I think the Triangle of Despair can best be summed up by a Facebook metaphor:

HS- facebook has grown and grown to a huge networking website. I can assure you that they're not doing it to reconnect somebody that you knew that summer before sophomore year. the facebook founders are greedy just like everybody else.

SC- People are always whining about the "new facebook" or some other cause. So they think that by joining these groups (If 1 million people join this group they'll mark zuckerberg will bring back the old facebool"). And no matter how many people join those groups, nothing's changed, and Mark Zuckerberg's not going to change the new facebook back to the old one. get over it guys.

ES- when they were introducing the new facebook and the mini-feed features they gave people a trial run at first, then finally forced it on them. the truth is that people didn't change their minds about the mini-feed or the new facebook when given a choice, it was just forced on them in one huge leap.

So not only have I showed what a massive email checking facebook stalking freak I am, I have also shown how Facebook is a microcausm for the Triangle of Despair.
