A couple days ago one of my friends told me, "I wanted to tell you, since a couple other people know already, that if I were to post my relationship status on facebook, it wouldn't say single anymore." She could've said "I wanted to tell you that I'm dating someone," but didn't. What does that SAY about our TIMES?

haha that's the kind of thing i say when i am embarrassed abt some similar declaration -- i go SO round the house w/it that everyone is left less the wiser than when i started ("wtf, either mark is dating or he is redecorating the bathroom or... something is difft, unless it isn't?")
= it sez nothing abt our times except some ppl (ie me) are circumlocutory ninnies sometimes

facebook groups really are just a way for you to collect a bunch of opinions you agree with to present in a column on your profile know where you stand on things i guess. not including the "jokey" ones.

that's bollocks, the holloway road/cally road appreciation society is a really close-knit, informative community!
― ken c, Thursday, 23 August 2007 14:11 (sixteen years ago) link

― Filey Camp, Thursday, 23 August 2007 14:13 (sixteen years ago) link

― Rubyredd, Thursday, 23 August 2007 14:15 (sixteen years ago) link

my street sign was featured in peter jackson's "the frighteners". it's my sole claim to (lame) fame.

What the fukk is the go with "Jedi vs Sith" and zombies and pirates and all that horseshit?? Are they actually "fun"? Is there a point to these things? Is there any skill involved?
I don't understand :/
― W4LTER, Monday, 27 August 2007 06:58 (sixteen years ago) link
The pirate-ninjas thing sounds like a pyramid scheme to me, except nobody gets paid. Saw a guy shilling for an America vs Canada one earlier... "First to a million members wins!" No, you don't. The Internet: Making the Internet sadder, one day at a time.
And what is with the gifts?
I'm never an early adopter, though. So if any of those applications and customizations are worth anything, I won't know 'til 7 months later.

WHO WUD WIN CHUCK NORRIS OR A ROBOT
The whole student pirate thing is utterly, utterly pointless, and fucking irritating. And so many people do it!

none of this changes my opinion of ninjas
― latebloomer, Monday, 27 August 2007 09:49 (sixteen years ago) link
xpost - It's just such a fucking hackneyed, lame, unimaginative means of adopting a frivolous alternative character. If you're not going to be yourself, at least be something original.
If you could genuinely pull off being a ninja, however, you have my maddest props.
