Ramblings

So I finally have a Facebook.

... I feel incredibly unclean. I have jumping on the bandwagon issues, and it did not help that just about every single one of my friends posted "haha, you finally caved" on my wall within one day. I guess there is absolutely no reason for them to assume it was a class assignment. In fact, it would be incredibly strange if they did. Doesn't make the reaction any less obnoxious.

See, I have this problem with things that are "popular." They just rub me the wrong way, you know? Like it's going to rob me of my precious individualism or some other such nonsense. That's why I've always liked LiveJournal. As I have seen, it always seems to be characterized in a much more nerdy, quirky way than MySpace or Facebook.

Ugh, thank God we didn't get to making a MySpace in class on Tuesday. I don't think any number of showers could have made me feel any less unclean if I'd actually made one. Hopefully there will be no reason to anymore.

I know that was melodramatic. It's just frustrating, you know? I just really prefer smaller little cult sensations to whatever's popular at the time. It doesn't bother me as much if I join early, and then it becomes a big deal, but Facebook doesn't really seem like anything special to me.

I'm probably just being stubborn though. I should give it a try and I might actually really like it or whatever.... But I really don't feel like figuring it out right now. Maybe some other time when I don't have so much homework....

I feel like I should have had links in here somewhere. Maybe I'll come back and edit this later tonight with some justification for what MySpace makes me cringe.
