    This is a news brief. How does it compare to ours? What do you think about the humor in this article--is there actual news underneath? Should this be labeled as news?

    This kind of depressed me but also simultaneously motivated me. But- get this- I'm still technically starting high school, being a freshman, so… does that not count as a "new exciting stage"? I'm not really sure what to make of this, really. I don't see any news. Just some humor that isn't actually funny.

    I think that this is an interesting piece. What I immediately thought of when I read it was how social networking makes it seem as though everyone is having a more fulfilling/fun/exciting life than you are, and in reality than they actually are. It seems as though this article is humorously preying on that human fear.
