Are you a Facebook tool?
 

It's time you cut the cord: https://www.facebook.com/help/delete_account :thumbsup
FREE YOURSELF

Yup, Facebook is evil.

saving the link, thanks!

I do not have account there since I am on gfy.

:thumbsup

thanks, i just deleted my friend fb

My family busted my balls last year at a wedding in Indy cause I don't use it...

"See if you were more social and on facebook we were all chatting on there from our hotel rooms"

Thought my option of hitting the local bars across the street from my hotel was more social.

Never understand how facebook/twitter etc... is being social. Get out and get some air, the only ones that should be on there non stop are people with 5 kids that can never leave their home or old people with nothing to do. Shit didn't exist when I was kid and we played sports, rode bikes, bowled, shot pool etc...

I spend way too much time working online but that's okay cause I see a return for my time investment. Don't use it cause I don't have any extra time to spare with no return and honestly could give 2 shits about what people are doing or updating what I'm doing. Wanna know what I'm doing bring your ass over.

You think like a normal rational person and not the antisocial internet tools :thumbsup

I don't need freeing, because I don't let a website control me.

Sorry, but your reasoning is bunk. Facebook is a great tool to keep in touch with people you don't have the opportunity to see often to socialize with.

i use msn messenger, icq and my mail :winkwink:

Haven't deleted my account, but I stopped using it long ago.

We were all in the same massive hotel. So they all talked on facebook from their rooms and I walked across the street to the bar to hang with the local crowd. Think I win on the social tip and so does the whore I brought back to the room later that night. :1orglaugh

As far as other family goes email, text, icq works well. See no reason to throw shit out there for the general public to view as once I do then my family will expect me to be a full time facebook user and that doesn't excite me. Kinda like having second thoughts about giving a girl your number and then ya wake up to 50 text messages. Maybe when I'm older with nothing to do I'll use it.

see I'm working on ya, I predict soon you'll be rocking a Superior iPhone :1orglaugh

There would be 1% chance if I drank coffee, in that case I would have to bring apple products in order to enter starbucs.
0% since I don't :winkwink:

Get a Google Voice account for the ladies. :winkwink:

i still use it but it has its good and bad just like anything else. Good, you get to stay somewhat in touch with people you may not have time or the chance to normally, which is generally a good thing. Bad, because loudmouth cousins, friends, team mates who feel they have to have a loud opinion on anything and everything going on in the world and now we are all subject to listening to them. You can delete them i guess, but it's a good way to figure out who is nuts in your life and who you may want to avoid.. haha I can't be the only one who does this. Only stuff i post is recipes of food i just made--never pictures because food never photographs well. Wish others would stop trying.

A while back the wife and I bought my parents a pair of Samsung Galaxy tablets - and now hardly a day goes by that I don't hear them say, "I wish you'd go back on Facebook."

Since that's not an option - I'm considering confiscating their tablets. :1orglaugh

Never had an account :2 cents:

:1orglaugh Exactly the reason I don't use it cause with my family there is no in between. It's either I don't use it or if I do use it I'll get overloaded with shit or "he must not care about us since he didn't respond instantly" I'll pass for now anyway. :2 cents:

Introduce them to skype or email and explain that those could also be good to keep contact :1orglaugh

:thumbsup (exactly)

With me, I constantly got, "Oh, post those photos on facebook - I want to see the pics you took." Now, I can appreciate that they like my photography, but when it became a constant expectation - I just got tired of feeling like Pavlov's dog.

Embrace the inner marketer. Paysite!

basically when your younger your busy so ya don't have time, when ya get older you got jack shit going on but they don't realize that we still do, so in 10-20 years when were old and just playing with our nutsacks well expect the same from younger family and well be told to fuck off as well :1orglaugh

times are tough, charge your family :1orglaugh

We'll skip the middleman. Just rig up two tin cans and a tight string.

They live two blocks away. :1orglaugh

I freed myself 5 years ago.

Not much different than being a GFY tool...aside from there's a fuckload less bullshit drama to sift through.

I was in Vegas last year and having heard about all the spying Facebook does but equally how great of a site it is, considering it's not where I live and it wasn't my computer I decided to risk creating an account. So I took a last name from the phone book and made up some female first name then added some poorly shot photos of a model I shot.


My first impression was
* What the fuck!?!? This is the great new revolutionary site!?!? *

Sorry but I didn't see anything new or revolutionary about it. It's basically a messaging system with the ability to thumbs up and comment on photos, videos,etc. And groups. In short to me it's nothing more than Myspace meets Geocities.

So I then thought perhaps it's the people that use it making it special. Afterall, there's been a lot of marketing pushing the site.
*NopE* Same dumb fuck bullshit that you see all over the Internet. Idiot men looking for masturbation material, fake female profiles (including mine), 3rd world scammers trying to sell shit or find a girlfriend, etc... etc.. etc..

Conclusion,
I spent several hours spread out over several days and found nothing on the site of use. Anyone that wants to "stay in contact" with me can either 1) Phone me or 2) Send me an e-mail. or 3) Send me a postcard. (I still get and send those when I travel)

I never wanted a FB account, but I caved in and made one.

I have 2 'friends' My son and his wife, and all I use it for is to keep up with the pics of my grandchild they post

Dont use it for anything else, but I think its worth it for what it gives me

using FB only for work ;)

I deleted one account with around 1300 friends because it became a total nuisance. Started a second one, industry only, 850 friends. Then a few days ago FB sent an email asking to send id, to confirm its me, seeing as I was posting as JFK FUBAR. It aint gonna happen, I took my full name off for a purpose on the original one. So I will shit can this one as well and just keep FUBAR - Powered by Advidi:thumbsup

+1 :pimp

fb is the same watercooler gfy is, with less complete fucking morons.

I have an account but i dont post anything. It sickens me. The worst is watching a bunch of girls i went to school with spend hours on there every day posting about animal abuse. I dont know why every female suddenly thinks they are an animal activist just because they figured out how to share an article. I see more gore on there every day than i used to see on ogrish.com. (abused animal pics). Other than that its all kid, vacation and old chicks posting their new tattoos or selfies showing they go to the gym. If i didnt need it for work purposes I'd delete my account in a heartbeat. The only thing its good for is a source of local news.

Unfortunately the animals can't share their horrors on Facebook, they need someone to do it for them, I know it's not nice to see the gore, but at least it raises awareness and makes it more likely that action will be taken. :2 cents:

reading sobers post, it reminds me: i do great with granny dating on facebook

In my experience these types of posts are just photos of animals that have already been treated and are either healing or have died. Whoever did the abuse has already been caught.

These are just "look at me, I love animals more than humans" type posts. Nothing good comes from these posts other than a lazy housewife gets to tell us how she would brutally murder the person who did this to any animal.

I can at least see the point of the anti-seaworld posts, since it seems to be having quite an effect on the company, or similar companies. But posting pics of tortured dogs isn't helping anything. Just a way for them to pass time. Which is OK too I guess, I just don't really want to look at it.

I will never understand why people take pictures of their food.

Never had an account. Never plan to.

I made money on Myspace related websites and I'm picking up some pretty good coin with Facebook, yes it is addicting, but until it helps pay for shit, i'll keep using it.

point, but i like drama ;) So I'm back on GFY!

Like it or not Facebook is the internet now ...

facebook used only for biz

we are FB addicted!

I just checked and I still got that old facebook account I created while in Vegas.

So I tried to hook up a blog to it via Twitterfeed. But when twitterfeed posts to the account all I get is 403 errors being displayed. Is there a solution or a work around for this?

im too weak ..deleted my account few times and got back
