it's 2012, after all

Sometimes I find myself sad. Sad, annoyed, even a little mad. What causes this? Well generally it could be anything but at the moment, it's people who do not own iPhone's. iPhone users, check me - you're text messaging a friend and you have the perfect emoticon to replace the word "beer" or express your excitement with an awesome smiley rather than a ":)" but you realize the Send button is not blue and this person has not yet joined 2012. Your text message conversation could have been so much more fun and engaging with the use of graphics but noooooo, Droid is hindering your ability to use your iPhone powers to the best of their ability.

The same thing goes for Twitter. Just yesterday, an "ex" (it wasn't all that serious) followed me on Pinterest. I found this to be hilarious. Pinterest, for most intents and purposes, is a powerful tool for the female gender. Maybe males can find use for it too but I would rather they just stay away and let us have our fun. In light of this development, I turned to Twitter. Post: "Ex just followed me on Pinterest. Could explain why things didn't work out... X X X" Now to the Droid eye, X X X is what you get (and no I'm not saying I found him at an adult book store). BUT to those of us in 2012, you would have seen: Post: "Ex just followed me on Pinterest. Could explain why things didn't work out..." followed by a picture of a watermelon, a cake and a rainbow. Put it together and you have: Fruitcake and a Rainbow.

Ok so in retrospect, it was sort of lame. I'm going to group text on my iPhone now. You probably wouldn't understand.
