Modern Monologues

Community, we used to find it at parties, or clubs but more and more we are doing it on our computers

It's easy, you don't have to dress up, do your hair, take a shower.

just sit your stinky butt down in front of your computer.

You can post that younger picture of yourself

and there you are, out on the Network. The NET

What is Networking anyway? A few years ago we all faked we new what that was.

But none of us really knew how to do it.

ENTER FACEBOOK. Facebook came along like 'Networking for Dummies'.

They make it easy. You join up, find and add some friends

and if you don't really have any friends don't worry

I've managed to get a bunch of friends from this helpful side bar Facebook calls "Suggested friends".

Well... isn't that special.

These aren't people you know already.

They're for people like me who don't have many friends;

The Suggested friends column is like 'Friend of the week'

The question is...How did they get to be friend of the week anyway?

Did they pay?

Can I be friend of the week?

Is Facebook already advertising me as ‘Friend of the week'?

Now there's Twitter... just as good a name as Facebook.

Wow.....Someone got paid a lot of money to think this up.

I mean, Facebook makes a bit of sense. Everybody has a face.

But is everybody a Twit? ...*scan the audience* ....Maybe.

But why make a social network out of Twits?

I wonder if Twitter has Suggestions for their... "Twit of the week?"



Some of the people I've met have like 500 people for friends.

Pages and pages of people that have clicked that "Comfirm as a friend" button.

To me that's a stressful decision.

A friend requests comes in from someone I don't really know that well

And I consider...; Do I want them thinking we're friends now?

What if they start calling me up to go for coffee?

But just as stressful, is clicking the ignore button.

Now I've offended some wacko who's gonna be calling me up to ask why

Or worse showing up at my work making a scene.

Yup, it's a dilemma. But a decision has to be made.



I'm not sure why we spend so much time on these networks

It must be the stuff people write about it's soooo exciting.


Excuse me? ...but :

I'm painting the house,

I'm taking a walk with Grandma,

My kid just pooed his diaper... .Come on!

Surely "What's on your mind" is a little deeper than that.

Imagine if you had to write in that box, 'What's on your Mind?'......


The Truth.......

Now that's a Twitting Facetalk I'd like to be a part of......

What's on my Mind? *starts miming typing on keyboard*

I wish my Kids would move out.... My neighbor has a nice ass..... I pee'd the bed last night.

Would you mind if I used your Facebook Monologue for my audition? Or can you recommend anything else that is modern and funny that would go down well with the judges?

Hey Jessica, Yes I plan on videoing some of my stand up comedy soon. I started with writing, had a bunch more stuff on this site. Then wife and friends said I needed to do these pieces myself, so I removed all my others except this one. So yes utube will see my stuff soon. Don
