Facebook Humor - Enjoy!

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Capital Properties DC AB15253
For those of my generation who do not, and cannot, comprehend why Facebook exists: I am trying to make friends outside of Facebook while applying the same principles.

Therefore, every day I walk down the street and tell passersby what I have eaten, how I feel at the moment, what I have done the night before, what I will do later and with whom; I give them pictures of my family, my dog, and of me gardening, taking things apart in the garage, watering the lawn, standing in front of landmarks, driving around town, having lunch, and doing what anybody and everybody does every day I also listen to their conversations, give them the "thumbs up" and tell them I like them.

And it works just like Facebook. 
I already have four people following me: two police officers, a private investigator, and a psychiatrist.Wink

Funny, Lise. I never cease to be amazed at all the personal information people put on the Internet.

When you extrapolate what everyone does on Facebook and apply it to the real world it does sound a bit creepy

Good morning Lise.  Funny yes, truthful you bet.  I just never understand the fascination with anyone posting what they do on Facebook...

Hi Lise -- although I had heard this before, it still brings a smile to my face...it is often incredible some of the things people "share" on social media but would never think of doing in "real life".   Hope you are having a great weekend.

Pretty funny!  I am sure that doing some of the stuff that we do on Facebook, would certainly work better if we did it in person, such as commenting on something that is happening in a person's life, whether it be good or bad.

Lise this is very funny :).  I sign in to Facebook and I get asked  how am I feeling, what makes me happy etc..  The algorithm is not working, those are answer I am not going to share.

Hi Lise... I'm always wondering why all these people even think their friends and followers care about what they are doing and when.
