An App for THAT?


Well, well, well. REAL NEWS has returned to the world today! In the U.S., we're facing this mess while the UN is telling Israel that their settlements are illegal – yep. That's what the UN is saying RIGHT HERE. AND, the U.S. economy is "shrinking" and China has hacked into The New York Times' computers! South Korea is testing missiles, letting North Korea know not to Mess With Them!

Oh No! The Sky Is Falling! The End Is Near Once Again – only this time in a non-biblical way. Never fear, my friends. There are always other subjects we can focus our attention on to cure ourselves of The Daily Angst. The latest diversion from High Blood Pressure, Anxiety Attacks & Homicidal Tendencies can be found via the Internet, of course. This time in the form of a new App For Facebook that's all about sex! Yes! Sex! It sells! READ THIS!

What does this mean? Cyber sex? In-Person sex? Both? Now Facebook, although not the original creators of The Sex App, will become the Go To Website for quickies, leaving Craig's List in the dust. (They already had to shut down the steamier, sleazier elements of their "Personals" section after "The Craig's List Killer" ruined all the fun.)

Facebook's identity is changing by the day. It has been shifting into corporate-oriented directions, causing freak-outs among many users when notifications sent by non-Facebook-based sources inform us that unless we change our Privacy Settings almost every month all of our info will be sold, used, abused… With the new app now we can all have an orgy of sorts with "Friends" we may or may not know in Real Life! Can you imagine signing-up to be "matched" with your FB Friends? I would think all of us know how to handle hookups with people we already have some form of contact with on our own. Such as a Personal Message or something?  I don't need to "find out" who wants to know me better through an App! Huff! 

I will give The Creators of the concept credit for knowing what sells and where to sell it. I simply don't know who will be brave enough to play with the New Way To Find A F-K Buddy! Possibly teens of Legal Age? And/or Grandpa needing to find a use for his Blue Pills? 'Tis true. The Very Much Older Generation is rife with Gratuitous Sexual Escapades, and thus are falling victim to an inordinate amount of ER visits to soothe those unfortunate side-effects of sexing without protection.

I know. You don't want to imagine any of the above if you want to hold on to your lunch/dinner/snack/breakfast. Just erase that image. (But it's true, nonetheless.)

Meanwhile, the earth still turns; more strange App's are in the making, and if you decide that you want to fly to another country for a hookup with a "matched" FB "Friend" – then, Have At It!

I'm off to begin what remains of my day by dealing with never-ending housework. Why doesn't someone create an App For That?

See you tomorrow!
