Facebook Follies of Friends and Families

[DontSayBanana]

Adults these days,  , all they ever do is complain about the latest generation of kids.

The next generation has been the worst generation since the first generation.

Reminds me of the Club Med ad I heard that used the song "Hands Up (Give Me Your Heart)"  for one of its resorts ... at Chichen Itza.

So there is this game that popped up on Facebook...today? Maybe yesterday? Where people list 10 bands they claim they have seen live but one of them is a lie and then their bored friends with too much time on their hands try to guess which is the lie.

I am just amazed at how fast this got spoofed and then the spoof gets spoofed and quickly the whole thing becomes part of hundreds of inside jokes that nobody who was not on Facebook in the past 48 hours would understand. Crazy.

I really hope my cousin didn't go to see Ratt.

who was not on Facebook in the past 48 hours.

Three elderly North Koreans.

who was not on Facebook in the past 48 hours.

Three elderly North Koreans.

And me.

I was on fb and it passed me by. Unfollowing 90% of my contacts has a very good decision.

I had heard about this because CNN ran an... article?... editorial?... inane ramblings of a college girl? I'm not really sure but they ran something on this crucial issue:  10 thoughts about the '10 bands' Facebook meme, and one of them is just 'Why?'

I haven't followed CNN.com as closely as I did before the election; but I see their standards (which were not exactly high in the first place) have actually declined in Trump's America.  How many articles do you really need to run about Saturday Night Live?

[Eddie Teach]

Yes
Rich Mullins
Three Dog Night
Stabbing Westward
Pearl Jam
Presidents of the United States of America
DC Talk
Carmen

Stopped at eight because I can't remember any more.

Mötley Crüe (king of the genre?), Cinderella, Poison, Winger, L.A Guns, Whitesnake, Warrant, Dokken or even early Pantera are ok I guess for the genre. 
Could be worse, I mean it could be Bon Jovi. 

[Eddie Teach]

Mötley Crüe (king of the genre?)

Guns N Roses.

[CountDeMoney]

Mötley Crüe (king of the genre?)

Guns N Roses.

Guns N Roses was most definitely not hair metal.

Guns N Roses was most definitely not hair metal.

They were a hair band, though.  Most of the bands in Duque de Braganca's post weren't metal.
