Sure, the memes of FML and MLA (and all its other incarnations) are wonderful and entertaining. But what do you think the people who REALLY mattered in the world would have posted, had they had the chance?

I was a jew, and although my friends arranged for me to join them in the United States, I intially refused because I felt that to leave Europe would be to give up, and that I needed to stay to be true to the critical theory that I had spent my career developing. Finally, it became evident that I could no longer remain in Europe. I set out from France to Spain in order to board a ship to the US where my friends were waiting. Although I had papers, the borders were closed and we had to climb through the mountains on foot, during which time I suffered a series of minor heart attacks, probably because of the 2,000 page manuscript I was carrying in my suitcase. When we arrived in Port Bou, my party was denied entrance into Spain and sent back to France. That night, I committed suicide by swallowing cyanide capsules in my hotel room. The next day, the rest of my traveling companions were granted entry into Spain. FML.
