Bloogies, today will be another not so political post about the great interweb! So, all those people who love only political progressive bloggers, can take a long walk off a long pier and then, i dunno, enjoy their day somewheres other than my blog? Anyway... Now to the blog.
My brother, who shall hence forth be named Skeeter, was surfing the net the other day. When, out of the great depths of Facebook itself, popped up a friendly friend invite from a not so expected friend. They were adults, who i shall hence forth call Henry and June.
Henry and June are friends of the family. They know your fellow pasta and they know his brother, Skeeter. But, then again does that make it okay for them to approach skeeter on Facebook? One way or another, both me and skeeter felt that some boundary was being pushed.
Of course, i am talking about one thing that is most unspoken about our modern teen society, yet it is one of our greatest powers. Our reliance and trust in the almighty internet.
We IM each other, we Facebook, we youtube, we even blog for scholarships. And the one defining thing that made us feel secure in it all is that the older generation didn't know how. And they didn't bother to find out. But that is changing, with newer eras the internet is becoming a more even aged demographic. And so that buffer is in the process of being destroyed.
As me and Skeeter both laughed and freaked over Henry and June's friend invite, I wondered why it would seem so socially awkward. I suppose it is that we go to the internet to relax or escape. And adults, no offense to any reading this, usually spell destruction for our world.
Of course this leads me to the question for you, my bloogies. Why should there be such an awkward gap? Is it simply that mixing adult friends with teenage friends is socially unheard of? Or is it something to do with a new social set of rules of the web? Would you put your BFF and the librarian on your top8?
I wouldn't. I hate MySpace.
From the the deep deep depths,
watching the lives and the deaths,
the circle continues onwards,
