Good luck to Facebook

Hadn't logged in for a few weeks, and FB kept sending me "you missed these updates" emails EVERY FUCKING DAY. Take a fucking hint, clingy bitch.

lol

^ What FB sh0ulda been

Deleted my 6y old youtube account and gmail, but keeping fb w/e, my mom friended me !

I deactivated my account a few years ago, and was quite happy with it. A year later I almost missed two social events since all info, and all the discussion was on Facebook only. I re-activated it, and now I just use it to send messages and to follow a few concert venues and festivals. I just hide the people with the stupid updates, and my own wall and profile is totally empty. I check Facebook perhaps once/twice a day, but rarely spend more than a minute or two.

I wish that pile of webshite mass surveillance piece of crap social stupidity platform never existed. Either that or people should be treating it as a joke; instead of posting true facts about their lives on it, they should just be trolling/misinforming the living shit out of each other, until no one would have the slightest clue as to whether the other user was being serious or not.

Nah, just kidding, I freaking HEART FB, really. :)

They can't reach you here.

I can't be the only one who enjoys the voyeuristic pleasures of watching people you barely know IRL post both embarrassing & extremely personal things? As much as I deny it on the outside, I actually quite like my daily facepalming.

I deleted my account about 6 months ago. Anyone that gives a shit about me, actually, will call me and make some effort to get together and talk.

 

Honestly I think facebook has been incredibly destructive to the traditional definition of friend and relationship. It's about time we go back to meeting our friends in person... exchanging ideas over a beer or a coffee instead of a "wall".

 

Also, this just crossed my mind now but Yek, what was your previous screenname? =/

Shit yeah, I should fly to Korea, japan, China, England, America, and Australia on a weekly basis so I can get together with my friends. Just seems like a bit of an overreaction right?

Facebook only gets in the way of actual socializing if you let it.

And like Salvatorin says, you control your Facebook feed. Most of my shit is political economy or North Korea related. I don't get any stupid meme bullshit on my feed.

facebook is at it's most weird when you run into 'friends' you've never met in real life who act like they're your real friend and turn to others and say 'hey let me introduce you to my friend'. It's surreal and unsettling to say the least, but admittedly one open's themselves up to clingy people and people with no social differentiating filter if you collect friends to expand your promotional reach. So chengod is ultimately right, but when you have a famous sister people try to sidle you and act like they're your buddy in the most unusual circumstances, facebook just makes it weirder and more unpredictable

i was opposed to what you were saying about people acting kindly towards you awe, but then you reminded about your whole sister thing. Yeah, the creeps would creep.

Oh I don't friend anyone I've never met in real life...but I don't have a famous sister either.

My mother got pissed when I wouldn't accept her friend request though, especially cause she knows my dad is on my Facebook. It's funny and frustrating trying to explain to my dad about what the correct sort of etiquette is for posing questions on Facebook.

Who is Ehrlichman's famous sister?

Ms. Ehrlichman

That's Ms. Ehrlichman Esq. to you.

And you deign to call yourself a WATMM elder. For shame, sir.

I use Facebook as a sort of RSS feeder of what I like. Local stuff, architecture, music groups, etc... Once you do that it's awesome, and if you want to read friends stuff just create different categories.

I might have been around but I don't pay attention to who's who.

I definitely want to know now.

It's definitely not Scarlett Johansson

I hate how facebook keeps roping me into liking things.. and then I end up liking things I wouldn't normally like. you know, for completions sake. I am up to my neck in bullshit when I visit facebook. but there's also some nice stuff.. so I guess I'm getting really good at sifting through the bullshit these days. not a bad quality.
