sigh.
So I'm randomly depressed about something stupid...and I'm about to rant about it.There is this application on facebook called "compare people" and it's what it says...comparing people based on looks, personality, aptitude, etc. It is basically judging two people on "cooler" or "more intelligent," "more likely to succeed," "funnier," "cuter."
So I know that everybody is all happy when they are voted the prettiest by 4 of their friends! 100%! but what people don't realize is that there is someone who was voted against them as ugly. or just not as pretty. but they are still ranked the lowest in prettiest.
okay, so it's not like my self confidence is built up completely in what facebook people think of me, but it's really harsh when they put you in a percentile of your rankings.
I just wanted to say...why did facebook start the whole application thing anyway? I like the interesting ones...like the movie ones, the ones for supporting a sports team, etc...but most look like they were blatantly ripped off from myspace [which they were] and it's just like, okay...so nice job facebook, you aren't creative enough to come out with anything on your own.
But hey, why don't we turn this website into a text version of high school...where people can anonymously judge you.
don't get me wrong...I ran through the 50 or so comparisons, skipping most except for the ones like "better travel companion" or "more likely to do a favor for me," but really..."more popular" or "better body?" stupid stupid.
