Apparently you think that this kind of pressure from my Mom, my Grandparents and the rest of the stupid world is not enough. No, apparently I need facebook to lean on me every time I log in (which is <em>not<\/em> 17,462 times a day while at work. I swear).<\/p>\n<p>You know what, facebook? I think that you&#8217;re being unnecessarily pushy. It&#8217;s not that either of us is ashamed to ask. The answer to that particular question is a foregone conclusion. No, facebook, it&#8217;s a matter of finances. Or lack thereof. Perhaps you don&#8217;t understand, as you are raking in the ad revenue hand over fist. Ironically, from the same stupid ads that are currently taunting me.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike you, facebook, I don&#8217;t go to sleep on a giant pile of money every night. And all of the extra cash that we <em>do<\/em> have goes towards fixing the 8,345,962 things that are currently wrong with our house. The previous owners&#8230; they didn&#8217;t like to finish projects. Or measure things. Or insulate outside facing walls. Or do anything by building code. So, we don&#8217;t have any extra cash to pay for an open bar and beef or chicken for all of our friends and family.<\/p>\n<p>So, I&#8217;m asking you nicely, facebook, to back the fuck off. Lest I start giving you the same answer that I give to everyone else&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>WHEN YOU STOP ASKING!!!<\/p>\n<p>Phew.<\/p>\n<p>Ahem.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m better now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ok, facebook, I get it.
