One aspect of the “see everything that everyone else does” part of the FriendBurst stream is that I once again see stuff like the picture below, which one member left on another’s page…<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

HAPPY WEDNESDAY?!?! <\/span>Are you serious??\u00a0 Nothing against Wednesdays nor the person who left the comment, but come on!\u00a0\u00a0 I’m sure he or she meant well, but there is probably nothing more banal than a Wednesday.\u00a0 I mean, at least he or she might have converted it to the often used “Hump Day” which at least has sexual connotations!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

It reminded me so much of the early days of MySpace, which I guess is why so many people find this site appealing.\u00a0 I used to get glitter comments like that, but eventually they stopped because I never reciprocated.\u00a0 Some people even got mad at me because they would leave their latest glittery Hello on my page every day, and I never said Hello back.\u00a0 Well, geez, it’s not that I dislike YOU, its just the glitter.\u00a0 Really. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Happy Wednesday?\u00a0 What’s next?\u00a0 Happy afternoon?\u00a0 Happy mid-morning?\u00a0 How about…<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Maybe I should just live and let live.\u00a0 Let the glitter comment folks glitter each other.\u00a0 It really shouldn’t bother me.\u00a0 At the same time, just as this site reminds me of the early days of MySpace, I too am reminded of my snarkiness back then. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Perhaps the funniest way to deal with glitter comments is to have a glitter monitor.\u00a0 My friend, David King, the Duke of Uke<\/a>, was that person early on on MySpace.\u00a0\u00a0 His nihilistic dissection of glitter was awesome.\u00a0 This had to be the funniest comment I ever got on MySpace:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Or this one…<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

So beware, you glitterati…\u00a0 You never know what may happen to your glitter comments in the hands of a snarky wit with photoshop skills! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Have a Happy Wednesday everyone!
