Netflix has this (relatively) new Friends feature. When I went there the other day, it kindly reminded me, with a happy-looking purple box that I have no friends yet. Totally brightened my day. It would have been worse, but at least there was a link there where I could get a friend if I needed one. Too bad life’s not that easy. Anyway, add me to your friends’ list if you have Netflix.

Lest some of you get the wrong idea… All of the above is mostly sarcastic. I have lots of friends. I just thought the fact that Netflix would blatantly say “No friends yet” on their website was funny.
