New Adventures of Queen Victoria by Pab Sungenis for January 03, 2013

social media is a bane on society…some say it is necessary, others disagree.

Really? I may start watching those shows again, just to see the new level of stoopidity.

I’ve taken a hiatus from Facebook— my right-wing friends have not yet gotten over the election (just two days ago they posted a link to Orly Taitz and new evidence that there is a Kenyan in the WH!) (dipped my toe in to congrat Dave and Jeff on their engagement), and now the gun nuts have come out of the woodwork.

I left FB over a year ago, then had to rejoin for a class. I finally cut the last grasping tendrils off completely. Now half the blogs I go to require you to be on FB in order to comment.

I am a reluctant observer with some real friends and then some “friends” I have no clue who the hell they are.I never comment or respond to the cutesy pictures of their kids and pets or to those devotional or political postings.I don’t tweet and text only when necessary. Ditto emails.Social Media is sort of like a religion or church, some need it more than others.

Linguist – And yet you’ll comment your fool head off on a comic strip site. Hypocrite.

Try the setting marked “Bend over and brace yourself.”
