Everyone and thier mothers

Mother's day has always been a personal favorite of mine when it comes to holidays. Mainly because all I have ever had to do is give my mom a nice card and call my grandmother. But today, I was shocked by the amount of attention this minimally attentive holiday received. Where was all the mother traffic coming from? Facebook. I should have been suspicious earlier this week when people started changing profile pictures. But when my news feed blew up with well wishes, I was shocked by how many "world best mothers" there are. I was also shocked by the fact that, apparently, every body's mother has a Facebook. Now I've been friend requested by a few of my buddies' mothers but I didn't realize how many mothers there were. So, I have made a pledge and I ask my friends to join me. As soon as you have offspring old enough to social network, stop social networking. That simple. After all, isn't it easier to live vicariously?
