freudester

I just wasted fifteen minutes looking up people of yore on Friendster. The trend is that people who were ugly, skinny, and shunned then are now healthy post-dot-commers working on various IT-related things in the Silicon Valley who post pictures of themselves hiking and having fun with friends, whereas people who were attractive and well-dressed in high school are now overweight gum-smilers who work in various IT-related things in the Silicon Valley and also post pictures of themselves having fun with friends. The takeaway from today's lesson is that we all end up vermicompost, no matter where we come from.

mr. m, it's true you have pictures of yourself hiking on your friendster page, but you were not ugly, skinny, or shunned (well, skinny, maybe) and therefore were not the subject of my post.
