LOOK WHO JOINED FACEBOOK

With the exception of when you work as Batman’s butler and he gets himself into more hot water than he can handle, there really isn’t anyone in this world who doesn’t like to say “I told you so.” I find the funniest “I told you so” moment comes when a celebrity says that you will never catch them doing such and such and then it happens. For example, when Lindsay Lohan wasn’t never going to turn into one of those kids stars who becomes the stereotypical problem adult or when an actor who is in it for the love of the craft does a super hero movie without following it up with something that indies the soul clean.

My favorite moment is when you hear how so and so will never join (insert social media site here) because it basically starts the countdown to when that becomes a lie. It happened with David Cook and twitter but most recently the culprit was director Terry Gilliam. After launching his personal website he said how he wasn’t never getting a Facebook account but was entering the digital age with the site. Well look what appeared yesterday!

Terry Gilliam

Followed by a personal note, this morning

Terry Gilliam
DEAR FACEBOOKEES,
WELCOME TO MY NEW INCARNATION.. THIS NEW BREACH IN MY SECURITY. I WILL OCCASIONALLY CHECK IN TO SEE THAT YOU ARE ALL WELL AND HAPPY. I MIGHT EVEN ANSWER THE ODD QUESTION.. ODD BEING THE OPERATIVE WORD. BUT, MORE THAN LIKELY I'LL JUST SIT QUIETLY IN THE DARK TRYING TO PROTECT MY VULNERABLE AND EASILY INFLUENCED BRAIN FROM YOUR THOUGHTS, OPINIONS, AND SUGGESTIONS. THIS SITE IS DESIGNED TO INFLUENCE YOU AND NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND.
MY TEAM OF ELVES WILL KEEP YOU INFORMED OF MY EVERY MOVE. THEY WILL LET YOU KNOW SECRETS UNAVAILABLE TO THE REST OF THE WORLD. THEY WILL ENCOURAGE YOU TO HELP ME IN MY DESPERATE ATTEMPTS TO FIND A JOB. THEY WILL REWARD YOU FOR YOUR UNSWERVING LOYALTY.
JUST REMEMBER, ONE OF THOSE ELVES MAY BE ME. SO BE NICE.
YOURS NOW AND IN THE FUTURE,
TG
