I unfriended everyone who posted inane junk on their wall, I'd have no friends. It's easier to just quit Facebook.
That worked for me. Oh, by the way, here is my 243rd post proudly declaring that I'm going to the gym to work out today.
My pet peeve is the salespeople. One of my former FB friends was a travel agent and sent daily status updates promoting the best travel deals, along with his agency's web site and phone number. One shamelessly promoted his wife's Tupperware business, and another used FB to advertise his home-based scented candle franchise. One friend even posted "Anyone interested in a two storey, four bedroom house?".
The answer to the question of Life, the Universe, and Everything is... Four day work week, Two ply toilet paper!
