Attention: Facebook Addicts

Okay, I get it. You feel the need to be sitting in class next to me on your macbook leaving your friend Suzy or whatever comments to tell her how nice her hair looks in that picture. Can you please at least wait until the teacher is done covering what is going to be on the next exam, or do you honestly not give a crap enough to stop distracting other people with your obnoxiously loud manicured nails click along the keyboard. I just don't understand the need to constantly be checking Facebook to see what your friends are doing, wait until you're out of class pick up a damn phone and call them.

Even MSNBC agrees with me (on something)

Does the "F" in Facebook stand for an "F" in school? A new study says that college students who are on Facebook while studying or doing homework wind up getting 20 percent lower grades than students who don't have the social networking site in visual range, or even running in the background on their computers or mobile phones.
Quoted from Suzanne Choney, msnbc.com

20%. That's just the ones glancing at facebook while studying...

So if the people on facebook while doing homework and studying are doing terrible, what about that orange spray-tanned idiot with the bump-it in her hair hammering away at the keyboard while the professor is trying to lecture? Oh and gum chomper, you're annoying too - please keep it in your damn mouth.
