I have a question for all of you out there…Do you really think that your life is that important? Do you honestly think that people care what you cooked for dinner? Do you really think that people care about how long you had to stand in the HUD line (who does that?)? Do you really think we care that your man messed up…again? The answer is yes…and no.
I use Facebook as a tool. I rarely post anything personal unless I am commenting on something that I deem deep. Facebook is one of my promotional vehicles used in order to get out the Truth. Going on my page, I doubt that you will learn anything pertinent about me and that is the case with most men on Facebook. By nature, men are naturally guarded anyway. I was sitting thinking about when I first got into MySpace and it was the same deal. Women post their lives, moods, schedules, plans, quotes, addresses, escapades, sexcapades, work locations, email addresses, new car model, their man’s name, their girlfriends name, breast size, fetishes, baby’s name, the baby’s daddy’s name, his new baby’s mama’s name and address and so on and so forth. Reading the status updates and live feeds of most women is like reading US Weekly daily and the two groups of people that benefit the most from this are men and stalkers. You my dear have become a walking mark and you don’t even realize it.
Ladies, have you ever met someone from Facebook and he was everything that you thought you wanted in a man? He likes the same things that you like. He hates the same things that you hate. He took you to the restaurant that you have wanted to go to for the longest time AND he let you get cheese and a soda. He says all the right things and hardly ever says the wrong thing. Have you met that dude? THAT dude has been diligent and has read every post that you have written. THAT dude has taken notes and planned his attack for a long time. Some of you post so much of your lives on these sites that you make it easy for men. Forget getting to know you, his main concern now is to make sure that he adjusts himself to appeal to you. Instead of meeting him, you now get to meet his representative and that representative has a great advantage.
How do you know when you are addicted to Facebook? How do you know when you need to attend a meeting, get a coin and purge? How do you know when you have officially Booked your Face in the Space?
1. If every time you get a thought in your mind and you have to post it…you need a meeting.
2. If you start reminiscing and post between 5 and 30 songs back to back…you need a meeting.
3. If you are out having a blast and enjoying life, but you stop to post it on Facebook…you need a meeting.
4. If you and your significant other have an argument or disagreement and you post it on Facebook, you need a meeting AND intervention.
5. If the first thing you do in the morning is wake up, brush your teeth and post on Facebook (not always in that order)…you need a meeting AND a life.
6. If you come home from work and one of the first things you do is fire up your computer and log in to Facebook…you need a meeting, intervention AND hands laid on you.
7. If you don’t own a restaurant or don’t cater for a living, but you post every day what you cooked for dinner…you need a meeting AND some ni#^a friends.
8. If you post quotes on Facebook, but can only tell me who the author is and not the book that it came from…you need a meeting AND a library card…or at the very least a Nook.
9. If you constantly post things on Facebook that can incriminate you in a crime or aid a lawyer in divorce proceedings…you need a meeting, a GREAT lawyer and some white friends.
10. If you take this list, laugh and then post it on Facebook…you need to know that I greatly appreciate it and I love you for the support.
That is my Truth and the only reason I’m not on Facebook even more is because I can never remember my freaking password…lol. Remember, Love God, Love You and Love people.
