I have been so tired of networking sites. I would never use the word 'Sick' as there were times when I used to really enjoy it! It was a nice way to keep in touch with a lot of people you realize ever were with you in some part of your life only after finding them there and a lot or Q&A 's! I am not trying to be rude but I no more see the point of how they playing some song at so many decibels is going to be of any difference in my messed up life! Or the fact of someone having some heartache because of someone else who lost their earring! I cant even contemplate the motive behind such posts! And then in the world of online chatting comes the notorious "status messages"! If you are 'available' I might disturb you, if you are 'busy' I might respect it or if you are 'away' I might swear at you sometimes! I really don't need to know that you are eating bacon or bread for breakfast. I mean it is as stupid as the 'falling rocks' sign on motorways! What am I supposed to do? Its your life and its all that you have! Why do you have to go broadcasting! Why don't you rather tattoo your forehead "DORK". Go through anyone's wall or scrapbook. The most common expression you will find is 'long time'. This is because of the number of friends who would have accumulated in your list and many against your will. And then honestly you can't keep up. Its not whether you are free or busy it is simple that you can't keep up! I would rather watch TV along with a pint of bitter than tell someone else for the n'th time that yes I did study at that same school you are referring to! And by the time that person again remembers me my son or daughter would have hopefully finished their education. I have heard that Hailey's comet is more frequent than a few contacts on my list! And I would never commit the mistake of blaming anyone cause I am equally bad if not worse! So in order to put an end to the blame game and the unwanted question answering and the ever increasing laziness of mine I have finally decided to get out of facebook, orkut, twitter, the whole lot. It sounds funny but I have already initiated the process of destruction and have transferred rights to a couple of communities I owned to others. For me now networking is like a commitment I can never commit to and because of my delayed response sometimes someone wants to hurl an abuse at me rather than say 'hi' and then I have to think of some wacky reason as to why I had not replied to some scrap of theirs 2 years 6 months 23 days back! How the hell do I know? I don't know what happened 2 hours 6 minutes 23 seconds back! Oh yes my reason giving sucks big time! It usually leaves the person who was angry on me with major criminal intentions! I once told someone that I was enjoying sunshine in Portugal ( you are damn right I was lying ) but to only realize that the same person was just a couple of computers away in the same computer cluster I was in at the university. She looked at me and I knew I broke her heart not because she fancied me but I was caught lying and I knew she wanted to break my teeth! Luckily all that she said was a couple of words and I can't very well remember what it was! So there it goes again. I have decided to opt out of networking websites as it is simply not for me and I wont force myself into something I can't do. I do love myself sometimes. But just to keep my e-social life kicking I decided to start a new blog. My old blog would rather stay private!! But after my first post I think this is going to be even more difficult!
Oh For Crying Out Loud!
