The BOL was recently asked to discuss Status Updates, or more specifically “to do an expose on the farce that is the relationship status”. There are only a few options and yet they are sooo telling:
Single—this is what 2/3 Board Members claim and yet, the only time you should be required to tick this little box is if you’re doing your taxes. It’s kinda like advertising “bring me out on a date, I’m lonely”.
It's complicated—do you need to let all your coworkers know this? This status is only allowable under the age of 16 or if you’re knocked up by someone but don’t actually like them. (like on 16 and Pregnant)
Open Relationship-We didn’t realize this was the 70’s. Just try to keep your STD’s away from us.
Engaged
-Ahem, there’s still a chance for us, right? Right?Married
-In other words, you’re boring (unless you have single friends, in which case we like you again)The real clincher is that Fbook tells all your friends every time you change your status. Do you really want to advertise every one of your breakups? Our vote is to keep it blank and keep ‘em guessing!

ReplyDeleteI one tried to change my FB status to "married to the sea." It wouldn't allow me.
