I like you for you. Then I noticed him looking down and tinkling the ivories on his cell phone. It turned out he was putting on Facebook, Im with Michael Musto! ... Even more tragically, I was flattered....

Ive followed people as a complete charity , only to realize they never followed me back. I usually decide to unfollow them, then start wondering if its worth giving them that much power.... You lie and tell someone you have to stay home and work the night theyre having a birthday party, only to have people tweet that youre actually at Whole Foods,new york escort then a club, then an after party, then riding your bike in circles. Busted times four.... Why look at cute photos of cats on Instagram when you can see them actually moving and sounds on YouTube?

All day long I get requests from a parade of whiners begging me to join LinkedIn. This has gone on for five years! I aint linking in, people! ... But I am on Twitter, and I even tried putting hash tags on every tweet to get extra followers, but it didnt work, so I stopped that. Besides, why add bells and whistles to a brain flatulence when the whole point is to keep things short and insubstantial? ...

I communicate every day with dozens of people Ive never met. Meanwhile, real friends never call.... People beg you to like their page, as if that will somehow add substance to their yearning existence. Sadistically, I withhold all liking. Hahahahahaha.... Gushy people in the provinces message you that they adore your work and are dying to be friends because youre so witty and amazing and they just want to soak in the glow of your greatness.
