Lying in Facebook's Bed



A recent study has revealed that Facebook is the cause of 20% of all divorces. Shocking? Not really. Think about all the "friends" you have on Facebook. Think about your communication habits. Then compare those to your real-life contacts and communications. The number of online temptations is staggering -- and much more prevalent than real-life temptations. Plus with personal passwords, privacy settings, and private messaging, it's easier than ever to hide your "relationships" from your significant other.

Currently, less than half (44%) of the people on Facebook are listed as being in some sort of committed relationship. And only 29% are listed as "married." The actual U.S. census numbers report a much higher percentage of the population (49.7%) is married. And it's not like Facebook isn't a significant sample size (51% of Americans are on Facebook = 150 million).

So what does that mean? Americans are lying in Facebook's bed.

Lying on Dr. Twitter's Couch



At a quick glance there are currently 7 tweets out of my 50 most recent that is either a pity-begging complaint about one's life or hidden stab at an unnamed "friend."

Why is it people insist on lying on this social couch and spilling their guts to an audience of strangers who don't care? Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Just as we don't care what you ate for dinner or what time you woke up this morning, we also do not care that your boyfriend is a douche and your girlfriend is a slut. I know you are reaching for someone or something to pity you. I understand you're upset and lonely. But pick up the phone and call your family or text your friend.

And posting something for the sole purpose of making your ex jealous is awfully immature. Not there's anything wrong with that.

Must Haves for Football Season

It’s mid September. Leaves are changing colors. The weather is getting colder. Another school year has started. And O.J. is finally going to jail (that is kind of like the ultimate make-up call in sports history). But September also brings another football season. And for many men in America, that means couch potato season. And for a lot of women, that means boredom. But it doesn’t have to be that way. So take the advice of one of the greatest characters in movie history, “quid pro quo.” Something for something. A favor for a favor. Give and take. If you just started dating, good luck! No, just kidding, but it will take a little more effort than it will for those couples who have been together long enough to thank the heavens for the plasma screen male babysitter. So while the men are pounding beers and feasting on cheesy poofs, don’t volunteer to be the miserable maid, instead try one of these great ideas. And make sure you buy some of these must-haves:

Top 5 Showmances in Reality TV History

Here are some of the best showmances in reality television history:

1. Rob Mariano and Amber Brkich (Survivor All-Stars) - Rob and Amber fell in love during the filming of All Stars. Many of us - myself included - thought that this was just another one of Rob's dastardly deeds. However, it seems that Rob really fell hard for Ms. Brkich.
2. Nick Warnock and Amy Henry (The Apprentice) - It was kinda cute watching two eggheads in love. Well, sort of. Nick and Amy certainly held each other in high regard. They flirted, and it showed. So much so that The Donald picked up on it in the boardroom.
3. Brigitte Nielsen and Public Enemy's Flavor Flav (Surreal Life) - Gitte and Foofie as they called each other sure made a striking - and surprising - couple. They seemed to give the rest of us hope that any two people could find each other. VH-1 immediately figured out the marketability these two had. That's when Strange Love was born. Strange Love was a look at the relationship of Flavor Flav and Brigitte Nielsen despite some serious complications, such as her engagement to Mattia Dessi. In the end, Gitte broke Flav's heart when she returned to Mattia.
4. Nick Starcevic and Daniele Donato (Big Brother 8) - Nick has admitted he is in "total like" with Daniele. They officially kissed on a live internet feed. And even though Daniele HAS a boy friend... she still kissed Nick... Nick even went to NY to see Daniele on "The Power of 10" and wrote her a letter when she won HOH.
5. Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt (The Hills) - Heidi and Spencer started dating on the MTV show and never looked back... despite a hundred reasons to do so. Heidi's former best friend LC hated Spencer; Spencer comes across as a man-whore; Spencer's best friend Brody is no more; Heidi's parents worry about the young engagement; Spencer is an idiot who thinks graffiti on the living room wall next to arcade games is a mature thing; etc etc etc.
