When  a phone line is disconnected you get this recorded message that says something about the party you are trying to reach no longer being at this number-I remember the one I used to hear when I was a kid was creepy sounding- and other people thought so too because that device turned up a lot in horror stories. But it’s a practical thing and it’s necessary.

Do you know what’s a shame?

Facebook doesn’t have  something like that.

A few years ago and because it’s campaign season again- some of my FORMER Facebook friends trolled my friend list for fundraising contacts and invited my dead friends to their political events. When I realized I had been trolled I went into malice mode and didn’t tell them they were inviting dead people to an event and not only would they not be getting any money from them,  the candidate wasn’t going to get a vote from them either.

What I have been seeing recently are the people who leave birthday greetings  for dead people- and it would appear that they don’t know the person they’re leaving those greetings for are dead- they are deceased, they are no longer with us-

because they are leaving notes that say things like, ” Have a Great Day!” and ” See you soon!”

I’ll be honest…

The first word that pops into my mind when I saw that is

 funny-

 but I guess the reality of it is that seeing something like that is creepy.

Isn’t it?
