...man, I wish the ignore function worked in real life. People'd just be moving their mouths and I'd have to click on that button on their upper right if I wanted to hear what they were saying....

o rly?

what a surprise!

but really. yeah. I used to have no choice really for social interaction due to being locked in the house most of the time. But now I actually go out and see the sun and socialize, maybe a little too much. Then at work I'm always online so I goof off :(
