Things I Would Post on Facebook (if I wasn't a big fat chicken)





Poor lonely, forgotten little blog. I ignore you for well over a year, and then thrust you out into the spotlight again with my ranting and raving. Sigh. But that is your purpose, dear little blog. A place for me to put things that I'm too chicken to put anywhere else. Especially on Facebook. That, and I also tend to think that Facebook is a terrible place to put political opinions and engage in personal debates. However, every now and then I see a person's status, and my fingers twitch with the temptation to type my (usually sarcastic) replies. And then I remember that I'm a big chicken and don't believe in that type of thing anyway.

But it must come out somewhere. So here's a random compilation of things that I would put on Facebook if I wasn't too skeered.

RE: Christian Persecution - The fact that President Obama has not held his own personal national day of prayer ceremony for all the world to see does not constitue persecution. Really! It caused you no personal harm, loss of property, or loss of reputation. You did not have to make a stand of any kind on your faith. If you ever experience actual persecution, you would never post about it on FB anyway.



RE: Prayer in Schools - Sorry, but the last place I want government is in the place of leading people in prayer. I get chills just thinking about that one.



RE: Homosexual Marriage - "Marriage is sacred!!!" Yes, yes it is random people I went to high school with....but, wait a minute, aren't you divorced? Because you weren't "in love" anymore?

RE: "I Know Who Will Re-post this" - If your post has this anywhere in it, I will hide it immediately. For real.



RE: Bra Color - I failed to see how this had any impact on finding a cure for breast cancer.




Oh, there are more. But that's probably enough for my jump back into blog world.

indeed, welcome back.

along those lines, i sometimes would love to post, "dear aquaintances who air your dirty laundry (ie anything you wouldn't really say to someone's face), you make fb a drag." but then, i'd be the drag, huh? :)

btw, are you, too, a closet wiggles fan? ;)

I wouldn't say fan of the Wiggles exactly....more like strange fascination. They are, after all, grown men who get paid insane amounts of money to, well...how does one become a Wiggle anyway? So many questions.... :)
