Hey Terry's Peeps, I've nominated you for the "My life is awesome and your life is awesome so post one photo for seven days about how awesome your life is" challenge. Also, be sure to include a description that talks about how awesome your life is because doing this literally every week anyways isn't enough that we need a challenge. Also, don't forget to tag other people when you do it so then their friends also see how awesome your life is too even though they don't care at all.

This is important because it's not like facebook is an app/website designed with the whole purpose of sharing information about your life. We need challenges like this.

You should have used the word 'amazing' several times.

Sooner or later, if it hasn't happened already, a single mom is going to start a "GLASS OF WINE" challenge.

Your Facebook feed is dictated by you, i.e. your friends, likes, blocks, etc. My Facebook feed is devoid of this nonsense, full instead of other nonsense. The only wine chugging cougar who makes a regular appearance isJoe Orr Road Rod.

Can you tell me why my feed contains clickbait for terrible jokes and lists, and when I "unlike" them and unfollow them, they come right back?

Man, I sound like a Gen X'er.

over the years i kind of came up with a little jingle that i'd occasionally sing to myself that goes "CONGRATULATIONS you've reproduced!! let's put some pics on facebook" cuz holy shit so many poor kids nowadays don't have a chance with moms-n-pops eschewing traditional photo albums to put everything online b4 they can even figure out that not shitting themselves is a good idea.

then the best part is when you eventually notice "hey i haven't seen [dude who was prolly your best friend circa 4th-5th grade] post on facebook for awhile... what happened?" then you load him up and see that he's casually defriended you like the plague that you are. my best guess is that he's a blue-bleeding (partial?) cubs season ticket holder, so when i ended up doing that one shoop to commemorate 100yrs of HISTORY at wrigley field he very well might have taken umbrage? (yes i know i'm me and all and thus many of you are thinking something like "i wouldn't want your crazy ass/bullshit on my feed" but you can ask anyone on here who's fb friends with me, i pretty much only toss up occasional instagram posts on facebook...and i like to think i'm halfway decent at instagram)

ah well c'est la vie, no?
