Okay, my flist is interesting today, and also educational, since as usual I glance at stuff and shrug and go on my merry way. I'm not on myface or spacebook, nor do I twit, and so I'll promise all you like not to cross fertilize anything, or anything.

Although I will take this opportunity to revisit a marvellous little gem of internet confuddlery, and urge anyone who is A) having a bad day and enjoys a laugh at the woefulness of humanity, or B) has too much faith in humanity, to go read it. (Some context is useful: basically, it's an article on the integration of FB and AOL IM user contacts, and such. Apparently, it came up on the top or second-top slot when people googled the words "facebook" and "login" – and chaos ensued in the comments. The more pages of comments you read, the better it gets.)
