Worst/weirdest thing about Thanksgiving this year was how much folks-- all ages!-- assume everyone's whole personal life is online. I've mostly opted out of producing and consuming. It's disappointing when people 1) assume that I know about every trip, wedding, etc, and thus don't discuss their lives in person; or 2) assume that I did nothing since I didn't blog/Facebook/tweet about it. What a bummer.
