The final piece I wanted to preserve from the upcoming Facepocalypse was a meme known as the “3s of Me.” The original one landing my way had a lot of “not applicables”, perhaps being written for someone with zero likelihood of shuttling a mini-van-ful of kids to ballet. I ignored it. Then, John Chawner posted his and took some liberties. Tagged, and amused, I was obliged.
(Since posting this, Amazon Prime has offered an increasing variety of old TV shows free, so I’ve seen half a season of Lost. Also, about three months (and countless visits) after posting, I found the geocache Over The Top.)
According to Facebook’s Terms of Service, I have to post one of these introspective things at least once a year. It’s down there on subsection 23, canto VII, dangling participle three. So you don’t get caught out of compliance, too, click on the `TMI‘ tab on your profile page, paste these instructions in the body of the note, re-type your 3’s of Me, then throw your computer across the room because another urgent Adobe Flash security update was issued while you were installing the previous Windows Tuesday superpatch – reboot now or in five minutes.
If I tagged you, then you are “it.” I don’t know what that means, so you better ask a seven year-old.
