too much love will kill you

A Fistful of Owls posted:

When the whole "CHANGE YOUR PICTURE TO A CARTOON TO END CHILD ABUSE" campaign was going strong I wrote a post asking people to change their facebook pictures to high heeled shoes as a way of generically ending all forms of violence against women. A few of my friends and I each changed our own pictures and wrote self-congratulatory posts every day and then finally announced at the end of the week that we'd fixed the problem.

Several people de-friended me over that stunt. I also got an angry message from another.

There was a counter-campaign to this running rampant around the 30-40-year old Facebook users here where someone said that this was actually a pedophile invention, because changing your avatar to a childs cartoon picture would lead to ???? which would, uhm, be good for pedophiles.
It's a bit goonsay but man, it's sad how "wont somebody PLEASE think of the children!"-type arguments can gain so much ground unopposed.

Apologies for the poo poo formatting

It's probably because I'm not American but man that dude sounds smug and annoying as all hell, not to mention belittling. I mean, going from "what's your point? make it quick." to that patriotic and not really thought through diatribe and then writing it off as a "lesson"... Come on.

Don't ask why I've liked a gay porn star, but I got an "I'm not racist but" moment out of him this morning.



The first comment on this owns. Show some decency, loving muslims!

It's on my feed as well. Are they getting money for linking images that draw on the emotions of people?
*Like if you love Jesus*
*Like if you watched The Simpsons as a kid*
*Like if you played Mario as a kid*

People are loving retarded.


In some there's not even an element of anything beyond simple recognition - there's no "oh, I remember this " but instead "Yes. I also have memories regarding this product and/or tv-show which I will express by clicking Like. Next."

I've been getting one that of you "like" it because you love God, he'll do something for you in 120 seconds. Not 119 seconds, not 121 seconds. I haven't been s harp enough lately to come up with anything to come back with.

Well, if it said 5 seconds it would be much less effort to prove it wrong.

They're both pretty sad.
