Bemused on a Friday
I have just been Un-Friended on FB for the oddest reason I might have imagined. I, evildoer that I am, laughed at someone's meme-pic and shared it on another friend's page because I knew it would brighten their day too. In my brain, I was sharing sunshine and laughter.
Alas, in the brain of the person who posted it, and they were not the only one posting it mind you, I am lacking in common courtesy because I neglected to "Like" their photograph first before Sharing it. Those were the words used. Lacking in common courtesy.
I'm not looking for validation here that I'm in the right or wrong. Because, alas, I really don't care enough about a FB Meme. But man, what an odd day to be de-friended for failing to click "Like". And one cannot say something like, "Madame. I respect your wishes and opinions. But may I offer a nice walk in the sunshine? Because if you are living for the Likes of faceless drones like me on the internet, there are much better alternatives. If you could be caused a moment of sorrow, a pang of hurt not to have a button clicked, then that machine means far, far too much for good health."
We must have waffles, forthwith.
