Big Brother
So I'm pretty sure Facebook knows that I'm engaged, because all the ads along the side are about wedding parties and dresses and caterers and designers and on and on. Stupid facebook, convincing me to post my life on it and then trying to sell me crap because it knows my situation. Facebook is worse than Big Brother, because it sits there, silent, and waits for us to come to it and give it everything it wants. There's some kind of evil genius to that idea.

Very true. That was one reason I never put my relationship status on it at all. When I was "single" for a while, all the ads were for dating services and "Hott men in your area!" Then I started using Firefox adblock, which makes me feel like I'm undermining capitalism.
ReplyDeleteCapitalism is for losers. And Camilla.
ReplyDeleteYeah, when I was engaged all it EVER had in the ads were wedding photography and dress shops, etc. In fact, it STILL does that to me.
