  • confession

     

    Okay... I have an odd confession to make... when I read a news article about someone - if it mentions something about what was written on the person's facebook... I will attempt to go find it.  I'm generally successful in finding it too. 

    I don't know if this makes me creepy and/or voyeuristic - or just simply a person who is up for the challenge in finding the person like the journalist(s) did.  I think it does say something to the matter that I have too much time on my hands. 

    Apparently, I'm not the only one who does this too... when I visit the pages, it's generally been "hit" by several others before me - typically it is with lots of nasty notes, sometimes a note saying they are praying for someone affected, etc.  I haven't ever written anything on these type of pages - I don't think I ever would either. 

    On a side note - a sad thing I see from tragic events, is internet "trolls" who put up facebook pages portraying themselves to be the perpetrator - feeding off the anger and pain of others.  Who are these people and why must they be so cruel and cold-hearted?
