I am suffering from severe facebook withdrawal syndrome. It hurts a lot :(
For some stupid reasons, listed in this post ( click link - Goodbye Facebook ), I decided not to use facebook again. And I am ruing the decision.
There is this desperate craving to open facebook and see what is happening to all the wonderful friends and acquaintances of mine. There is this incredible craving to see their profile photos, album photos, status updates and all the ping-pong replies to their status updates. I desperately want to join in and make some witty reply. The wit section of my brain is super pissed with my decision to withdraw from facebook. I also need to make some stupid replies and then apologize in facebook. I love apologizing in facebook. Sometimes I like getting caught out by someone more wittier and smarter than me. Oh, I miss the word battles...
Instead of word battles on facebook, my brain and heart are going hammer and tongs at each other....
Heart - Let me open facebook once.
Brain - No.
Heart - Please, I am suffering from withdrawal.
Brain - No.
Heart - Do you not have any heart ?
Brain - I am the brain. I do not have a heart.
Heart - Please, I beg you. How can opening fb hurt ?
Brain - You are already addicted. That is why you are suffering so much withdrawal. Further addiction is bad. Why do you want to dig your own grave ?
Heart - Oh come on.... For chronic alcoholics, they stop alcohol suddenly. But they give some other drug like benzodiazepines to ease the withdrawal... So ease my withdrawal... Let me see facebook just for a few minutes. I promise not to post any status updates or reply to other people's updates. Just one look, please...
Brain - No. Easing drugs are for other people. We follow a stricter code. No easing drugs for you...
Heart- Oh come on... You are liberal with everyone else... Why are you so strict when it comes to me ? I deserve to be treated the same.
Brain - No.
Heart - Why ?
Brain - That is the way it is. And I am doing it for your own good.
Heart- You liar. You are doing it for your own good. You do not consider my feelings at all.
Brain - I am more important than you. That is why I am protected by a skull, while you are just protected with ribs. Heart transplants are possible. Brain transplants are not. I am more important.
Heart - I thought I lived in a democracy .....
Brain - I never claimed to run a democracy. I am a dictator...
Heart - Go to hell....
Brain - Scream as you wish. You shall not open facebook....
Heart - Sob sob sob :c
Brain - Tears are not going to move me. A rule is a rule. Amen. End of argument.
As you can see, my brain will not let me open facebook. And it won't ease my pain too. Bastard....
Crap....
Take care,
Bye,
