I recently deleted my Facebook, tired of the memes, soapboxes, and drama. Seriously though, the soapboxes are the fucking worst. At this point they reach almost Reddit levels of circle jerking, the only people who like or comment will agree with you, and then you just think you're so cool because you're being jizzed on all over on Facebook in a circle jerk. You will change no one's mind by making a shitty post saying Chikfila is evil, even though at the end you say you're still going to eat there yourself. The fact that their isn't an unlike button cements my point that there is no realm for actual discussion on Facebook, can't hurt anyone's feelings, can't disagree.

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.

I dissagreed with something one of my friends said on Facebook the other day. It made her deactivate her account.

I wish I was joking.

There was a picture of some children with extremely short arms due to their mothers taking thalidomide and it had a caption that said "Look, we are velociraptors".

That's awful. Velociraptor had long arms.

Well I don't know much about dinosaurs, but that was not really the point of the post.

Everyone has friends like that, it's no big deal, you just ignore the shit or delete them.

Not me. That's because the average age of my friends is in the mid-late 20s.

:

What I want to know is, am I the only person with people like these on facebook? Do you see this stuff on your wall too? Post pics.

Enjoy!

Has anyone seen this knockin' about?

Dynamithix · #37 08-18-2012, 07:07 AM

That stupid joke is old as shit.

Nepsotic · #38 08-18-2012, 07:12 AM

Really? I genuinely thought it was serious.

Crashpunk · #39 08-18-2012, 08:24 AM

Facebook doesn't suck, it's the people on it.

I use Facebook and yes there are idiots on there but you just have to ignore them. It's a good way to get in contact with someone and also keep track with stuff. *eg Oddworld always post stuff on Facebook.

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!

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.

Ridg3 · #54 08-26-2012, 03:21 AM

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

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 · #55 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.

Ridg3 · #57 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 · #59 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.
