Got asked on a date at work today.

[Cerberov]

@RillaAh, there's the difference. For some, the spinning centrifuge of human drama is a grand black comedy, as entertaining as a train wreck where all the passengers are clowns, and colorful suits stained with various bodily fluids, their thuds upon the ground accompanied by gratuitous honking.

For me, it's like that for about five minutes, and then just gets tedious.

1. It's awesome I'm not the only one who saw this thread for what it is, no offence taaj.
2. Hank is totally spot on about facebook. I mean hate it for good reason past #cool2hateFB

@scribz

In my defense, I'm married and have no social life to keep up with massive party invites and such.

[KnightShade]

I can see the arguments against it beyond dumb statuses. If you post a lot it's easy to start looking to it for validation, if you don't post much you're going to compare yourself negatively to hundreds of others. Not to mention the people who take tonnes of profile pictures, I see your dwindling likes. I use it for keeping in touch with the family and the two or three people I hang out with regularly, as well as knowing about boxing socials, but still somehow waste time with wall walks. You've just got to be mindful about what you're doing with it, but I think there's something of an externalisation of your self image for some people so I guess that's a valid reason for them to reject it.

[Vilageidiotx]

People who reject Facebook just puzzle me. Do you not want a handy, centralized hub to organize your social life? If I had to manually talk to every friend whenever I want to ask if someone can help me with something, or to invite them to a party, I'd spend way too much time every day getting that stuff done.

@Vilageidiotx

As long as texting doesn't have Facebook's event system, it'll never be good enough for me.

[Awson]

And I thought this thread was about Taaj bragging.

Look at this guy over here.

...going to events.

[Hank]

That has less to do with my social life than you think. I can't speak for the rest of the world, but in the city where I live, concerts, raves, parties, expo's, etc. are often promoted through Facebook's event system. It's a very useful way to keep track of my cultural interests.

@Hank

I just rely on people to tell me things or invite me in person because otherwise even if I get an event invite on Facebook I say "maybe" and never go.

Someone invited me to some nerdcon in Detroit but I probably won't go because muh other obligations.

@Dead Girl

I can't imagine keeping track of events in Wyoming is that difficult. They have, like, one event a year. And that is just gathering together to watch shit blow around in the wind.
