Or to narcissistically share things from your life that you imagine the people who "friend" you would probably "like." Because the chances of you putting up a picture or post that illustrates unhappiness or discontent or troubles (which I'm assuming is where most people want real friends to ride through the "experience" with) are are pretty slim. Facebook is, for the most part, crawling with people who are desperate to be "liked." People who can't imagine their self image being tarnished in front of the "friends" they don't really give a shit about. So sharing things that don't matter, with people who don't matter, is your way of "sharing the experience?" Come on. You don't need Facebook to stay in touch with an old pal if the friendship is built to last.
(Waits for Karma to kick in...) Boom there we go. Nah, I'm just going to go with the situation. She's obviously into me, I just take it slow, and stay honest. I threw out some goofy ass shit and she still rolled with it. She DID bust my balls for not drinking beer. Which I found very endearing. Three things. First, start finding those with a black guy in them or give it up. I'm not white. Second, the FWB situation has been fizzling anyway. Pretty sure she was rebounding and is now coming back to square one. Plus, it's been going on for 9 months, its time to get into a relationship. Third, I'm not a cock master like you, fucking mothers and daughters. Never in my life have I dated more than one girl. I don't want it done to me, so I'm not going to do it to her. The understanding with the FWB is clear as we talked about everything before we starting being FWB. If we start dating someone else, we inform the other person, which puts us on an indefinite hiatus. There is no loss in me telling the FWB "Hey, I'm doing this" as she's always been encouraging me to keep my eyes open. And if she ends up being a clinger, cool. I've never dated one before, if it sucks, it'll be a good story and wisdom to move forward. This girl loves shitty movies like I do, eats whatever she wants but still looks great, and watches football. Now as long as she doesn't have any weird hang-ups about sex, she can cling the fuck away. Last 2 girls, one just had a really fucked up controlling mindset about sex/didn't swallow. The FWB doesn't give head at all or like giving head and doesn't do morning sex. Weird, I know.
That's a pretty sad commentary considering there are somewhere around 1,000,000,000 Facebook users in the world. I don't disagree with you at all, but it is pretty damn sad.
There are a lot of fake accounts I have read, but yea, I mostly agree with hooker's commentary on most user activity. I still call and email my friend. Probably not as much as my family, but she still knows what is up with me. She is back in school because she didn't like her masters program, so she is redoing an undergrad degree. She has said some kind if bratty and/or close minded things to me over the last visit that either didn't wouldn't have bothered me before, or that she wouldn't have said before. Can't decide. Either way, she is doing her own thing and I am doing mine. She'll always be my friend but we probably won't be as close as we once were.
Have you used facebook recently? Half of the shit people post are relationship issues, my life sucks, etc. If anything people use it more for emotional support than they do for anything. I personally use it to keep up with friends and family, as it makes it ten times easier to show them all a picture of my new puppy at once. Maybe I'm just in it for the likes.
I'm with Frebis, I use it to keep up with friends and let people know if I'm traveling in case a friend I haven't talked to in a while is going to be where I'm going. Throwing in a joke/funny story (personal, not directly copied and pasted from Reddit) here and there doesn't hurt either. Sure I have one or two friends that post stupid meaningless shit, but the vast majority of my friends just don't post that much or post useful/funny things. Plus, watching the train wrecks is just good fun. And say what you want about "friendships meant to last" but I doubt I would have as close contact with all my high school friends as I do without the technology, and those are all great friendships. You haters are just haters.
For what its worth, she deleted her's for awhile too. Also, she posts too much annoying religious stuff. I just ant like that.
Holy Shit! You're from one of those 'Sally Struthers' countries, aren't you? Did some family 'adopt' you from the U.S. for pennies a day? Were you raised by gazelles? Be honest, did you get raped by a rhino?
Truthfully, Raiders & Last Crusade are awesome saturday-matinee classics, Crystal Skull is ok and Temple of Doom is nauseating, headache-inducing garbage. And Princess Bride is the tits. "It just so happens that your friend is only MOSTLY dead."
I . . . it's just that . . . I don't know you anymore! Seriously, though, that's a pretty broad list of things to not have seen. Do you even watch movies?
Having a child that loves snow is nothing short of a fucking curse. I was hoping becasue she loved the beach that she would despise winter like I do (with the exception of tobogganing which is awesome) but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO she instead is the kind that just lunges like a warhead into the yard and dives headlong into three feet deep of snow.
So you hate 9 months out of the year? Also, who hates Allison Brie and there's a female Captain America?
I hate everything right now, and that includes miss cheese. I think I caught whatever was going around at Christmas. I got cocky because I wasn't sick all 11 days and let one of the rugrats take a couple bites from my fork. And suddenly, as I sit in the airport, I get sicker and achier. My muscles ache, my spine feels tender, and my stomach is queasy. Fuck. This.
Time to take down the lights, I reckon. You know all those warning tags near the plugs on the light strands? I'm glad there's not one that discourages this:
Haven't been sick at all since I stopped eating rubbish food. Grav, aren't you always complaining that you're bored? Sounds like a perfect time to solve this pop culture retardation thing you have going on and watch some Indy and Princess Bride.
I just had surgery on my nose this morning to fix a deviated septum. My face hurts, my nose is pretty much running blood constantly, I have the chills, my bladder has decided to become 80 years old, I have a sore throat, and despite drinking water like a fish my mouth feels like a desert. My point is this: Despite all this, I still feel vastly better than I did last Friday when I was up to a week's worth of sleep deprivation. Holy shit, I totally understand why sleep deprivation is used as a method of torture. By Thursday I would be laying in bad wishing for the sweet release of death and contemplated what potential instruments of my demise I had in my house, I was that miserable. It certainly tops the week when I had mono and diarrhea at the same time and was puking and shitting nonstop.
