I can really relate to today's XKCD. That is so me. Except for the imminent Death Star destroying, obviously. (Except for Reddit and CNN and Facebook, really, but there are always other sites for the same effect.)

I'm surprised TV Tropes isn't featuring in this. Ah, TV Tropes, thou brightener of many a boring work day! Of course, these days I rather tend to get stuck on pages like Familienplanung.de or Kindergesundheit-info instead. OH GODS I'M GROWING OLD AND CONSERVATIVE ~~~ but at least I'm doing it online...

Of course, what does that mean, these days? Not long ago my grandmother asked me whether I, too, thought she needed "a Facebook". Apparently several of her friends have been pestering her to get one. Brave new world.
