Last night, I announced that I’m leaving Facebook in two weeks (the only reason for the delay is to give everyone a chance to get my contact information). I know there are a lot of people who are going to ask, “Why? How can a web developer like yourself not use Facebook?” This post will attempt to answer that question.

This is my blog, where I post stuff about stuff that’s happening in my life.
Go Home, Facebook… You’re drunk.
I saw this on my Facebook News Feed today.
That does not make any sense and doesn’t look like a normal George Takei post. So I clicked and got this…
Needless to say, Facebook is drunk.
I Have My Love of Legend of Zelda To Thank For This
Would you believe I have my love of Zelda and the Olympics – that I didn’t even watch or pay attention to – to thank for finding to awesome independent musicians? Because it’s true.

Link: Today in EPIC FAILS: Shell
So some marketing GENIUS came up with the idea for the denizens of the internet to come up with their next ad campaign. This gallery of hilarious ads is the result.
Check it quick or they may pull it down.
EDIT: Not a real site, but funny nonetheless.

Check out my tumblr, everyone!
Link: What My Crazy Friend Did For Stroke Awareness Month
Okay, so she didn’t do it for Stroke Awareness Month, but it is kind of ironic.
Thankfully, she is doing very well, thanks to the quick thinking & action of her husband, the skills of all of her doctors, and the incredible outpouring of prayer and support from across the globe.
We’re all glad you are alive, doing much better and… have been able to bring us your humor via tweets within 12 hours of brain surgery.
Super Smash Bros Brawl: Creepy Edition
I just found this online and decided to share the fun. Enjoy.

Autism Awareness
For those who don’t know. Today is Autism Awareness Day. April is also Autism Awareness Month. This is kind of a big deal for me, since my son is autistic.
So The *SoC’s Domain has gone blue for the month.
You can expect a couple Autism related posts this month.

Do NOT Want!
1. Try wine for the first time in a video.
2. Convert video to gif.
3. ???
4. Profit!
Can you tell that SoC loves his wine? 
UPDATE:
[CynicSoC: Ashley made this from the same video. Have some more laughs at SoC’s expense. ]
Muppets vs. Fox News
For those who missed the video several months ago, Fox News accused the Muppets of brainwashing kids into hating big oil. Here’s the proof. (Honestly, if this doesn’t make you question the minds behind Fox News, I’m not sure what would.)
A couple days ago, we got a response from Kermit and Miss Piggy on that very subject.
The video cannot be shown at the moment. Please try again later.
Very well said, Miss Piggy. Very well said indeed.Another Sad Day…
Wednesday night, we got a call. It was Ashley’s mom and she was very upset, with good reason.
Her sister, Ashley’s aunt, died late that night.
Let me just reiterate my feelings on losing loved ones to death like this: It sucks.
The past two days have been full of sadness for us. @ashleynfarmer‘s aunt died late Wednesday night. #deathsucks @TheSoCs
If I’m not posting for a few days, that’s why.
The SOPA Protest Worked
Apparently, congress took note of the protest yesterday. Today, ProPublica posted this encouraging image.
SOPA & PIPA: Kill Them Dead! [UPDATED]
Some of you might have noticed that the site was dark yesterday in protest of SOPA and PIPA. Others may have noticed that my avatars on Facebook and Google+ changed to a </SOPA> tag. Still others may have been inundated with the many, many “blocked tweets” from us *SoCs.
The point is we want to kill the SOPA and PIPA bills before they can become law.

The Day the LOLcats Died.
At first I was serious.
Then I lol’d at this.
Link: WebSoC Wednesdays: Dr. McNinja
This is a web comic that I accidentally found one day while surfing the world wide interwebz. It’s a pretty awesome comic and the artist has also worked on some Deadpool comics. Anyway, give it a read (I suggest starting from the beginning, instead of jumping into the current arc) and I’m sure you won’t be disappointed.
Thank You Tuesdays: Kitsap Community Resources
This week, I would like to thank Kitsap Community Resources. They have helped me out in a lot of ways and without them, I would probably not be able to say that I will be leaving the “unemployed” demographic.
