Anyone who would like to write an article about how lame Facebook and Twitter are, if you write an article that starts like this I will consider you a jerk and the rest of your article will be tainted:
Notice to my friends: I love you all dearly.

Its most ironic since they’re the ones complaining about people that think they’re “important” enough to have news posted about them in the first place.
At least they called in an authority on the subject:
