My take on Social networking

Kinky so and so here, and my pondering question..does anybody play those facebook games?? any idea why they are so addicting?
Its basic, you aren't shooting aliens and watching their heads explode, or making Mario jump down a pipe and jump on the heads of Goombas (or in later ones)shoot ice balls and fireballs at them.
You click, post an animal to a feed, add money, repeat
click "race" even tho your not really racing, leave the game running, watch it add fake money
buy more animals, let the money from milking them add up and make more money per "zoo day" or per milking the cows.
With those its CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK POST no commands..yet ive spent more time on those this year then I have on my wii, actually im running zoo world in a window right now to add up "zoo bucks"
super Mario for the wii is a much funner game, IMO, however, i keep finding myself on zoo world every single night racking up zoo bucks and animals and leveling up
even tho, jumping and fetching and icing Goombas is more inciting then CLICK CLICK CLICK o look! a new picture of an Animal! lol
Some people argue that facebook itself is a waste of time, that is a simple opinion statement
Its nice for socialization skills, where its not as socially satisfying as going out to a movie or the mall with friends, and not as active as going on a huge bikeride, its supplement to those that are unemployed, or parenting, or don't have amazing face to face skills (like myself)

Facebook also has good features of reconnecting with old friends, usually that sounds cheesy, but its really good times reminiscing on the past and finding out what everyone is up too these days, and sharing your own stories as well, ive got a lot of people i wouldn't even know that well if it wasnt for facebook and myspace, so i feel fortunate to have this tool to keep in touch with old friends that you otherwise wouldnt be able to talk to or chat with.


Some people get overboard and extreme..but

its not restricting me from anything i dont choose it too, yeah i could be cleaning my room or painting a picture, but im blogging...its my choice, and i may regret it all later, but at the same time, i might have cheered a friend up, or written fresh material to inspire others, or had a good friend and a good conversation,read some great bible scriptures on twitter and facebook, etc!

however, i dont care who you are, you need a life outside this stuff, right now Marley is rolling around on the floor being cute,probably wondering why im punching my fingers on a QWERTY keyboard at a fast WPM speed at almost 3 am, and what i am saying. I should be down there with him rolling on the floor enjoying myself, and i like to pull myself away from the computer (Even tho im guilty of running zoo world to rack up zoo bucks and level up) but i like to start that and get away from the computer and go spend time with people that mean a lot to me. Read a real bible as well instead of just random bits of it on facebook.

So, whats your perspective on social networking? the games, the people, the everything?


here are a few links, why people think its worthwhile or not worthwhile.

so rather you tweet your brains out, facebook whenever the boss isnt looking, or look for datees on match.com, enjoy your time there ,and i hope its a healthy positive effect and not an overly addicting one :)

okay, back to Zoo world !

Honesty..

I am going to be flat out honest here..I have 10 blogs, a few of them are totally inactive, however, I started this tenth blog, because I wanted to have the username
kinkysoandso

kinky so and so

why you ask? well, ive been listening to a lot of Steely Dan lately, ive always had a big respect for Steely Dan, however I obtained the greatest hits cd in a rush due to the old "recent break up music makeover" thing that happens to a lot of us.

So my favorite song on that CD currently is Haitian divorce, really good song about a happy couple, who gets married, then divorces quickly, has a long night at a bar, then she reunites with him and has a baby, but its not his baby..hence the KINKY SO AND SO

No particular reason, I just thought it was a catchy cute name choice, kinky if you may :)
and thought id put it here on blogspot.

my other blogs are different...
one of my favorites is on hold, a very personal blog I ended up giving to HIM, I wrote all about him, and tho i like the name (catch22heinz57) I dont really know what to do with it right now. catch22heinz57.blogspot.com
Another blog, is my daily diggins, going to put an entry in everyday, well, farmtown,farmville, and friends have taken up that time happily for me, plus not having new material everyday, so i put that one down for now.
im starting a new one, an advice column, adviceandinsight.blogspot.com
you have any advice you want, email me lovepirate9@yahoo.com
i can post it anon or not post it at all but you have to let me know what you want :)


my favorite, tho least used..is my

fromthepirateschest.blogspot.com


ooo rah, thats a good one, im needing to do more news stories.
ive got more, whatever my motivation was, went away until I pull them back up again.

So here I am, this is me, I can be a critical thinker at times. I look forward to your feedback and comments in the future or anytime :)
