That's exactly what it's there for, so see how old & fat old schoolfriends have become

Great quote, sums it up perfectly

There's also a quote from the title track of Martin Orford's album 'The Old Road'

You've got the power to talk for hours
To friends you've never seen
Since you started to live your life
In a made up world
On a cold black screen
That's why I'm taking the old road...




Any by the way - yes, I am on Facebook, and am enjoying it at the moment (even if I am a little addicted to 'Bejewelled'

Now I FINALLY know what King Crimson were singing about:

I do remember one thing.
It took hours and hours but..
By the time I was done with it
I was so involved
I didn't know what to think.
I carried it around with me for days and days..
Playing little games

And then.. looking at it.

Yes. You see, women use it. Go against the grain all you want, but eventually they'll want to check your profile out and you theirs. It makes things easier.

Not that I'm not always teetering on the edge of nuking it. I just got rid of a lot of old, indulgent personal crap which no one really needs to know or care about.

I wish I hadn't been so opposed to Facebook in high school, it would have made my life much easier. But it's mostly irrelevant to me now so I don't use it much.

I joined for a couple a days but quit because I was getting automatic hook-ups with people from my old high school, this school is in a death-trap town and most of my old friends who stayed there are in really bad shape (drug damage, parolees, welfare etc) and they are to be avoided and I was getting pictures of women from my old high school who are even older than me and they are wearing tight dresses and trying to look hot and it was gross, unexpected and not asked for, I quit immediately.

I do and check it every single day multiple times a day because is a good way to stay in touch with some people who don't live in the US (which is, ALL of my best friends)... It's under my real name.

I absolutely refuse to become involved with Facebook in any way.
 
Same with Twitter.

I do, but could happily live without it. I'm rarely visiting it.

I have a profile because someone forced me into getting one.  I regret every second of it.
