Re: Facebook Like an Infectious Disease, Will Lose 80% of Users, Princeton Study
LMAO I've created a fake FB account only for the sake of trolling people that i know in real life: for example, one of them first accepted my friend request; after a couple of days, i started trolling him with invitations to join some random mushrooms seekers associations, tried to convince him to switch from Windows 7 to Ubuntu 13.0 (with something like 60/70 PMs, only for that), tried to sell him a car NOT working for 5,000 €, tried to convince him to root for a football team that he hates because according to me it would have brought good luck to him (since i had dreamed about it), tried to sell him half a kilo of marijuana for 2,500€., tried to convince him that Hitler is still alive and that he currently sells ice creams in Ohio (also providing him with obviously photoshopped images, as proof), and other stuff that i don't remember right now, but it was stuff about UFOs, chemtrails and remote mind control technologies. When i've met him weeks after (in real life), he immediately started talking about the issue: "Eh you know, there's a dude on FB with a never-heard-before-name mincing my balls with strange invitations, he wants to sell me drugs, he wants me to join mushrooms seekers associations blah blah blah.... Wow, the man was very frustrated and angry, so angry that i rather decided to NOT confess that it was me. I told him to remove the dude from his buddy list and he answered "Eh, who knows what would he do to me then? That man is crazy, it wouldn't be a surprise if he puts some bomb under my ass as a retailation: no no, i'll rather keep him as a friend because a crazy friend is much better than a crazy enemy." Damn too funny, but i must change target now, poor man |

Re: Facebook Like an Infectious Disease, Will Lose 80% of Users, Princeton Study
I used to use FB to keep up with high school and college friends only. But once I developed a chronic myalgic disorder, I had a lot less desire to post about my life and I sure as shit didn't care about what they were doing. So after about 6 months of not caring about FB any longer, I just shutdown my profile and haven't gone back. It was fun catching up with all my high school/college friends at first. But the way FB kept changing the look and feel all the time, it made it hard to keep track of the friends you wanted and avoid the "Hey, look at me!" friends after a while. |

Facebook can be dead weight in your life. People who you should forget about for whatever reason remain on your friends list.

I agree... Facebook was good when it started as I was able to keep up with all of my friends... I have 400 ACTUAL friends from about 15 different states and I still talk with most of them... I don't "friend" a person unless I know them well and like to talk to them so.... It's gone to shit with the ads, stupid drama, etc...

Re: Facebook Like an Infectious Disease, Will Lose 80% of Users, Princeton Study
I know or have met at least once, most of the people on my page. I don't collect people. Some are friends of friends or people from the couple of groups I am in, but, we have a common interest. I hate them changing things without asking! They keep changing my fucking timeline, which I hate anyway! The ads are pretty much gone since someone told me to keep refusing them and telling them why. It was good for finding people I had lost track of since I did not grow up with a computer and iPhone in my hands. I keep track of musicians and comedians who don't do e-mail lists, but, that's about it. Most of the people, I can visit, call or e-mail, but, I hate the lack of privacy. I do like that they are finding criminals with it. |

Someone posted this in the Random Pics and it's great! I don't recall who. It made me laugh until I cried. Shoot! I don't know how to enlarge it. |
