i've decided to start a series of short brain farts called "tales from the bong". these are those ADD thoughts that synapse through my head that are only really part of my memory for maybe 20 minutes.
today's thought is about social media. it can be so annoying at times when people misuse it as a diary or an outlet to post countless duckface selfies. however, when you're stuck it's a really good tool to abuse to see how if there are any potential friends that can help bail you out. i know this sounds so "OBVS!", but for some reason today i'm really pumped about social media.
there was that time when i dropped my car keys down the elevator shaft one morning. and then there's this time when i got into a car accident. both incidents were fucking tragic at the time (and now i'm realizing that maybe i should just not own a car). both times i put my plea through on facebook. and both times, the same friend came through to help me. what are the chances that the friend who is an elevator repair man also has a journeyman's ticket in auto mechanics? fist pump.
so thank you, social media, for coming to the rescue. it's almost worth looking at all the bathroom selfies in exchange for help during times like these.
