Refression

Everyone has a favorite button, right? Some love 'undo', others 'paste', some like 'quit', others 'reboot'... lots of options! I have one too.

*refresh*

Or at least you'd think that's my personal favorite. Why? Because I feel the need to

*refresh*

my Facebook profile, hoping for new notifications;

*refresh*

my e-mail, looking for new messages;

*refresh*

Twitter to get the latest update about Calvin Harris's eating habits;

*refresh*

Facebook again... notifications, please...

*refresh*

Oh look, an e-mail! Damn, spam.

*refresh*

Are you sure I've had no new notifications in the past 16 seconds?!

*refresh*
*refresh*
*refresh*
*refreshing mineral water*
*what?*
*refresh*

...aaaaand eventually, total braindeath.

*refresh*

I'm telling you, it's addicting! It's beyond my control! It gives me hope, excitement, then disappointment... It's something new every time! It's so refreshing!

So, what's your button obsession? (Let me guess, "Escape! F1! Get me outta this website right now!")

NOTE ON NOTIFICATIONS:
Now seriously, how many of you eagerly await the little red pop-up notifications on Facebook? They're the cutest little things, right? Too bad most of them are spam... something about pointless quizzes, hatching eggs, friendship battles, mafia wars, friend comparisons, virtual puppies, hugs, kisses, headbutts, and so on... I do love notifications oh so much. But the best feeling was the day I re-activated my Facebook account after it was frozen for over a month; I had 97 precious notifications! :D About 97% of them were total spam. But whatever, I wanted to print a screen grab and show people how popular I am, with so many notifications! Haha, crazy stuff. Sometimes I can't even understand why I'm that obsessed. Oh well...
