Side note upon humanity through facebook.
So I just used the 'like' button on a status. I feel slightly e-dirty. The like button is just another for humanity to demonstrate its laziness and apathy, and it shows that facebook devs know that well enough to even put such a button there.
If it the like link wasn't under the status, I wouldn't have been arsed to do anything about it. read. react a bit. move on. But thanks to the 'like' capacity, with the effort of one click, I can appreciate something with no other thoughts about it, except to 'click.' I have no witty comment, no repeating someone else's comment, or even just a dull 'haha.' I click it and move on.
It's a vent for apathy, but to make us seem to not be apathetic, but in reality, merely showing the lack of caring or the need/effort for real interaction. It's like a get out of jail free card in monopoly. But oh so much more e-dirty. Unless you're playing monopoly online of course.
