If it wasn’t for Facebook…

I realized this week that I learn a lot of things about people thanks to Facebook. I don’t really have time to be a Facebook stalker – but I don’t even have to. All I need to do is log in and take a quick look at my mini-feed.

If it wasn’t for Facebook I wouldn’t know:

·        Who had a horrible day

·        Who had a great day

·        Who is going out for dinner

·        Who hates the rain

·        Who is looking forward to the weekend

·        Who will be working over the weekend

·        Who is trying to get pregnant

·        Who is looking for cheap pregnancy tests

·        Who is pregnant

·        Who lost their baby

·        Who is going on vacation

·        Who is engaged

·        Who is in a relationship

·        Who is no longer in a relationship

·        Who has an iphone

·        Who is unemployed

·        Who just got a job

·        Who hates their job

·        Who is studying for tests

·        Who buys cloth diapers

·        Who buys disposable diapers

·        Who is potty training their child

·        Who is sick

·        Who is saving water by showering with their significant other

·        Who needs a break

·        Who hates their parents

·        Who can’t wait for the summer

·        Who is excited for a date

Believe me, this list is not comprehensive! It seems to me that if it wasn’t for Facebook, I wouldn’t know anything about anyone. On the other hand, because of Facebook I know too many things I wish I didn’t know.

Perhaps I should pay more attention to the things I post as well. I wonder what kinds of things others find out about me through Facebook.
