Facebook: To "like," or not to "like," that is the question...

It's funny; just two years ago, I was still hooked on Facebook and couldn't find a reason to join Twitter. Now, since I found a reason to join the social networking site for business reasons, I'm hooked on Twitter and am getting rather burned out with regard to Facebook. One of the reasons for this burn out is the click-like-if-you-agree posts. These posts appear to be ubiquitous, obvious, and suspicious. They're seemingly everywhere on the newsfeed, only an incredibly odd or sick individual wouldn't agree with them, and due to this, it leaves one (me in this case) to wonder if they're some kind of scam.

Here are just a few (exaggerated) examples of such posts:

- "I love my mom! Click like if you love yours too!"

- "It sucks when soldiers die in war! Click like if you agree!"

- "Cancer sucks! Click like if you think it sucks also!"

Well, there's a reason why these posts are so ubiquitous and obvious - it is indeed a scam, as can be read about here: http://daylandoes.com/facebook-like-scams/

In any case, I thought I'd have a little fun with these ridiculously obvious-to-like posts and share a few of my own:

- "I hate it when, in the morning, you wake up hung over and in bed with your naked first cousin and her boyfriend, Bubba! Click like if you agree!"

- "Of all the ways I don't want to go, I don't want to die in a fire as I'm teaching my Boy Scout troop how to roast marshmallows! Click like if you don't want to die that way either!"

- "If you think it'd suck to be a priest and get caught fornicating with a nun in a confession booth, click like!"

- "One time I dreamt of doing heroin, coke, and pot at the same time, while playing the drums in a marching band, and upon waking up, thought it would be a bad idea! Click like if you think so too!"

- "If you like helping other people make money off posts like this one, click like now!"

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

Trump's Lie Tally at the CNN Debate

1) "We had the greatest economy in the history of our country. We had never done so well. Every – everybody was amazed by it. Other countries were copying us." 2) "But the thing we never got the credit for, and we should have, is getting us out of that COVID mess." 3) "The only jobs he created are for illegal immigrants and bounceback jobs; they’re bounced back from the COVID." 4) "Not going to drive them higher. It’s just going to cause countries that have been ripping us off for years, like China and many others, in all fairness to China – it’s going to just force them to pay us a lot of money, reduce our deficit tremendously, and give us a lot of power for other things." (tariffs) 5) "He also said he inherited 9 percent inflation." 6) "No, he inherited almost no inflation and it stayed that way for 14 months. And then it blew up under his leadership, because they spent money like a bunch of people that didn’t know what t...
