Who cares about the 500 channels on the TV or the 1000 friends on Facebook if I'm sitting home alone on a Saturday night wondering where all the action is.

She wanted to fill up her IM and Facebook with lots of friends so she'd be "popular"....not that many of those folks on her list even knew her. I asked her what she thought "popular" meant; what made kids popular and she said "ya know...the ones with 100's of friends on IM and MySPace, and ya' know, the mean girls like in that movie" I told her I thought it popular meant not only well known but also well liked.... You can have 1000 friends on myspace but that doesn't mean you're very nice or very well liked. SO, if you have 50 friends who really like you (or 50 channels that really provide good entertainment) vs 1000s that provide nothing....which one is more popular??
