Hmm, boring
I kind of forgot my password months ago....haven't made a new account as yet.....
I do have a facebook account but only my Mrs uses it to give extra benefits on the games she plays
Curdish terrorist? I herd they were responsible for the udder devastation at Churnoble and they are trying to get their hooves on CUD missiles - apparently they have a beef against the people of Hamburg.
Ahem, anyway, TWorg now says "Awaiting membership confirmation". With no admins, I guess this ain't gonna happen.
I feel a sense of pride in not having Facebook.
me too. i am one of only two friends remaining that still refuse to fazebook.
apparently stauch allies i the anti-fazebook clan has since jumped ship................ once they became single, and facebook became just another resource in the endless search for new p00n.
i shan't crumble!*
* as long as i remain attached
Spartakus is the other person.Quote:
Hax and someone else, who I don't know the org username of.
Well I went from a TWorg status of "Awaiting membership confirmation" back to "click to join". :wall:
I have a facebook.
Man, when I think about it, I've almost had the thing for 3 1/2 years now. Man how that site has changed....:juggle2:
I found Hooahguy's facebook page - and there are remnants of Hax still there.
Did you manage to replace the bad blood? Or are you still playing silly semitics?
*AHEM!* I meant semantics...
I HERD U LIEK FAZEBOWKZ SO I PUT A FAZEBOWK INTO YER FAZEBOWK SO U CAN FAZEBOWK WHILE U FAZEBOWK.
MOAR OV YOU ADD MEY.
Keep fighting. The Good Fight.
I don't see the point of it. The internet should be about brining together people from all around the world, of different nationalities, viewpoints and origins. Facebook brings together people you have always been together with, so they all have the same nationalities, viewpoints and origins. Together with the fact that they sell your personal information to advertisers, I'm not interested.
Besides, within about a year, Facebook will have gone the way of Myspasm and be a burned out husk of the smart, intelligent idea it might have been, before it was ransacked by pretentious
I probably would have joined it when it was first around, when there were no, stupid adverts, stupid apps, stupid quizes, stupid games, stupid people, old people...I could go on.
I kindly invite you to exchange PMs if you are inclined to delve into personal matters, so as to prevent any probable misunderstandings which eventually will lead to the inevitable havoc of Lemurly tails of justice.
:bow:
It is useful for organising events and such. Yeh. Why not. So what if some stuff about me is on the internet. What anyone would want with who my mates are, what I look like and what country I live in --- I don't know. And anyway these are things that you could glean from me in standard conversation.
FWIW, when you're an older dude like me, you tend to have friends all over the world. Some of my buds are downright vagrant, moving from job to job and country to country. Facebook is a godsend for keeping track of them.
Let's take one example at random -- the Modly family. Old, old friends of mine, who jumped from Chicago to Tunisia for six years. Now they're in Seoul, but often enough they're in Malaysia. They change email addys and phone numbers more often than you chage your socks. Pre-Facebook, keeping tabs on them was a nightmare. Now I can just check their family page to see their current contact info. This is convenient.
Likewise an old writer pal of mine, who drifts from city to city. I know he's now living in Georgia. How do I know this? 'Cause he updates his FB page. He'd be much too lazy to let everyone know where he is otherwise.
I know that FB has mutated in many ways, and has tons of games and spam and status BS, but here's the thing—the core functionality is still there, and nobody forces you to get involved in the trivialities and distractions. Moreover, the layout is forcibly clean, so you don't get room spins and headaches trying to get info from a page, as you did with MySpace.
It's a useful tool. If you let it become more than that, whose fault might that be? Facebook's? Or yours?
True, but there's a pressure on users of Facebook to use it for more than keeping tabs on far away people; Facebook can't make money like that.
I do and I have more friends than all of you.
I also have super sweet status updates.
