Ah, de gode, gamle dage. Det var en simplere tid, det var en bedre tid. Men så kom Facebook og ødelagde alt og nu holder frygten for at gå glip os vågen om natten i smartphonens skær.
Det virale hashtag #BeforeFacebookI tager temperaturen på onlinehordernes følelser om livet før Facebook. De fleste Twitter-komikere genkalder med en tyk ironisk distance, hvordan alting var sværere dengang: At stalke eks’er, at se hvordan folkeskolevenner klarer sig og at dele mad/baby/dyre-billeder.
Vi har samlet 10 af de bedste her. Der bliver taget tykt pis på:
1. Like-knappen
#BeforeFacebookI had to carry little stickers with the word “like” on them to physically place on my friends’ cats and babies. @midnight

#BeforeFacebookI thought the only places you checked into we’re hotels, rehab, or a mental health facility. @midnight
