Stella is facebook in reality...

It's no secret Stella spends way too much time on facebook. It's the perfect utility for her to keep in contact w/ people she likes (mostly) but doesn't necessarily care enough about to call, get to know, hang out w/ etc. Maybe she can play some games or send someone a virtual cucumber wedge (wouldn't it be nice). Or she can reconnect w/ old friends from high school, hell even elementary school (kinda scary). And now her boss, co-workers, and pretty much everyone else in her real world 'social network' are on it. Stella's more popular than ever! But if she thinks about it really...what is social about the internet? Seriously, she sits alone at her computer and communicates electronically - it's like the most anti-social thing ever! And Lord knows what she's wearin' (or not wearin'). Stella would sooooo much rather chill w/ someone in person...

And again, what's w/ the virtual poking business? If someone did that in real life (haha 'real life'), Stella would be like 'seriously, did you really just do that? - don't, you're weird'. Socializin' is all about real world interaction and it can't be represented if there's a giant firewall in the way. There are many things on facebook that simply exist for the sake of existing and would not work in real life (haha 'real life'). That's it...Stella needs to think about how anti-social and unrealistic facebook is. She needs to think about facebook in reality...
