I don't know about you lot but I fucking HATE Facebook. I am not in the slightest bit interested what you have had for your dinner (and I really don't want to see pictures of it).
Stop telling me how great your lives are and where in the world you are. Stop posting shit that might mean something to you but not to me.. whatever happened to people meeting up and chatting, and worst of all Facebook pretends to be your friend when it fucking is not.
I had 369 'friends' when I was on it, 2 of them were actually my friends, and one of them I did not like.

I have 454 friends, and likely only 15 of them are friends or family (including from here). The rest? Gaming partners on Pearl's Peril or Farmville 2 (which I don't play anymore).

Well tell us how you really feel.
Facebook is a tool like any other. It depends on how you use it. You don't like what your friends post? Unfollow them and follow people and things generating content you do want to see.
No one is required to cater to your tastes. Some of us actually do like to celebrate our friends' successes and travels....and still find time to meet up IRL.

I will say that I really do like the layout, and I appreciate the family connections I have made with FB. FB's important to my life even though folks can get annoying on it.

I deleted my account about a year ago. It was full of cunts posting pictures of their meals, constant game requests (even though I had disabled them, they still got through) and shitty ass memes.
Fuck Facebook.

Depending on how you define the term, I have around 20 friends, my wife has somewhat more.
Neither of us have a Facebook account.

I don't.

Then don't look.
Quote:Stop telling me how great your lives are
Why? If you're really a friend, you care about your friends' lives...
Quote:and where in the world you are.
Again... real friends care about that kind of thing. Like my friend who spends a good portion of his life in Turkey; I'm really glad I know where he is and how he's doing.
Quote:Stop posting shit that might mean something to you but not to me..
Should people ask whether
you care about something before posting it?
Quote:whatever happened to people meeting up and chatting,
Nothing, last I checked. In fact, I'm glad to be FB friends with people whom I can't regularly meet up with. I would have lost touch with a lot of people I know from all over the world if it weren't for FB.

FB isn't a person...

Why did you accept their friend requests, then?
