Totally not referring to you! You’ve never been one to bicker over status updates. Actually, the person I am referring to is a very good friend but I think Facebook can be a dysfunctional way of communicating. It seems like you are communicating but you are not - not really.
Friend and I need to step back and reflect and then meet up and discuss as friends and not “friendsters”.
Reminds me of one of our guest haiku’ers — Jen. She wrote a series of Facebook friend haiku:

And then the only other thing I have to say is that I really really really hope this haiku is not referring to me! : )
