Facebook Obsessives. STFU.

Recently, there has been a spate of people, friends of mine, and in some cases that's 'Facebook friends' more than real-life friends, and by that I mean that I know them more (not 'only') on Facebook, than in real life, who seem to be taking Facebook far too seriously, blaming it for everything awry in their lives.

Ironically, these people who are signing off from Facebook, or refusing to sign up at all, or taking long leaves of absence, are, in my opinion, the ones guilty of taking it far too seriously. In my opinion THEY are the ones giving Facebook far more attention than it deserves. It's just a website. Manage your time better!

As an exile FB is great for me for keeping in touch, seeing my family's photos and so on. I enjoy a couple of the games on there, chess particularly, and I cannot understand why so many people blame it for anything at all. It's just a website. A medium. Blaming the medium is like having an argument with someone over the phone, and blaming the phone.

Personally, I think it's a kind of trend to 'dislike' Facebook. A bit like it's trendy to disown 'lol' and other acronyms of the ilk. "Oh, that Facebook, I'm spending far too much time on it, I'm gonna be cool and sign off. Everyone will think I'm forward thinking." Fuck off. Lame attempts at bohemian exista (I just invented a word, deal with it) are, simply, for cunts. Oh, you thought this was a wordy diatribe? That there would be no calling people cunts? You were wrong. Don't blame the fucking medium. I hate those cunts who will ONLY wear Birkenstock sandals, who will ONLY have an i-pod with 85000 songs on it (mine's got 500, songs that I actually like, and some new stuff to check out – I'm not a fucking memory man), who will only wear Stussy t-shirts. They're the CUNTS who'll be signing off FB and telling the world what trend-setters they are. Incidentally, these are the same people far-too-fucking-cool (they think) to use 'lol'. Get it straight – they are the fucking lamoes, not you.
