Friends? AYK?

When I made an infrequent visit to my cyber site yesterday, I found that I have the potential of an endless number of new "friends". Most of them, I've never seen before, nor do I recognize their names even though some seem vaguely familiar. They appear to be nice people, well most of them. Some are dogs and cats and scenery while others are mere shapes. (The latter mystify me, since putting your name up for one of these cyber sites is about as un-anonymous as neon lights.) My actual list of friends is pathetically short since I make sure, they are or could be friends of the real kind. One of my friends has friends galore, in fact the numbers are so vast that I never could or wanted to, get to the end. But my friend, I thought, must have a lot more talent or charisma or whatever it takes, than I do, to reach out to that many people. When I clicked on one of her friends, suddenly I was onto her friends' friends and when I clicked on her friend's friend's list, I found enough friends to fill a small country. If I were advertising something, there would be no need to hire an advertising agency. The whole world almost, was  right under my index finger. And privacy, if there is such a thing these days, was out the window: mine and a lot of others'. You can learn a lot about someone by perusing their site. Their life style, their interests, their likes and dislikes, their beliefs, their family resemblances, their location, their travels and on and on are easily available.  Putting someone's "stuff" all together, you begin to feel that, yes, indeed, you could be called a kind of "friend" for all that you know about this stranger: where he or she grew up, went to school, their work and their kids and grandkids. Their faces are their proof. But, wait a minute. Some of the faces you see, are not the same ones with the names under them. Masks can be slapped on easily by removing another face and placing it where you want it to go. Good-bye Botox, fillers and face lifts! If you aren't the perfect face and figure, not to worry. You can be all you want to be in a few seconds if you know how to do it on your computer/tablet/phone. Even if you are gorgeous or handsome, you can hype yourself up a bit more, with a little computer photo genius. Kim K is just not all that perfect without her helpers to snick off a little here and add a little there, to matte out some of this and add a glow to that. And she doesn't have to go under the knife. Not yet anyway. The world is no longer un-beautiful, it's becoming perfectly flawless. Or is it? AYK?
