Facebook’s new layout sucks

And here’s why:

ONE. PRO-TIP: Don’t mess around with people’s surfing habits, man – adapt to them. Each column is now so important to look at when only the biggest one should be. The right column should have decent info that doesn’t change much, and now it’s always changing… This has to be why people are calling it “cluttered” on the feedback pages. By cramming too much on one page you’re overwhelming the visitor. Also – that right column looks like a collection of ads, so people aren’t gonna want to look there anyway.

TWO. There’s no real difference between people making little “what’s on your mind?” statements to wall-to-wall posts, etc anymore. There should be. It makes it more interesting to scroll through, and lets me know earlier whether I want to skip it or not.

THREE. Tahoma in that size is super annoying with such a small space. Actually Tahoma is really ugly unless it’s 11px with a 1px letter-spacing, but even then should be used sparingly (of course~).

Last layout was better, although this one does use more space. It was still cluttered then though, and honestly – if I didn’t want to stay in contact with my friends, I wouldn’t be using Facebook at all. Gahhh.

This is a lazier version of /fa/

So there are things I know about omg fashioonn that others don’t. It’s even worse that it’s me who knows it – there’s a reason there aren’t photos of how OMG TRENDY I am on here (cos I’m not lol). Never mind it’s because I don’t want people knowing where I am on the internet. It’s bad enough someone I’ve been avoiding since the end of 2006 is following me on Twitter – stop stalking me, kthx.

…Anyway. Watch me put off law readings.

1. If you’re wearing a green top, and then think “OH HEY, I’LL WEAR GIANT GREEN EARRINGS”, you’re doing it wrong. Why are you so matchy-matchy?
2. Don’t have more than one piercing in each ear, unless you otherwise dress like you’re into scaring people with how dark and edgy you are.
3. Tights: still not pants. They still forget this in Dunedin.
4. Leggings: wear them like tights. The top you’re wearing with them should come down to mid-thigh at least (as in, I don’t want to see your ass in them..). Also, “leather” leggings are hideous.
5. I don’t like boys wearing 80s style hoodies, print tees and bright baseball hats.

I get a lot of time to watch people. Mostly I’m looking for ideas of how to save my own pathetic style, but it’s the horrific things that stick with me…

but here are things i like seeing

1. Paisley and argyle. Though not together.
2. Scarves.
3. Boys in scarves. They’re cuuuuute, and I’m not sure why. It’s even better when they’re wearing argyle, but boys in scarves and argyle are a myth, and for this reason alone I will never find true love.
4. Grey and black striped tops. Also outfits that are strictly grey and black.
5. Strangely enough I don’t like when boys have one ear pierced, but then when both ears are pierced I don’t mind. They can also get away with more piercings than girls. Check out my double standards. Ooh yeah.
6. Super dark brown, long, straight hair. Pretty much, the opposite of my hair. Woe.
7. Suede boots are hot, especially if they’re grey. I want them. I want them so bad.
8. Tights that come in patterns! As are turquoise leggings in an otherwise black outfit – other colours have failed to impress me.

Exclusive revelation on Rachel Bilson!

Rachel Bilson is old. As in, she’s so old she was born in 1981. How does someone born in that era (which was FOREVER ago) manage to look so adorable?

Here are some other people who were born in 1981. Except they’re not even real people. Like Rachel Bilson, sweet little pixie that she is, they are fabulous celebrities with access to the fountain of youth and miscellaneous other products L’Oreal isn’t gonna sell to us, the masses. Or maybe they would, except they’d charge like, $1000 for a free sample.

Yeah you heard me. But anyway: Justin Timberlake, Jamelia, Elijah Wood, Paris Hilton, Jennifer Hudson, Serena Williams, Britney Spears…

As extravagant as their beauty regimes are likely to be, are these 27 year olds cute? Do they look like they could be mistaken for a 20 year old? Nay! Glamourous celebrities that they are, Rachel Bilson pwns them all, and I’m pretty gutted. Even a little outraged. I forget why, because suddenly I’m convinced makeup companies are holding out on me (dammit, I want eternal youth!). Still, I have such a girl-crush on her, and now the woman is eight years older than me. There is no hope for us.
