I just walked past someone's front room and they were
sitting in front of a laptop clearly on Facebook, because
their forehead was clearly slightly bluer than the rest of
their face, and it occurred to me that with a sufficiently
bright display with an ultraviolet component, just as there
used
to be screen burn, someone who spends a long time
on Facebook could actually have the general features of
Facebook tanned into their face, which would provide them
with vitamin D. Alternatively, it could just be projected
onto their face like in the movies. You could then take
photos of people with Facebook face and publish it as a
book. This book could then be opened, photographed and
projected onto people's faces, and those faces could be
published in a book, the Facebook Face Book Face Book,
and so on.
As a slight aside, this has two other consequences. One is
that a monitor which has UV light could provide vitamin D,
and the other is that people who use Facebook too much
might eventually develop solar keratoses and eventually
melanoma in the shape of the site design, which seems
strangely appropriate.

The upside is people end up with a head full of mindless crap posted by mindless people like me to endlessly mindlessly read. |
|
|
This is so weird- I like it! one burned bun! |
|
|
So we would all have the HB header burned on our foreheads... |
|
|
I can clearly see the cataracts. |
|
|
I enjoy the term "facebook face". Enough so to give
you a bun. |
|
|
"Facebook face" would be the exact inverse of
"farmer's tan." "Farmville tan," maybe. |
|
|
//Farmville tan// gotta use that sometime. |

This is a fine idea for shits and giggles, but I think you should lose the part about injecting any hope of medicinal value into the experience. |
|
|
That's a [nineteenthly] thing. He still believes there's hope
for humanity. |
|
|
The medicinal value is balanced by the carcinogenicity, and how dare you suggest that i think there's hope for humanity? |
|
|
Oops... My mistake. Somehow I gleaned from our previous
annoconversations that you have the interest of your
fellow (hu)man at heart. I do hope you haven't taken insult
from my erroneous aspersions. |
|
|
...and if thou gaze long into an abyss,... |
|
|
Thou shalt have wasted the day staring down a deep hole.
Very seldom in human history has this worked out in
anyone's favor. |
|
|
Here's looking at you kid! |
|
|
Well it's not like anyone on here does that ever. |
|
|
If you two are trying to point out the casual hypocracy of
my "wasted a day" quip, in that I have been on this forum
all day today, yes, that was semi-intentional. |
|
|
(All others please note that I do not consider HB a waste of
time--far from it, in fact. However, in that I have
contributed very little of value in my annos today, as is
often my wont, I have successfully wasted all of your time
with my drivel. Mission accomplished!) |
|
|
[Alt...] I was not trying to point out any hypocracy. I am of the firm opinion that you would have wasted your day regardless, be it here, or anywhere else for that matter. |
|
|
My point was more to the sentience of the abyss itself. The longer you stare into the abyss the more the abyss knows of you. Much like farcebook. |
|
|
I have a sneaky suspicion that [nine...] has been re-reading Nietzcthe (did I spell that right? I can never tell) |
|
|
And now, switching to a completely different subject. Is there a facebook page set aside for the Irish? |
|
|
Why should their page be set aside from the others? |
|
|
Cause we are the best there is. |
|
|
Well, Oi was tinking more along da loines of an itsy bitsy teeny weeny soized page fer da little folk. Not meself ye understand. |
|
|
//Why should their page be set aside from the others?// |
|
|
So the rest of us don't get any on us. |
|
|
Oi woz only try'n to save deyr bacon fr'm all dat Gammon radiation stuff. Instead of bei'n green dey would look loik dem Smurfs. |
