Stuck in a rut is far less work

Saw this tweet go out today via Twitter Support:

Some users are unable to upload a new . We're aware of the issue & working to fix it.


And it occurred to me to wonder... how many people try to change their avatars and how often?  I know I see avatars that seem to be changed on a weekly and even daily basis on twitter and facebook. 

My thought?  There's at least 15 minutes of my life I won't get back just to change a teensy picture... not to mention the abusive tweets one decides must be written once one does waste the time to change the avatar only to find that twitter is (surprise!)  FUBAR.  And then the anxious waiting until twitter says "it's fixed".  Followed by more abusive tweeting to the twitter help after one finally gets the beloved avatar changed.

Yeah, it makes me tired just thinking about all that work for a teensy picture.  I think I'll go take a nap.

1 Also, you get so used to seeing one pic, the change is just too much all at once. Too weird. So you're like, "OMG why did they change?! I don't like change! Why have they done this to me? How am I supposed to deal with this? This is awfully unfair and abrupt! I must go lie down now."

2 Exactly.  Too mentally stressing for words.  Ennui then sets in...

3 I figured I'd generated enough ennui with my first picture.

4 LOL - I did change my picture once... don't plan on doing that again for a while.

5 I don't even know if I know how to change mine.  Nor do I care. I set it like seven years ago when I started to blog.  I don't even remember... doing it.  But I did, because I recognize the fake picture of me as something I created...
