But without pages like "Music" there'd be no excuse for the pages that make a joke out of those pages.  There is one for "Being Alive," although I think "Breathing" is funnier.

The thing is, there are mindful breathing workshops offered through yoga studios, so someone could actually be a fan of... breathing.

Once I saw that someone had liked "Music." Is that necessary? Do you also like Food, and Oxygen?

I think this is mainly a holdover from when FB changed from letting you type whatever you wanted in your Info page to making you "like" anything you put on there. I had originally put "webcomics in general is what I'm getting at here."

Yeah, I've gotta get off Facebook before I start really pissing off my friends.

My new thing is to point out the so called "comedy" in allegedly funny status updates. 

For instance...

Here is the status update:

"My favorite quote this week " The best way to a mans heart, is through his rib cage"..."

My response "Ha ha, it's funny because you want to murder men."

Oh boy, I really got get away from Facebook.

I... but... Do you even understand what this is actually saying my anti war friend?  I mean that is assuming it's an authentic quote.

Yeah, and they can't tell you're not seeing their updates.

That is such a comfort to me right now.  I'm about to be an unsubscribing motherfucker.

Actually, if I take off my glasses, I absolutely see Marilyn Monroe. It's kind of shocking.

I'm incredibly nearsighted, though. I don't need a heavily altered internet photo to tell me that.

With my glasses on- on my iphone I can see Marilyn Monroe and Albert Einstein mashed together in a picture.  On my computer I see Einstein.

With my glasses off- on my iphone I can see Marilyn Monroe clearly.  On my computer it is a mash up that is heavy on the Einstein.
