Conundrum - Facebook TV likes

I am a fan of many shows and I marked them all down on Facebook (henceforth referred to as "fb" so I can bring in the young audience - side note: Do kids read? Do they still even learn to read? We'll save these and other more pressing matters for future posts - second note: my mother-in-law refers to Facebook as SpaceShip, I find this hilarious.). Indicating the TV shows I like serves a couple of purposes:

1) All of my friends can readily see how cool I am that I watch "Breaking Bad" and "How to Make it in America." Basically I put a bunch of shows on there that I may or may not watch, but want people to think I watch, so they will think I am cool. I am at the mercy of what other people think.

2) For shows I do actually watch, when the new season is about to begin they post an announcement and I see it on my news feed which reminds me to record/watch it, buy popcorn, and make sure I am not in the middle of something (pooping) at 9PM.

Having all these likes of TV shows on fb presents a problem though. Most shows post crap like every god damn day. Most of the time I just skip those posts on my news feed, but it is beginning to bother me and I'd rather not see all of these posts. I know I could hide all the posts of "Dexter" but then how the hell am I supposed to remember that a new season is about to premier? This f-ing blows.

Monetized

Ok two things:

1) I am going to try and start writing posts again. Not everyday or even every other day, that is way too hard, so about once I week I will try and come up with something good and post it here. As usual my posts will be about anything and everything. Although I may still talk about my love of blue steel (my ride), which I still have and love. Note to self: take her out for a spin along the water and enjoy the sunshine.

I find that writing can be cathartic and I feel like I am better at expressing myself with the written word rather than the verbal. Even if my expression is about horse poop or apple juice.

2) I've sold out. I figure I am still getting hits on this even though I've only posted once since November of 2007. Mostly I get weird comments on my most read articles from people trying to sell crap. I used to delete these comments but I haven't for a while so you can check them out. Anywho, I had fairly recently signed up for Adsense for my youtube account because one of my videos was receiving a decent number of hits. I did discover I couldn't monetize that video because of the copyrighted song that is playing. Oh well. So I finally decided I might as well monetize this bad boy of a blog. Now I know, I've sold out. I'm just trying to get paid and all of that. That is partially true. But at the same time I try and look at it as an additional incentive to start writing again. We'll see if it works. Probably not, but you might want to check back again in a week or so and see if I've posted again.
