A suggestion.. for Facebook! ;)


College 'kids' can be very creative especially when they get some time on their hand which happens once in a while but we always make good use of it.
I say college “kids” because I really don’t think there is much of a difference between a college going student and a kindergarten child when it comes to the creative ability to act totally absurd (but that is a story for another time)

Right now .. lets just stick to the relationship status(es).
The other day I was sitting alone supposedly doing project work ( and the Facebook window (tab) was open! ) when one of my friend (lets name him "1") rang me up and put in the conference call.. saying..

1: "Guys.. Its serious...
Me: "what happened???"
2: "you okay??"
1: "yeah.. yeah.. nothing of that type."
Me: "then??"
1: "I am not able to finish up my part of project work due to this Facebook!"
The other friend ("2") asked..
2: "why??"
1: "I just cant concentrate after i see various relationship status(es) of people!
Me: "Arrrrghh... Dude.. DO your part.. we need to submit the work tomorrow!"
2: "wait re.... haan, you say.. what did you see?"
1: "no no.. chuck that.. tell mw one thing....
2: "hmm..."
1: " Omi.. u there?
Me: "ya.. listening to your bakwaas"
1: "haan.. then what does Facebook say if you try and make a 'three-way relationship'?”
Me: "huh?????"
2: (immediately replies): “Wanna give it a try?”
Me: "lol..."
1: Wow, it really says that?

I hope you got the joke there and no further explanation is required in this matter. I don’t quite know why, but somehow we ended up spending the rest of the afternoon coming up with various facebook relationship statuses. The list goes something like this:


Single
Sleeping Around
In a Relationship
In a Fight
On a Break
On the Rebound
Love-hate relationship
Trying out the other gender
Engaged
Married
About to Get Divorced
Divorced
Lonely
It's Complicated
Can't Talk About It Right Now
In an Open Relationship
In a Long-Distance 'Disaster'
Deciding Between Two People
Happily Cheating on My Partner
Trying Out the 'No Sex Thing'
Cyber Dating
Ugly

What is your relationship status?
(Perhaps we could add it to the list)
