I'll post something on teh Facebooks that is something normal; a status, a picture, ya know, the typical things. Then the next day I'll check the interwebs again and a bajillion people have "Liked" or commented on whatever it was that I posted. This holds true for my most current status.
"Dear asshat who took my stuff out of the dryer,
I'm sure your stuff will be totally dry by the time you go back down to the laundry room in an hour. Oh wait. No, it won't.
Sincerely,
I turned off your dryer."
As of when this post is going up, that status has 46 "likes" and 7 comments.
I really don't know why this keeps happening. I know. I said that just a few sentences ago and it's considered bad form to keep repeating the same thing over and over, but it's just really true. I don't. Know. Why.
I've never considered myself a particularly funny person. I just say what's on my mind and some people find that amusing, I guess. I think it also has something to do with the fact that I've rarely posted on Facebook as of late. It's like how people say that distance makes the heart grow fonder or whatever that crap is: the less I post on Facebook, the more love I get when I do post something. It's coincidental (not ironic) that this is happening because I used to post to Facebook all the freaking time. Yes. Freaking time. I think I was addicted to Facebook when I was in high school. Now that I'm partially more "out in the real world" of college, I'm realizing that I don't really want to share my little tid-bits with my Facebook "friends." I'd rather do something like this, where I can write out everything instead of trying to keep it in the confines of what is acceptable for a Facebook status. And if I do have something that is 140 characters or less to share, it will most likely go to my Twitter because hardly anyone follows me on that site.
I mean, I'm flattered that people find my statuses and things to be worthy of their attention, but I'm somewhat of an introvert, so it also kind of freaks me out and I don't know how to respond. I always feel like I should post a comment that thanks everyone for their time or something similar. I just don't do well with these situations. But they keep happening. And I don't know why.
