A recent story in the Courier Mail caught my eye because it was blasted with the headline “FACEBOOK MURDER”. I was hoping to pick up some pointers on how to kill facebook myself because I have been suckered into signing up and can’t stand the stupid site - the only useful thing is sharing pictures. Basically people need to understand that if I haven’t talked to them in the past year or so and didn’t talk to them during high school/uni there was a very good reason and nothing is about to change.
The article was unfortunately not useful to me in that sense but instead was about a facebook meeting that lead to a murder by an ex-boyfriend of some artist who lived at West End. The funny thing about this article was this particular quote:
Neighbours heard screams during the night but did not investigate because of frequent disturbances in the street.
Sucks to live at West End apparently, at least with all the screaming going on at night.
Despite being apathetic to screaming they do react to murder:
Sarah’s violent death stunned the peace-loving, creative community of West End.
Anyone from Brisbane who is familiar with West End would know to be truly accurate that sentence should have the words ‘peace-loving’ substituted with ‘pot-smoking’ and the word ‘creative’ substituted with… well… ‘pot-smoking’.
Frighteningly one of the murdered girl’s friend Ms Walker “was particularly shocked after the murder of another close friend, Kunal Singh, just five years ago.“ Here’s a tip to Ms Walker’s other friends - delete her from Facebook immediately. And while you are at it delete your own account and help bring down Facebook from the inside!!

Anyone else confused about the second header on this ninemsn news website article? It takes a couple of reads just to figure out if they have used a random word generator or not.
