My disdain for 'social networking' sites such as Facebook is by now no doubt well known to all three of my regular readers.
However..... it occurred to me when I was down the bar one night a few weeks back that perhaps, perhaps I would give the idea a spin... if someone came up with a site that was geared more toward my particular interests - i.e. getting drunk.
Then... inspiration struck!
Of course!!
OffMyFaceBook.com!!!
Why has no-one thought of it already??
Instead of a 'wall' for messages, we could have a 'floor' - where your friends could leave little cartoon puddles of vomit to remind you of the forgotten excesses of the night before. ("Oh no - the pavement taco! We didn't eat Mexican, did we??")
And options for our 'relationship with the drink' status might include: On The Wagon; Social Drinker; Thank God It's Friday!; Drinking Heavily; Drinking To Forget... and so on.
"Social networking for the anti-social!" I think there's some mileage in this. And the photos section would surely attract a lot more traffic than staid old Facebook.
Unfortunately, someone is squatting that domain name at the moment. Another of my million dollar ideas bites the dust!
