    Default Who needs Facebook?

    OK, I know many of you hate FB and I agree for the most part.

    After spending more time on this forum I’ve come to realize the only benefit of Facebook over these forums is that on Facebook I get to offend distant family members and their friends with completely different values. And, I get to see them during the holidays (some of them now completely avoid me, and whisper as I walk by (if you’re really pro teachers union we probably shouldn’t talk too muchJ)) but I get the same kind of outlet and support…. Other than all the pussies on FB (my mom included.. am I going to hell for that or is it a Freud moment?) that are afraid to offend someone.

    We’ve never had more than 60 FB friends / acquaintances and managed to be defriended by two (that we noticed), one on my side and one on my wife’s and both “teachers”.

    Well, that’s my rant for the moment, if you love FB let me know and I’ll reactivate our account and send you a friend request and see if it can be more fun. J

    FB is retarded but I use it to keep up with the family and some friends. My mom likes to see all the pics and videos of my little 15 month old daughter growing up. Other than that I tend to piss of some of them with my Pro Gun posts but I don't think I have ever had anyone defriend me.

    In my defense the Grandparents see the kids at least once a week.

    So, we're lucky!

    I don't need friends badly enough to have a FB account.

    Actually more people have responded to this thread than we have friends.

    I tried FB for 2 day's. It asked my to verify my E-mail address. The easy way is to enter your e-mail address here. I did and it hacked every E-mail contact in my computer. You probably know this person and this person and this person, etc. NO THANK YOU!! I deleted my account.

    Hey, any good friend would do the same thing... "where do you work", then spend some time there and find out who you know.... nothing wrong with that right.

    I've always taken our FB "About You" as a disclaimer. This has lead to several arguments and an accusation of impersonation.

    "This is the D******* family FB page for J*, K*, J* & A*.

    The opinions expressed here are the views of the writer (most likely J*) and do not necessarily reflect the views or opinions of this particular branch of the D******* family as a whole…

    Examples of analysis performed within these pages are only examples. They should not be utilized in real-world analytic products as they are based only on very limited information. Assumptions made within the analysis are not reflective of the position of any member of this family."

    I just deleted my account a couple months ago. I came to the realization that I know a lot of completely retarded people and it was making me dumber just by reading the posts that they would make. Sometimes it is better to simplify your life and stay away from crap like facebook. Also on the off the grid front I just ordered my first cell phone in 7 years yesterday. It will be here tomorrow. I bet the Galaxy III will be slightly more advanced than my Motorola flip phone I had from 2002. It was a necessary evil.
