Breaking News

Facebook is now officially a celebrity making factory.Three easy steps-join,add friends,upload photos-and hey presto!You have just gained yourself those long awaited fifteen minutes of fame!
How,u ask?'Bullshit',u say?
Well,first things first,don't kid yourself into thinking that all those 59 people who wished you for your birthday (some of whom you've probably never even spoken to) would have made even half the effort had it not been for that one tiny notification on the upper right corner of their computer screens.And really,gmail is STILL an option when you want to 'share' those '22nd time we went to the park' pictures with your friends,family,extended family and acquaintances.Of course,facebook does make things a wee bit easier,doesnt it?Not only do the aforementioned get to ooh and aah at your fantastic stunt on the see-saw,a couple of hundred others do too!AND they can 'thumbs up' it!Oh,and if theyre reaalllly impressed,they might just leave behind a comment or ten!
Still doubtful about the authenticity of fb's new-found identity?Ok.Deep breath.Let me give you something to chew on for a bit,and if u don't like it,you're welcome to spit it all out-if fb had'nt magically converted you into a celebrity,would all those people dying to compare their 'What Sort of Sea Anemone Were You in Your Past Life' quiz results with yours, really and truly give a shit?Tough one,i know,but I'm willing to give u some time.Think about it while i go harvest my crops on FarmVille.And hey,don't even think of denying that teeny weeny glow that lights up your face everytime a 'youve been tagged in so-and-so' notification pops up.Even if it IS just a picture of a love struck zoozoo which so reminds your friends of you.
You have a hotel in miami,a casino in las vegas,10 million USD in your bank account,and thats just Zynga poker.If THAT does'nt make you a celebrity,then I'm sure having random people give "Social Interviews" about you,and absolutely dying to rock that famous boat of 'Fraaandship' with you,does.
Not buying my lil tidbit of information,are ya?fine.I'll post it as my status and prove it.Just you watch me.
