facebook

[Harlan Huckleby]

I was forced to sign-up for facebook. The good news is that friends of friends send requests to be my "friend", its nice to "see" some of these old acquaintances. The bad news is that it seems like a giant bore of people sending tweet-like messages around and annoying each other.

Is everybody on facebook? I feel like I just discovered that there is porn on the internet. How long has this been going on?

This is the picture I chose for my profile, it expresses my presence there:

Part of the health care bill. Have to sign up to get the free benefits.

Maybe you post pictures of your hemorrhoids and you wait for a proctologist to request friend status.

I was on Facebook. Not anymore. It was just a daily reminder of how fucked up my life is compared to everyone elses. That, and it's annoying to read through posts from top to bottom from people that confuse facebook with twitter.

I am on Facebook. I've found that it's a really good tool to stay in touch with people who have moved away, and even more now that I have moved a few states away. If you don't give a shit about someone from your third grade class and their posts are worthless, delete them so you can enjoy other people in your life. It's not a substitute for face to face interaction, but it is a useful tool to communicate over distance.

email with pictures and video. a lot easier to stay in touch or communicate with a bunch of people at once versus one at a time. to each their own. i use it a ton.

Hah! I know what you mean, I have several friends a lot younger than me, and it does get irritating to hear of the dozen or so social events they seem to attend every week.

That, and it's annoying to read through posts from top to bottom from people that confuse facebook with twitter.

ya, that was the first shocker. The first comment I made was a request for helping in tweeting a facebook, and I was informed by a sarcastic youngster that "the internet is a great place to find information about news, sports and even weather reports."

OMG, my facebook page is getting spammed with news of people I don't much know making new friends with people I never knew. What a shit dump facebook is. I need to start losing friends, time to go to work on it.

Click the post of the person you want to know nothing about, click the hide button.

you can HIDE every single one pretty easily. on your home page where everyone's news is filtering down, move your cursor over the right side of the app in question, a HIDE button will pop up. if you click it you will be prompted to hide the person who posted it, or just to hide the application, or neither. cleans your news feed up in a hurry.
