Maybe we are all exhibitionists, or even worse, masochists. Sending out these intimate details, to varying degrees, for at least 25 people, maybe sometimes more to read. What possesses us? Many people may find this read uncomfortable, and even further, find the task of sending out their own fifteen details to 25 people, completely unfathomable. So is there something different about those of us who decide to share, something similar in eachother, something unfulfilled and somehow untouchable to ourselves? What makes us send those desperate and individual details out? And who sends them? Individuals looking to make connections with new and interesting people? Or individuals who feel like, somehow in the past, they have been withdrawn? Or, those who always look for a way to some how say how important they are? A million different ways to perceive the ways we answer the task of the Facebook chain letter to put our 25 facts out on the line. Especially remember, it is not just the 25 people you tag who have access to your details, but anyone who you have befriended on facebook will get notice of your "note" and be able to read the details you share. Are you truthful? Is it who you are now, or someone you used to be?

Well, the similarities between people who do this is they like chain letters, and most of them don't even realize it, but that's what this blog meme crud is.
I've removed myself from the tags of chain notes without reading them and will not do the x number of random things meme let alone tag anyone else.
If I did do it, it would be anything but random. More like 1. I get annoyed by chain letters. 2. I detest chain letters. 3. I can't stand chain letters. 4. I want to get tagged in a real note, not a chain note. etc. you get the idea.
