Somebody end the madness

The internet is cluttered enough, there are thousands of parallel websites in our parallel universe and most everything we find online majorly sucks.  .
I spend hours per week online and honestly I cannot fathom finding some of the crap others find even remotely entertaining.  There is so much crap clogging up the internet that the amount of fried brain-cells it causes on an hourly basis blows away the total soldiers lost in every war ever fought.
--As you can tell saving bandwidth is the latest TOR soap-box issue which I realize is more than just a bit ironic--

But there is no bigger waste of bandwidth than Farmville.   I would say that at any given time 50% of all the feeds in my NewsFeed are Farmville related and if you ask me what exactly this is all about I would say that except for the fact I'm confronted by this thing 10-15x per day, I have absolutely no idea what this is and I am convinced that I am better off not knowing because I am already down enough brain-cells from ChatRoulette/YouPorn/PicturesThatMayOrMaynotRule.

What I do know is that Farmville is like a computer virus which has apparently infected many otherwise sane people.   For those blessed to live in a cave, this is basically some online game where you grow a virtual garden and you offer people virtual vegetables.    I would personally like somebody to give a big virtual and not-so-virtual kick in the ass of anybody who clutters up my life with this stuff.

As occasional TOR reader and even less occasional blogger The Native-American Prince says  "I hope every Farmville has a crop killing drought" and suggests otherwise we should salt the earth.

This is the kind of hatred we need, we must band together and root out this virus and like most things venom we must start by chopping off its food source and that food source is apparently the stupidity of the masses.
