Didn't think this one was still up.

Facebook rant

Yes, it is. I got so damned tired of Facebook friends posting endless pictures of kittens with monkeys or hamsters or badgers and etc and I am a cat owner too. Actually, I think the cat owns me. Another friend posts every banal thing he does. I really don't give a damn if he eats a doughnut or has a bowel movement. He can keep all that shit to himself, if you will pardon the pun. I feel like searching him down and bitch slapping him for oversharing. Having said all that, Facebook is good for looking up cousins I haven't seen in forty years or old girlfriends or the hot chicks from high school and seeing how poorly they have aged.
