I have come across some downright startling news over the last 24 hours. Two different stories. Both really embarrassing stories.
The first one:
Okay, a little background -- apparently there's a pretty handy website called, OpenBook.com, that allows you to search a specific word or phrase and it will pull up all the Facebook statuses from around the globe with the matching keywords. Now, it only can pull up the stati of those who don't have any privacy settings and allow the entire world to see their profile, so don't worry...the world can't see that you were pissed when Wes was voted off Bachelor Pad last night (oops, SPOILER ALERT!).
Okay so, on to the matter at hand. I came across this article that discovered a simple search of the word, "mosk" would pull up a whole slew of results. Low and behold...it did! WHAT?! Seriously? There are people out there who are spelling the word 'mosque' like that?
Personal Fave:
"Jeremy Hadden why the fuck would the build a mosk in the 911 site, that is so fucken disrespectful, when ever that thing is done hopefully some one blows it up"
And these aren't children either. If you're old enough to put the words 'fuck' and 'shit' in your status update, you're old enough to know how to fucking spell the word 'mosque,' am I right? I mean, I just don't know what to say.
And on to the second story:
A recent poll from dating website CanDoBetter.com (side note: I had never heard of this website until last night, but it definitely entertained me for a good 25 min), discovered that 64 percent of Gen Y women would release a sex tape if they knew it would help advance their careers. Seriously!? Ladies! Please! And over a third of them (36 percent) would blackmail a co-worker to get ahead. You're kidding me, right?! This is ridiculous! Where are these ideas coming from? I don't mean to get all Grandma Mary on you guys, but that's just downright sad and disgusting. Someone please tell me I'm not alone here...anyone...please.
Anyway, that's really all I have to say. America please, use spellcheck and keep the videotapes to yourselves.
