Sanity Check: How to lose Facebook friends

Greetings, smarty-pants university-type people!

At the request of my personal hyper-cephalized companions, I have come to you with yet another installment of your beloved Sanity Checks.  This week's subject?  How to lose friends on Facebook.

The Insanity
With over 900 million people on the site as of March 2012, generating 3.2 BILLION "likes" PER DAY in only the first quarter of 2012, it is safe to say that a lot of the world's population is doing their part in giving a daily offering to our all-powerful holy Z-berg, creator of The Book of Faces.
Isn't he just fucking dreamy...
But you know, the more people we get on Facebook, the more accurate our sample becomes at reflecting the trends of the general populace (yes, this girl took statistics).  Hooray!  We get to know about the public...and we all know one thing about the public, yes?  PEOPLE SUCK.  I swear, as this website becomes more and more mainstream--forgive my hipster moment--users are starting to see a huge influx of individuals who are ANNOYING AS SHIT.

Sanity Check: You, sir, are an asshole, but I love you.

Greetings, nerdy-pants!

Today, we're going to be talking about some stuff on the dangle-y genitalia front.  We've already talked about girlfriend hysteria, but we have yet to talk about the forces that drive it, outside of some girls just being down-right bat-shit.  I feel like one of those intro-series professors that just kind of tell you that polar molecules dissolve in water, but refuse to explain why.  Gentlemen, there was no way you were going to get away with me not talking about your contributions to our hysteria.  We're talking about how not to suck at being a boyfriend today, so put on your big-boy pants, dearies; this is gonna get ugly.

Nerdgasm: Science Edition

Hello to you, my hyper-cephalized companions!

Welcome to a long due "It Came from The Interwebz"!  I know that most of you were expecting, perhaps, a Thanksgiving blog, but I really have nothing to say about such a lukewarm holiday.  Warm and fuzzies do not make funny blogs, nor interesting reading material for you all.  SO INSTEAD we're going to talk about a virus that killed 5% of the world population, among other super cheery topics related to mad science, k? ^_^
It's like I was made for this or something.

The Big, Bad, Facebook Update Monster is...Awesome??

Hello to you, my fellow smartypants university-type people!  I greatly apologize for the long hiatus.  If you happen to attend my establishment of higher education (Western Washington University), you are well aware that it is the first week of classes.

Translation for me?  "OMG I HAVE RESPONSIBILITIES AGAIN?!!  GAH!"  So I've been getting on top of my reading and figuring out some extra-curricular logistics this week.  Sorry for leaving you in the dark.  As the quarter progresses, I may---and I hate to say this---have to reduce my posts to either 2 or 1 per week.  We shall see, but don't worry your pretty little over-sized heads about it; I'll keep ya in the loop.

Also, BlogSpot/Blogger went through an update, and now if you click on any of my pictures, you'll be able to see them full size.  YAY!

Now, then, on to the main attraction!

Behold, the mighty all-knowing Holy Z-berg!
Mark Zuckerberg, our highly worshipped, highly paid, all-knowing cyber-god, announced a couple days ago that Facebook is set to go through a MAJOR reformatting update.

Hello to you, my dear hyper-cephalized companions, and welcome to another Sanity Check on TPP.  It's that time of the week again; time for me to save you some of those precious IQ points.
