So I'm going to dump Facebook at the end of the month when I turn 30. Hopefully, I won't feel like a loser, standing on the outside of the world's biggest social network.

Come to Fark sweety. We have parties and motivational posters 'n shiat.

Facebook is bad because it is assumed everywhere that you already have an account.

Job specialists and resume training program instructors tell you to make a Facebook profile. This is wrong. It is the wrong way. We should know better than this but we don't. It has never happened before. It's not hard to see that it will not be pretty when Facebook becomes no different than your drivers license or a utility company.

Meh, its your choice you don't want to be on FaceBook, many people don't, its OK, but do you really need to let the media know that you are doing so? I really don't care to read your attention whoring on the news (much less anywhere).

Go save a dog or a kid. Do something that would benefit the world, then get a spotlight. Do something other then 'derp'.

dmcpeek: So who is the funniest farker on Facebook? I'd like to "like" them and get some funny stuff.

I have many who daily crack me up. They post funny things and have amazing hearts. Offered support and kindness. Look on Facebook. I think there are two but you will notice the one you want.

Did anybody pick up that she's dumping her facebook because she doesn't like the mundane updates, and yet has opted to keep her twitter active, where her last update was "nap time"?
Pot, kettle, etc...

Also do love that she believes people posting about babbys first steps don't deserve a facebook update, but that her decision to leave facebook should be shared with the entire internet in a newsy fashion.

I'm half tempted to add her just to ask these questions, but the other half of me is tired and massively lazy.

findthefish: Saturn5: lousy screw: Just today, I posted on my Facebook, "Giving up Facebook for Lent."

From the replies, it appears a lot of my friends wouldn't know a joke if it fell out of the sky, landed on their face and started wiggling.

They key to a good joke is timing. You missed it by 40 days.

That is the joke


I have thought about a possible system for examining jokes. In the joke regarding posting on facebook about quiting facebook for Lent is that a single level or double level indirect joke? Irony of posting about FB on FB lulls unsuspecting observer into commenting on being late with comment. I think it is single level indirect. To clarify, the obvious part is direct and the part you have to figure out is indirect. Sometimes direct jokes are revealed to have farked up, twisted indirect interpretation unthought of by joke teller. So, I believe the following is double level indirect. "Do your parents know your gay?" What do you think?

skinink: "Whether it's a parent's friend or someone I met out, I'd just rather not do it or feel guilty for letting their friend request go ignored. "
I just had a relative leave me a phone message claiming I don't take her calls or make any comments to her on Facebook! I feel like giving her a speech that if she's so concerned abou me "Liking" her Status Updates or leaving a comment, I can just Unfriend her.
Actually she laid on a bigger guilt trip than I'm letting on and I wish I could post the voice mail just for a laugh.

Yeah, she did say that, right?

Why don't you just admit it - your coffee comment was just a stupid, off-the-cuff remark. Don't keep digging the hole deeper - it just makes you look like an idiot.


I don't drink coffee. Never have. One cappucino in Providence in 1990, and an iced coffee in Greenwich Village in 1999 (that was an accident). I don't think either of those count. SO yeah. White Knighting for the Coffee Underachiever!

GBmanNC:
Thats like saying you had sex with a someone by jacking off in their presence...It doesn't really count.



Ha.. funny story about that. Total missed opportunity. I was dating this girl that had decided to go to school on the east coast while I was in SF. (short story - long distance relationships never, ever work out. total waste of everyone's time, and only leads to heartbreak and rampant onanism). Anyway, there was a gal I used to pal around with at work at the time- cute, funny, amazing chest, etc., but we were strictly in the friend zone (due to my 'no cheating' policy). One day she says to me, "you know, we oughta watch some porn together.. have a "porn night". I was completely in agreement, so I said "yeah.. I guess I could probably find some.. you've got a vcr and everything, yeah?"

"Well, yeah, but I have a roommate.. We'll have to do it at your place."

"ok.. but um.. I don't have a tv..."

Long story short - when a gorgeous curly blonde offers to have a porn night at your place and you have no tv YOU GO OUT AND BUY A FARKING TV YOU TOTAL FARKING MORON.

Nothing ever happened, and she's happily married with children. Good for her, I say. She could have shacked up with a complete idiot. (me)

Wholesale Ass: Facebook is bad because it is assumed everywhere that you already have an account.

Indeed. I spent a good part of my morning yesterday trying to delete all traces of a facebook app from my phone, as I was sick of my phone trying to persuade me to allow it access to a facebook account that I've never farking had!

Yeah. Everybody knows Google+ is a wasteland, aside from a few celebrities and tens of millions of active users who post meaningful things that spawn good discussion. How are we supposed to get our daily dose of news about people's breakfasts in that sort of environment?

Let me tell you.
Let me tell you about me!
About what I'm doing!
Listen to me!

I'm doing something COOL and EDGY and *DIFFERENT*!
Because I'm COOL and EDGY and DIFFERENT!

But you wouldn't know that without me telling you!
So gather round! And I'll tell you all about it! About me! About what I do!
Listen to me!

That's adorable. That's 2% of the people on FB. That means as many as 10 of my 500 FB friends will be there. Of course, only about 100 of those are real friends, so on G+ that's equivalent to... me and 2 other people! WOOO! Party down!

100% wrong. First, I don't rant about facebook. It's not part of my existence. I'm 50 yrs old and my friends are my friends. We either talk on the phone or we go out and do stuff together. My family is my family. We either talk on the phone or we go out and do stuff together.

No one else on the world should care, and they certainly don't get to know, what I think or know about the world.

That is all.

Bennie Crabtree: I feel bad because I think facebook is wonderful for people who have active lives. In my spare time, I write grant proposals for nonprofits, and constantly post articles that are relevant to our causes. I also post rallies, public meetings, articles from newspapers that talk about the neighbourhoods in my city...my facebook page, and my friends' newsfeeds, are active and full of conversations. It's nice to be able to post an article about my neighbourhood and have not only my friends, but my city councillor, post a reply.

I meet up with my friends because we are artsy-farts. We use facebook to invite people to gallery shows and poetry readings. This past Saturday some friends of mine launched the third issue of their magazine, which is an unexpected business success, with 83 people at the launch. We live in a totally ignored, sleepy town called St. Catharines, Ontario. We know how to network, and we know how to piggyback each others' projects so that everyone's awesome event, political statement, or band, also becomes the point where we catch up on our lives and socialize.

This even includes people with kids, who commute to work, or who have very little money. The only trick is to make sure we know the owners of the local bars, cafes, and art galleries so we have various venues. once again, facebook connects our funky projects to local small businesses. I mean where the owner is also the operator, facebook would be worthless, I think, if we hung out at Starbucks or some other chain restaurant where the hit-or-miss sales value of hosting events is not as interesting to the management as selling drinks.However the benefit is that a good night of open mic at a local cafe can pay their staff for the week, and the success depends a lot on getting the word out.

The rants about facebook being useless come from, I think, people who are too busy commuting or working a shiatty job that takes up all their time. Those of us who are truly busy with tons of things on our plate ...


Wow, you have such a rich and interesting life. Full of coffee and venues and poetry and children! Where is this magical land where the townsfolk post to facebook and then go to an EVENT?? In a cool bar?? My world is dull and gray and I wish to be so very busy and fulfilled all the time. Alas, I loathe poetry readings and I am not on a first name basis with anyone who owns a "funky local venue".

mynameist: If she would just quit doing things that would be frowned upon by her professional colleagues, then she would have nothing to worry about. Lack of privacy is only bad for those who have things to hide.

This. If you are embarrassed by yourself in certain circles, stop doing embarrassing things or AT LEAST stop posting about them. Also, get into an anger management program if some db's picture of his/her breakfast annoys you. Further, you are under no obligation to read anything anyone posts. Or, you know, just stop logging in. If you delete your FB account in a fit of annoyance, you have too much time on your hands.
