good morning facebook

good morning Facebook. i'm quite touched that you ask how i'm feeling, but why do you never say anything about yourself? i'm beginning to wonder if you're ok, because it's not good to be so closed about your feelings... and bottling things up doesn't help, you know

or maybe you're a creepy voyeur type who's got some unconscious fear of people, and so observes from a distance without revealing anything themselves? i'm not sure if i want to let you know any more about me if you're one of those. i saw a film once about a guy who did that and he ended up killing himself, but not before he pissed everyone off

but really: there are so many things i don't know about you: what your real name is, if you're single, what you do for a living, where you live, if you've ever been married, where you went on holiday - do you even take holidays? somehow i don't think so

but i do know this much: you're very, very rich and you seem to know everything about everyone. it seems that literally millions of other people trust you with their secrets but i'm a bit bothered that you in fact might be a very clever con artist who's selling your knowledge to people i don't know

and that makes me feel a bit strange, to tell the truth. so yes, this how i'm feeling: a slightly nauseous mild paranoia tinged with a kind of cold anger, but all a bit diffuse, as i'm not completely sure if you're conning everyone. i think it's time for you open up, tell us all more about yourself, so we might trust you a bit more. honestly, sometimes it's like talking to a machine
