Dead Animals Be Gone!!!

I'm sorry, but I can't deal with it anymore. I won't post what I'm about to discuss here because many people have queasy stomachs. Dead animal photos have been popular on the Internet for a while. It's impossible to find the exact date on when they've begun to pop up on social media networks, such as Facebook, but I can't wait for the date when the photos are eliminated from them all. Going back to FaceBook, with more family members getting connected to each other and with friends, no one wants to see a crushed cat carcass on their News Feed. In fact, rather than worrying so much about loss of stock (even though they're still important), Mr. Zuckerberg, how about you deal with getting rid of these particular images first?!

No Longer in Rehab; Comic-Con 2011 Rage



What can this blogger say about Ms. Winehouse and news about her death? Is it the fact that he has never listened to any of her other songs other than, what he calls her one-hit wonder “Rehab”? Maybe he can talk about how she could have saved herself from getting involved with drugs by not being with the wrong people and staying in rehab though she had cancelled performances just because of her getting assistance to combat her addiction? Dying so young is heartbreaking. Then again, I feel sorry for the families who have lost their loved ones younger than that age than a celebrity. Think about it. Almost every day, we hear about another celebrity trying to stay away from the drugs, alcohol, or another full-time relationship. This news is a shock, but it’s also nothing new. R.I.P. Amy Winehouse. Your music touched so many people even if I’m not a big fan of your work. Maybe I’ll give the other songs a listen.


I’m disgusted with G4’s coverage of Comic-Con 2011 so far. Besides growing tired of seeing more slave Leias along with Heath Ledger’s Joker from The Dark Knight with Batman: Arkham Asylum, hearing a reporter asking attendees if some people pinched their bums increased a lot of rage. The reporter could have created better questions to ask them such as how long it took the attendees to create said costumes and the reasons why they became the characters (that were asked as of now), and their likes/dislikes about the panels. If I was at Comic-Con, I would have done a much better job with getting as much coverage about new films, comic books, and other forms of media. I would also get as many photos that would rival the Otakon 2011 albums (on Facebook since August 2010; coming to Flickr). Speaking of conventions, there will be coverage of Otakon 2011 mostly all photos if not news straight from the panels. Checking out the cosplayers is much better than sitting on the bum listening to professionals from anime licensors, fashion designers, and others discuss about future releases, trips to Japan, and popular Japanese fashions trends. If only I had an iPad, maybe coverage from the panels would hit the web much, much faster.

I'll Never Be Silent! Facebook and its Complainers


Lately, I’ve been asking myself about why I have so many friends on Facebook. Most of them don’t give a care about me when I try my best to calm their fears with some kind words despite their closest friends giving them their insight. People complain on here so much that it has made my negative mind try to be the Center of Positive Thinking. Then again, I might as well shut it down because every time I comment on a photo or status, I’m called by many things: stalker and creeper to name a few. I’m none of those things since no one knows me but myself. I think that I should return back to what I did a few months ago and stop checking up on my page every day. At least people will complain about what is going on in their lives without my two cents making them feel like I’m trying to pry into their lives. My problem is that everyone should be open with the people they add to their profiles. What’s the use for me when I’m just window dressing? I’m going to be heard no matter what and I’m not going to keep quiet because you want me to do so. Now, with that settled, I hope that everyone will realize that I can be a great friend. Sure my social skills when meeting certain people before meeting them on the social network were poor but I’m not going to stop trying to be the person that you can call on when things get rough.

Facebook Foils Friend Requests

While browsing through the Internet, I came across this opinion piece which relates to several of us who were hit with having our accounts terminated since the beginning of Facebook's impact on the world. For a social network that has become more popular due to Oscar buzz over a film with facts that may/may not be true about one one Harvard University student became the biggest billionaire ever to walk across the Earth, it has a lot of faults. We've all seen them from the unneeded photo viewer to the IM chat windows telling us that the people we've tried to communicate with have gone offline when they're clearly online as seen in the Friend Box a.k.a. the box of your friends' profile photos on the left side of the page underneath the tabs of games, messages, and events.

There's even problems when it comes to sending friend requests. I've also gone through having to seek assistance from the site when I couldn't ask a friend who I met at an anime convention or at other social events to talk to me on the site, even if I was able to get their phone numbers and e-mails which were better ways to contact them when you're out of ideas of how to connect with them.At least they'll be more responsive than Facebook ever will be.

In the article posted below, if you have found the site's corporate office number, I bet you were as disappointed as Mr. Fagin with being told that there's no phone support. In the old days, based from what I've seen of the film The Wizard, Nintendo of America was open to assisting video game players to conquer their biggest challenges on any of their games for the original NES. Now, in 2011, Fscebook still wants to ignore the fact that we, as a people, have had complaints about the site and how it's handled. I guess the people working for Mr. Zuckerburg have never cared especially if they've been paid huge sums to keep quiet about their own complaints and solutions to those complaints of the site. Heck, while I'm at it, I bet that's the reason so much money were being given to charities and schools last year. I bet Zuckerburg was playing the nice guy just to get people to see that he's not bad, but in a way, he is.

Make your own opinion about The Social Network (not the film, just about Facebook as a whole).
