Look what the world has come to !

The first thing i read this morning:

"You like someone. They're in a relationship. Be the first one to know when they're out of it" promises the app's website.

I wonder what will the world look like 2 years from now with social websites coming up with so much drama - melodrama.

Success at the age of 4 - not peeing in your pants, at the age of 18 - a driver's license, at the age of 30 - money, friends and sex, at the age of 50 - sex and at the age of 80 - not peeing in your pants.

2 years from now...

Success at the age of 4 - Updating status on facebook about when you were successful not peeing in your pants and expecting more than 5 likes and 10 comments, at the age of 18 - Create a poll on face book on "how ugly your girlfriend/boy friend was" and make sure facebook banned his/her profile and you tweeted about it, at the age of 30 - Get your wife pregnant by sending her a facebook request, at the age of 50 - You've got success coz you're not a loser ! Atleast you have the facebook wall to talk to ! at the age of 80 - Have the courage to delete your own profile on facebook, else hell yea ! you're a pedophille !

How strange that the world has forgotten the simple pleasures of meeting one on one to play scrabble or have coffee or worse yet have a conversation before breaking up than breaking up over a facebook message. The pleasure of taking pictures to savour them in future than to tag them ! The excitement of making friends in person by meeting them more often than adding them as friends and never ever meeting them again ! The nuances of apologizing to loved ones than hoping you still remain friends with them on facebook.

Life has become a joke in a certain sense of the word and friendships and relationships - elements of the joke !

Save yourself ! Get a life - a real one !
