Facebook Friends Say The Darndest Things by Laurel

What are your Facebook statuses usually about? How often do you update? We all have our own preferences but the things that come across my newsfeed sometimes are just bizarre. From horrible spelling errors to venting about that special someone, I really wonder what people think about when they write their status.

Now mind you, I am from a pretty small town, about an hour south of Chicago.  Most people, who grow up here, stay here. The dating scene wouldn’t be what I call exciting.  And the nightlife isn’t always “poppin”, if you will. A couple weeks ago, “B” (we will call him) updates his status. And I quote;

“so legacy is my top 3 places to go in this town cool ppl&music..so last nite im dancing with this fine a** lady and she was like ive never been with a guy like u B4 im like for real you should come bk to my place she was like I cant im with my friends and im like dangg she was like tha nxt time ur here were def gonna…haha what u guys think she said (THA BRODY JENNER OF ILINOIS)”

There are multiple points here that cause me to shake my head.

a.)    I didn’t know that people dance in the bars in my town.
b.)   Are we supposed to comment on what we think they’re “def gonna do?”
c.)    I wasn’t aware Brody Jenner is some sort of idol to young men.
d.)   The Word document that I originally typed this in had so many squiggly lines underneath words in that paragraph you would have thought I was typing in jibberish.

Then, this Sunday B strikes again with an ever-so entertaining Facebook update. And again, I quote;

“So today I was at Wal-Mart with my grandma buying some goods and we levae to go check out and I looked at this magazine and it said my mentor BRODY JENNER is getting married to ariel levine im like wtf jus to say today is a sad day for me smmfh lol.”

Jeeze “Ariel Levine,” thanks for killing the dream for all Brody Jenner wanna-be’s out there. Oh B, I am sure you will find someone new to idolize and assist you with your dating skills. Perhaps Charlie Sheen and his goddesses will suffice.

I hope I can provide you with new updates on B soon.
