So, the other day I walk into Chipotle with a friend of mine. As I always do when I enter a building I scan the place to get an idea of who's in there and what's going on. Since this was technically after the lunch rush, there weren't a lot of people in the restaurant. 

However, over at the a table in the far left corner is a woman who looks familiar. I took a longer look and, ye it is, it's my ex-girlfriend. Not a recent ex, but one from a few years ago. 

We split up after about 8 months of dating when she started badgering me about getting married. After 8 months? Really?

I'd seen her there and there over the years, but haven't seen her here or there in about three years. To be honest, I thought she moved away, but Denver's a big enough area and we didn't tend to run in the same circles anyway, so it wasn't weird not seeing her.

And yet, there she was. When we dated she looked a lot like Tea Leoni (http://www.tvweek.com/blogs/tvbizwire/tea%20leoni.jpg) but now she looked a little more worse for wear. 

My friend, whom I was having lunch with, had met my ex once years ago and even commented how bad she looked now. She looked at me and said, "You have nothing to worry about. You're all tan and buff."

Okay, maybe not as trim as I was when I dated my ex, but I have to admit, the years have been much more kind to me.

Speaking of which, did you know Ghostbusters was 30 years old now? Damn!

So, I asked Andrew Tamm, who filled my Stream with a hundred (sarcasm there) animated gifs and cat pictures to remove me from whatever Circle he has me in where he posts the animated gifs and cat pictures. It was either that or unfollow him and I didn't see any reason to unfollow him. Me asking https://plus.google.com/112885755521259735422/posts/78dwnvvgh4p <==edited to add the correct link Then he plusses me onto Public posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/EuuR1tnU3vJ https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/8r6Grcm2Jpj https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/74PgSu6iL2s Then one of his friends (or Circlers) starts plussing me into posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/107120198886093172821/posts/gRW9JhWLs5T Don't get me wrong, I'm all about sarcasm and messing with people, but this seems sort of childish to me.

I'm shutting down Google+ for the night and quite possibly for the weekend. Why? This stupid #gifwars thing people are so proud of. This Adam Black guy said he doesn't like gifs and now everyone is mass trolling him. Having been mass trolled like this I can relate to him easily enough. Have an opinion and the collective might of Google+'s lower class denizens jump on a bandwagon. I just saw a post where someone wanted to jump on board and had to get clarification she was tagging the proper Adam Black. She wasn't even connected to him ! Nor was she a part of the original discussion. She just wanted to follow the herd. When I called her out of it she claimed, "one gif doesn't make a troll." Perhaps not, but she's contributing to a larger troll effort. One straw doesn't break the camel's back, but thousands will. So, tonight, Google+ disgusts me. It probably will tomorrow as well. And possibly Sunday. I gave up Google+ for two months this spring
