Now Drunk “facebook”ing?

Wine and laptops never mix!

Okay. I know, I know. Our faithful readers may wonder why we are publishing another similar article on drunken antics. Well, that is because technology keeps expanding, and that is unfortunate for those with inebriation issues.

Drunk facebooking is much like drunk texting. However, according to my secret poll (which may or may not have actually been conducted), “texters”  have an average of 45 people in their call list. To send a text, you can only send it to 10 contacts at a time on a cell phone, which I agree, is terrible enough.

Yet, imagine a world where facebook exists and users have an AVERAGE of 120 friends (I actually did read that somewhere). That means that unless you know how to set your administrative properties correctly (which , honestly, no one really does know how to do) , EVERY SINGLE person on your friend list or people just searching for you,  are reading on your “Wall” about how you want to kill your ex (with specific details) or how you’re waxing poetic about WHO F%CKING cares?

With a few simple clicks of a button (well, at least 120 if we want to be correct for our poll), any person granted permission to your account can ruin you FOREVER by forwarding your stupid comments.

Listen, people:  keep it to yourself or you’re inviting a whole world or trouble, anxiety and/or suicide for yourself.

Whatever you decide, DEFINITELY don’t send compromising pics! If you are putting information and pictures out on the World Wide Web for all to see, I have no issue with exploiting that, and neither will others!

Does anyone now have a new perspective on this issue?
