Holy social network Batman!
I have a hard time with social networks as see them to be silly and a waste of time. I can not spend so many hours wondering what the hell someone else is doing when i myself need to worry about myself. My opinion and it is for reason like the one you will read about. My good friend was living with another friend that had family over (brother and three loud kids). Well after the company left my good friend posted on facebook "finally a quiet house" as his meaning wasn't meant to be harmful. Well it was taken just as that, as an attack and a return posting by his roommate stating things that probably should have been said to his face and not published for the nation. This is not a reflection of my communication but a reflection of observed communication. I have learned a bunch by observing and paying attention to friends that are in communicable disarray. I do not need to offer advice to anyone but myself I am not here to tell people they are doing it wrong. In fact I would be thanks for showing me how not to communicate. Social networking Has given us immediate access to anything one publishes online such as this. Now with this immediate access for my good friend was embarrassing and damaging and now has a strained relationship with my other friend, his ex room-mate. After this facebook posting a bunch of other stewed upon emotions came out and attacked my good friend and caused more tension than was necessary. Now all this was caused by a stinking social networking comment that could have been avoided had they simply just talked. No misunderstandings no preconceived notions about the other. All could have been well if communication even existed!
