I miss the times of analog clocks

Nepsotic 08-18-2012 11:21 AM

He called him a retard, yet he spells 'aren't' wrong. I don't mean the lack of an apostrophe, because I usually don't use much punctuation on facebook, but he didn't even put the 'E' in!

I recently deleted my Facebook

I like it when people argue that it helps you stay in touch with people. Not like there aren't a million other devices or networks you can instantly connect to or anything, no sir.

Been wanting to do that for a while but it's hard when you're dependent on the system.

ooh agreed, if they really cared about you it wouldn't be a prob staying in touch. i'm demanding phone numbers from everyone on my friend's list then deleting my account. I never liked FB, actually I preferred MySpace because it let you change the background and put playlists on your page, that was more fun.

The only thing I can think of reading that op was "BITCHES AND WHORES". Not reactionarily, but as Neps motivation

I've always been substantially more concerned with Facebook collecting personal information/ad research data related to my likes and dislikes, and how totally fucking wrong they get what advertising is bounced back at me.

It's essentially "carpe diem" for retarded young people.
You can get some great jokes out of it though.

Dont listen to him. he's just trolling.

I just got into a conversation with someone who posted this;

http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot...64360844_n.jpg

Me, personally, thought that that little paragraph is stupid as fuck and anybody that agreed with this are just as blind as the people they claim to dislike. And I mentioned, differently, that this was the case to the person when he said the greatest thing ever.

:

And another sad truth is... in today's world, pessimism = living in the real world with both eyes open. It's sad.

He said more stupid things and some of the was even more stupid than that. But yeah, people like that annoys me on Facebook.

Crashpunk 08-26-2012 03:53 AM

Wow, That's one of the most stereotypical and mediated paragraphs I've ever read.

Before sayin that's not true make a trip in Italy; if you survive that i'm listening.:fuzemb:

Ridg3 08-26-2012 04:10 AM

Why? Does Italy represent the rest of the world? If it does, I'll go and realize that I was wrong and silly.

It's not untrue, but it also ignores the fact that there are plenty of good people who are successful as well. I also assume the guy who posted it did it with arrogance and pretentiousness, acting as if he made some sort of exciting discovery and a brand new way of thinking. The end is also overly cynical. Posts like these are what I was talking about when I complained about people using posts as soapboxes.

Varrok 08-26-2012 01:53 PM

I'm surprized he doesn't think that video games suck nowadays.

I mentioned this to him. He disbelieves that people made it legit and can be really nice people. He brushed it off with more nonsense.

MeechMunchie 08-26-2012 02:38 PM

I enjoy liking unpopular comments on friends' photos. Especially ones that caused arguments.

How old is he?

Nepsotic 08-26-2012 05:24 PM

Probably some arrogant 16 year old who thinks he is god's gift to the world.

What annoys me most about posts like that, is that there is always about ten other people who like it to make themselves look good.

Also people who always post songs and lyrics.

Annoys the dick out of me.

Wings of Fire 08-26-2012 06:40 PM

Infinitely worse than posting songs and lyrics on facebook is installing an app to change friends and likes to ponies and brohoofs.

I'd be embarrassed to know anyone who indulged in that faggotry.

Nepsotic 08-26-2012 07:09 PM

It's not just an app. And you write friendship letters and join herds, not groups. But anyway, that's not the point. /)

Please don't start another pony-related discussion/argument.

Hahahaha well said.
Sometimes people make for such a pathetic display on FaceBook, worse still they are the ones deciding to go public with it.

On the flip side it makes it easier for employers to filter through the trash.

Fluff [: 08-26-2012 10:00 PM

All facebook is these days is the ULTIMATE stalker site,
most of the time im on facebook im not even on my wall im on other peoples profiles or my own,

also what the fuck is up with the tumblr craze.

Hazel-Rah 08-26-2012 10:17 PM

there, i deleted it, now you people are my only friends

Daxter King 08-26-2012 10:57 PM

Are you kidding me? Tumblr is a goddamn goldmine for insane teenagers.
:


I almost attacked my younger sister. My wings grew out, my fangs extended, and I almost ripped her neck out.

I really need to work on my control. Because I cannot let that happen again. We fight a lot, I don’t know what happened this time.

I wish the Family would come help me….

He was around 20-30, I think. I don't know him. He posted on my mates wallpost so it was the first time we ever had contact.

Ow... That hurt my heart.

And Twitter is more of a stalker site. Following people. On Facebook, at least you give them a friend request.

Good. That is how it should and will always be. *puts you in chains and locks in place* We are your only friends...... forever...:robot:

Sekto Springs 08-27-2012 01:39 PM

Facebook's fine. Stop whining.
Every single gripe mentioned in this thread can be avoided/rectified with a bit of micro managing. All social media sites are inherently shitty, it's not news.

Nepsotic 08-27-2012 01:48 PM

Yes, but everybody loves a good moan, don't deny it.

Sekto Springs 08-27-2012 03:07 PM

And that's fine, I just challenge anyone in this forum to suggest a better online social network. And nobody say Google+. Google+ is a miserable ghost town.

I used to complain about Facebook's interface, and their forced upgrades, but it's not gotten to the "completely unusable" point yet. Youtube, on the other hand...

Nepsotic 08-27-2012 04:30 PM

That's why I use Ponyhoof. It's a completely different interface and it's easy to navigate through, even though I hardly go on facebook.
