A
I’m
not
so
sure
I
like
my
friends
any
more?/p>
I
used
to
like
them
?/p>
to
be
honest
.We’d
have
lunch, talk on
the
phone or
exchange emails
?/p>
and they all seemed normal
enough.
But then came FaceBook, and I was introduced to a sad fact
?/p>
many of my friends have
dark sides that they had kept from me
?/p>
Today my friends show off the more unpleasant aspects of their personalities via
FaceBook.
No
longer
hidden
?/p>
they’re
thrown
in
my
face
like
TV
commercials
?/p>
unavoidable
and
endless
advertisements
for
the
worst
of
their
personalities
?/p>
Take
Fred
?/p>
If
you
were
to
have
lunch
with
him,
you’d
find
him
warm,
and
self-effacing(
谦逊的
)
.Read his FaceBook and you’ll realize he’s an unbearable?/p>
food-obsessed boring man
.He’d pause to have a cup of coffee on his way to save a
drowning man
?/p>
and then write about it
?/p>
Take Andy
.You won’t find a smarter CEO anywhere, but now he’s a CEO without
a
company
to
run
?/p>
So
he
plays
Mafia
Wars
on
?/p>
He’s
doing
well?/p>
level
731
?/p>
Thanks
to FaceBook
,I know he’s playing about 18 hours a day.Andy, you’ve run four
companies
?/p>
and this is how you spend your downtime? What happened to golf? What
happened to getting another job?
Take
Liz
?/p>
She
is
positive
that
the
flu
vaccine
will
kill
us
all
and
that
we
should
avoid it
?/p>
And then comes Chris who likes to post at least 20 times a day on every
website he can find
?/p>
so I get to read his thoughts twice, once on FaceBook and once
on Twitter
?/p>
In real life
,I don’t see
these sides of people
?/p>
Face to face, my friends show
me
their
best
.They’re
nice?/p>
smart
people
?/p>
But
face
to
?/p>
my
friends
are
like
a blind date which goes horribly wrong
?/p>
