This is the first time I noticed that Facebook's "put colors over your profile picture" thing is time-limited. People don't even have to remember to change it back anymore when they lose interest, it will just automatically change back when Facebook decides it's time for that.

The same people that don't give a shit about real problems in the world and can't talk for even a minute about major issues suddenly want to express their support. And even that pales in comparison to the folks posting nasty attacks against Obama relating to this, or insanely xenophobic anti-Muslim and/or anti-Arab (et al) rants. I think this might be what finally gets me off Facebook.
