Six Degrees of Separation 03122009

They say that everyone on the planet is connected to someone else by 6 steps. But I have noticed in the past couple of weeks that certain communities are linked even closer, which is not always a good thing. Maybe its the many sites that we frequent or just the growing number of people that are 'out', but I feel that it s really getting out of hand in the DC gay community. Everytime I turn around, I see someone that knows someone that I talked to or messed with. And then it gets worse when I hear about all the hook ups and 'friendships' that happen between people that I would have thought are worlds apart. It seems that everyone knows everything about everyone through everyone. I mean this to say that person A knows about person J because persons B-I talked to both people and everyone in between. This shit is fustrating and I can't wait til I move away!!
