I used to go out with some girl who'd like to show me pictures of her nights out. There was like 300 pictures.

 

1.Who are these people and why do I care?

2.Did you doing anything else that night but take pictures that night? How is that fun?

 

It lasted about a week or two.

lol!

There's a way of opting out of that top-bar of photos. Although, rather anally, I still maintain mine so I can only ever see the photos I like.

 

i ended up making my photo album invisible to everyone but me

What's a pain though, is when other people label you in their own photos. You can turn off that ending up in your feed. But it's an invasive fuckaround that should be opt in, not opt out. Seriously

Im tempted to post extremely offensive jokes and all the fucked up things my mind can muster and pull the "my account was hacked" excuse

I use the hack with an account excuse.

true, i've seen some horribly incriminating pictures of my friends come up before they could untag themselves. i always make sure to comment immediately to draw more attention to it.

facebook is stalker haven? shit is whack, i agree

You can turn off the ability for other people to tag you. You can also disable the facial recognition shit they have now too. When you upload photos it recognizes people and auto-tags people

I think I disabled the facial-recognition. Is that the 'suggest my name if it looks like face' shit, or is it somewhere deeper in the settings page?

Yeah, that's it. I've disabled it as well. Fucking creepy, I read it's the same tech the army uses to identify people in the middle east ( and probably all over the world)

That's a little scary.

Awesome. Didn't know about that last bit concerning the fingerprint stuff. That's even creepier and irritating than the facial recognition itself; I assume that it's all mentioned somewhere in some section of the terms of use... but that little 'contact us' button, in small print in the middle of a block of text... deceptive bastards hoping we won't see it, and if we did, that since it doesn't say 'delete my facial fingerprint' or something similar, that the average user will ignore it?

should be renamed "add as acquaintance"

by tomorrow i shall acquire the 6th

i'm always making lame ass wise guy status updates when i'm drunk on facebook about love and truth and consciousness and i feel so good about it and then i wake up the next morning and i'm like why the fuck did i say something like that on facebook?

This guy I have on facebook is such an annoying awkward christian who needs a girlfriend and keeps posting these disastrous buttery 'treat a lady right' status updates that smell of mawkish desperate theologically enforced blue balls

In a world where women long to be loved fully, I want to make her the legend.

Love is the most unappreciated thing we have possession of.

A woman is the most precious thing.

Boyz II Men, oh how you make me want to have a girl!

Oh my lol.

2 of my friends have left facebook over the past month. I have been toying with the idea for a while now. Think I will bite the bullet soon.

Haha perfect! I just can't bring myself to delete him, it's that sort of thing that keeps facebook from being actually boring

people say that "yeah but everyone has a Facebook account, so it's just more convenient"...well, everyone that has a Facebook account also has an email account. so there you go.

yeah, that's assuming people use their email accounts. I'll bet the majority of people that have email addresses only have them so that they can sign up for things like facebook. my exgirlfriend has an email account with thousands of unread emails because she doesn't use her email account. she uses facebook. it is more convenient because of the amount of people that actually use the service consistently.

the endless promotion of bands on facebook is insane and kinda opened me to the realization of why most music is so boring. you have mediocre artists supporting other mediocre artists simply because they're being supported, not because they're actually good but because of mutual support. i actually had a case where a friend truly liked my music and then took it away because i didn't support his band, which i didn't like. i can't see liking stuff i don't like just because i know them.. unless the word like has taken a new meaning - but only on facebook. fucking stupid.

Yeah... I have a friend who is always sharing what I post whenever I post an update on an album or what's going on with the label. I never share what he's doing and he asked me to about a month ago when he made a new video. Because I can't support something I don't like. He's a horrible film producer and blames his lack of equipment for this. He asked me several times if he can do a video for a track on my new album, but I declined and told him that I have people that know what they're doing taking care of this already. He hasn't shared any of my posts recently, so I think he's but hurt.

This same dude freely posts about his breast fetishes atleast 3 to 5 times a day.

The same friend used this excuse one day when porn related content showed up on in the feeds. He was like "oh... I must have been hacked!" all his friends believed him but me. I called him out saying "there are some porn sites that automatically post something on your fb when you visit that site." He didn't admit to it online, but told me in a conversation that that's what happened.
