I had a dream in which the devil told me to never use Facebook, and since the devil's pretty drat cool I did what he said. Life's never been better for me!

I think politics leads to a lot of strife and discourse, so there would have to be a "no politics" clause unless said content is just off-the-chain sweet and IN GOOD FUN. like, presidential candidate A riding a jetski up a ramp and into the gaping maw of a squirrel with demonic red eyes, or the face of presidential candidate B on that one viral meme image from a few years back of the 80s mullet dude looking sideways and sticking his tongue at a crowd as he's catching air in those three wheel motortrikes that were banned, and his Speedo thong is so skinny and tight up his rear end that his testicles are splayed out from both sides of it. basically, nearly perfect political images. ---------------- |

BoldFrankensteinMir posted:I have a theory- you guys ever heard of an "extinction burst"? Simply put it's a burst of energy (often frantic and distressed) you experience when a conditioned idea stops working. The classic example is in a broken elevator, you push a button but nothing happens. So you push it again, and still nothing happens. Then, as the idea of "push button to make elevator go" dies, your brain goes into extinction burst, as you mash the button a whole bunch of times and grunt like a psychotic monkey. Couldn't it be the other way around, though? That the prevalence of mass exposure and ethereal nature of online attention is only proving that genuine fame does in fact require time and effort, and that just being out there only reduces your likelihood of being otherwise non-remarkable in the public's eye by 0.000001% (a benefit which everyone else gets, too)? I bet that sort of realization does make for some pretty mad monkey men. ---------------- |
