Social Not-working


 The carefully crafted message was designed not to exceed the maximum 140 characters.  She planned to post it simultaneously to all of her social networking sites so she would know exactly what time everyone could see it.  That way she would know how long it took everyone to respond.  She opened the dashboard on her computer, copied the text and pasted it into the window. One last check:

Life is just too much for me so I have decided to take an overdose of pills and white wine and watch the sunset for the last time. Goodbye 

Then she hit send.


And the words went unread by all the 263 people who called themselves her friends.
