Hate on facebook

Red__Zed · 03-24-2011, 11:02 AM

I use it for what it is convenient for, but I spend less than 15 minutes a day on it. I prefer to waste my time on forums, rather than facebook.

Same here. Never spent much time on it anyway.

I think I'm alright with face to face time, glad I'm not one of those awkward pplz.

Ok so i'll pm AK about the move, or he can delete it if that what you guys want.

So many means of communication, yet people are going socially sterile. Hell, even handwriting is going out the door.

People to day (mostly young peeps) think that everyone wants to know what they are doing all the damn time. This is not true, all my friends that are my age (30's) use it aswell so i don't think it's the age thing. I just think it's dumb, i've never used it as i know how to use the damn phone to talk with the people i know. I get the same lame answers from the people i know like, "I use it to reconnect with old friends" if you were really friends you would have never lost track to begin with. Or "I meet so many women (or men whatever the case may be) on there you just don't know." Well incase you haven't noticed the world is very over populated and people have been hooking up for thousands of years as proof of such. Some people get their feelings so hurt that they kill themselves, or beat the other person up and/or kill them. All this over what some azz clown has said in print, it's just words people. "Sticks and stones, may break my bones but WORDS will never hurt me." I know some will say, "well your on this site and it's a type of social network." This is true, but atleast we are on here mostly for info and/or to connect with others that have 370's. If my friends were into cars i'd just hang with them. Well i could rant for hours about this, but any longer of a post and most won't read.

I just sent you a farmville request.....

is this a troll thread? not sure if serious.

i heard a study that was saying an ideal person's circle of 'meaningful friends' hovers around 50 people. supposedly there's another site being built that limits you to 50 friends / network connections / whatever you want to call them.

my fbook account just sits there...if people want to write me something i'll respond, but generally i don't write something in my status unless i'm REAAAALLY wored.

amusingly enough some people respond to fbook messages more than answering their phones or texts.

Someone needs to crash their Z or blow their engine so people have something relevant to read and post about...

Eh, I like facebook. Being in the military, I have friends all over the country and it would take way too much effort to call or email all of them. And it's not because we're not actually good friends, it's just that I'm busy with my job and they're busy with theirs. Unless I have some relatively significant reason to call or email them, it's just not gonna happen, and vice versa. But facebook makes it easy to see what they've been doing with their lives (mostly via photos), and they can see what I've been doing. So it's nice to sort of keep tabs on them until I have a reason and/or time to call and really catch up with that person. Also, I don't even add people unless I actually consider them a friend. Person I sort of knew in high school/middle school/whatever? Not getting added.

I think it's mostly people with too much time on their hands who do stupid **** like treat it like twitter or who play crap like farmville. Anyone who starts that gets immediately unfriended.

Way to much effort. I hope my safety isn't in your hands one day.
