"Social media"

"Social media" We all are victims of social media, myself included. Society is addictive to it like a drug user addicted to heroin. Within a 24hr day, we spend over half our life on social media. Many moons ago, before social media exited, people might consider life as being boring. Life was simple then. I'm not saying social media is a bad thing, but anything in moderation is good. When I talk about social media, what am I talking about? Well, for one thing is, the internet. I admit, I'm on it a lot too. I also use a computer at work. Sometimes that job get backed up on work, there are times when we have to work overtime to catch up. I work with two other guys in this area, when I work in this area. This older guy that also work in my organization, but do a different job. He mentioned to me, the reason we behind, we spend too much time on sports scores, checking songs on youtube and Pandora, and not doing anything work related. I figured it out, we did waste almost half the day messing around on-line, in an 8 hour day, that one day..He was right. Didn't realized how much time we spend on the internet daily, this just at work. Another social media is Facebook. Now Facebook has casino, slots on-line that you can gamble for free, people who was a member now is. I have a friend of the family, she don't work, she on disability for her depression, bless her heart. She told me, from the time she gets up, and the time she goes to bed, that if she don't have to go anywhere, she can be on Facebook on and off for 14hrs. That's over half her day. And within the other 10hours she got to sleep. Another social media is twitter. Everyone does it, even famous people do it. Well, I haven't, but I'm not famous. Another social media is texting, did you know this technology is putting the post office out of business, people don't write letters anymore. Besides that, at one time more people died it car accidents by texting while driving, than drunk driving. I remember reading about this lady texting while driving, she went under a semi truck, and was beheaded, so sad. If you get a text while you driving, wait till you can pull over, then answer the text. Still not saying social media is wrong or bad, don't spend your whole day or whole life on social media. Get out, go for a walk, take a trip, meet people and be "SOCIAL" Fun fact: Did you know eating chocolate cake for breakfast helps you lose weight? Morning is when the body's metabolism is most active, and eating chocolate for breakfast stop the craving for sweets later. Riddle time: What start with "P" and end with "orn" and is the hottest part of the movie industry? Answer: Popcorn Riddle time" What goes in dry and hard, but comes out wet and soft? Answer: chewing gum.        |
