We’ve all misheard a song lyric at one time or another, and probably sung it loudly in the company of others, often with hilarious (or embarassing) results.

In Episode 27, we explore the topic of death as it relates to the world of Facebook and other social media, as we ask the Question – If one of your Facebook friends dies, when (if ever) is it okay to “unfriend” them?

formats
Published on March 3, 2013, by in Uncategorized.

In Episode 25, we look back at our last 24 episodes, and give you (and ourselves) the opportunity to say the things about previous Questions that might have been missed the first time round. We also somehow end up discussing some Questions that we haven’t even asked yet.

Next week, we’re discussing internet memes by asking the Question – Why do we love memes, until we hate them? I mean, we all know that we loved Gangam Style, but got sick of it because we listened to it about a billion times a day, and now the thought of a Korean man in a tuxedo makes us cringe. So why do we do this to ourselves, over and over again, with every new meme that pops up?
