facebook status updates

These updates are so ridiculous (i.e. eating sushi with my best friend, drinking vodka, heading to the gym and then hiking, staying in with my man). We have become a nation where everyone is desperate for attention. We want everyone to know that our lives are more exciting than they really are. That is the only explanation for posting updates on our daily affairs. I have yet to see this post in all of the millions of updates that flash across my screen--AM READING A REALLY GOOD BOOK. Does anyone even like do that anymore? I mean like totally. Lame.
