20% of Divorces Caused By Facebook

Monday, March 8th, 2010

David is no longer listed as

In a blatant bit of stolen news, I was reading my latest issue of geeky magazine WIRED (it’s also covers it here too) and it said that in a recent study of 5000 divorce papers around 20% of them cite Facebook as a factor of the divorce. How insane is that? That’s 1 in 5…

I’m going to go out on a limb and guess it has something to do with people talking to their exs and being found out by a friend who then tells their friend what is going on or it’s because a girlfriend or boyfriend has been snooping around their significant others page, which is never good as it obviously shows that they don’t trust their spouse and that being found out is never good. Especially when they’re innocent.

Do people really care about Facebook that much? It was originally a fun place to find and keep in contact with your friends and family and now it’s a tool to keep tabs on people anonymously.

I recommend that if anyone reading this has contemplated deleting their Facebook page DO IT NOW! Send a message to all the people you want to keep in contact with to give them your email address and delete that page! You will feel cleansed and can confidently say “I don’t have a Facebook page so don’t try and add me!”

Ep#26: The Missing Live Show

Saturday, January 16th, 2010
 
icon for podpress  Standard Podcast [60:00m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

In this hour long extended (for better or worse?) episode me and Andrew discuss Susan Boyle’s latest breakdown with a mop, how Xboxes are like really shit, how everyone should delete their Facebook (help here) and the wonder that is Justin Bieber and the Jonas Brothers.

Music In This Episode

  • Leah Randazzo – “All I Need In You”
  • Nyco – “Out Of My Head”
  • Azoora – “Restless at the Hacienda”
  • Moot – “Dancing Nowhere”
  • The Rest – “Atlantis, Typhoon, Oh Our Savior, Starving Bears! Dance! Dance!”

This is an extended episode which is just the hour long radio show that should have been live but due to technical difficulties wasn’t possible. We recorded and then decided that we’ll just podcast the whole thing. If you want us to do this more, we will but if you don’t leave a comment and we’ll go back to editing the podcast down. I’ll take it as no comments will mean that no one cares if the show is edited.
