WHY I LOVE FACEBOOK
Recently I read an interesting account as to why some1 left face book.. On the other hand I think I am hooked to it .. Here is why....
They say time is a great leveler.. Oh yes it is but so is face book.. The girl who was over smart in class and you secretly detested is now on your friend list.. And you love to read that she is a homemaker while you can boss over 50 people.. Yippee..
OH ! Yes also in the case of ex’s.. You can secretly laugh and feel good that you were far better..:) How mean! I know.. Now don’t grin.. We all do that.
It is a great stress buster.. It’s great to read a status update by an ex- colleague that he is also having a bad day at work .. So you aren’t the only one.. :)
And suddenly you are at peace with your weighty issues.. The girl in your class who shared size XS with you in hostel also wears size L now..:)) See didn’t i say blame it on age, children and that slice of cheese cake.. It’s a universal issue....
Face book makes you scientific in approach. Let me explain.. You wonder (with jealousy of course) how Z has managed to stay as young ( read thin) as she was.. And you remember that her mother is thin too.. Blame it on her genes.. It’s all in the chromosome.
It connects.. As the logo says.. Suddenly you are aware that the guy you barely remember from past job is having a great holiday in Maldives.. And of all people why they have to post pictures of them having fun while you are slogging at your desk..
It’s a great place to gossip.. Oh yes! you can discuss the changed relationship status of someone you had gone to college with.. "Psst.. Wasn’t she seeing that one in college.." Women and gossip I tell you :)..
It also makes you very Tolerant..
Tolerant to gyaani’s on net who want to share the unwanted gyaan straight out of books..
Tolerant to the picture obsessed ones’ who would post just about anything and in truck loads.. read 300- 400 pictures of a wedding they attended.
Tolerant to the showy kinds who would post party pictures next to an item( read semi clad lovely woman with great hair) they themselves don’t know..
Tolerant to the perennially bored one’s and their sheep’s, ducks and melons..
Tolerant to the always wow one’s who would comment “ soooo cute!” even on the badly clicked picture of someone they remotely know..
Tolerant to a thousand cause request’s without even knowing how your joining that group can help the cause..
Thank god mere paas face book hai....but as Appy would say.. mere paas Kaam hai..
