at last he'd had enough

At least I have never got one too many messages from 'friends' (=old highschool class mates whose names I wouldn't remember did they not show up on the screen) on Facebook begging me to look at their smarmy engagement/ wedding/ honeymoon/ baby photos, with 'finally, the last couple marries' or something to the same smug effect to accompany the photos - and I, the recipient, am very much single. This has gone on for the entire week that I've been on Facebook, and I snap.

I forward the syrupy message to another single friend, asking her to take bets with me as to which of the three couples will divorce first. More importantly, I make sure that all six people in those three couples also receive the message, as if by accident (the 'reply all' syndrome - we've all done it once).

At least I've never done that. But I admire the person that did.
