It seems like every couple of months there’s an overhaul to a major Facebook feature and people freak out in response. I’m not entirely sure why people pretend to care about how they receive their status updates, when in truth Facebook is just there to feed into their narcissistic worldview. I suppose anything that inhibits that is frustrating. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I need to update my Facebook with some clever pictures of cats.
Vague Facebook status updates just about ruin it for me. Even worse, some people I really like are the worst offenders. Look, if it’s too personal to post about in any detail, then it’s probably too personal to post about even vaguely. Not everything has to be shared. Except crabs. You should probably let others know you’re afflicted. For safety reasons.
It’s always surprising how willing people are to share their dirty laundry on Facebook. And yes, that was meant both figuratively and literally. Did social media fundamentally change people, or have people always been eager to do so? For comedic effect, we’ll say a little of both. That leaves more opportunities for jokes.
This strip stems from visiting the campus library and noticing almost no students are ever looking at books. The ones who are seem to be eying them suspiciously. Perhaps they’re contemplating uses other than reading?
Dorks simply cannot win. Even when they become billionaire manipulators of the world, they still have people making movies about what dorks they are. Worse, the movies are written by other dorks. It’s dork on dork violence. Can’t we all just get along to a Dungeons and Dragons convention?
