#Facebook - Spend weeks talking about life & being ignored. Comment on others' statii and be largely ignored. Mention depression stemming from being ignored and be ignored. Have emotional breakdown and finally get attention - from 2 out of 67. Mention I'm deleting my account - 4 out of 67.

@scribus Contrast RDN - Jump on & say "Hello," get replies. Spill emotional guts, get hugs. Worry about heinous privacy violations? Nope. If only everyone could be a brony.

@scribus Reason why I don't have a facbook account. This is so much better.
Friday, 24-Jun-11 16:34:05 UTC from web-
@gentlegiant it is. i havent used fb in weeks. theres no point if you have noone to talk to.
Friday, 24-Jun-11 16:36:11 UTC from web-
@pinkiepielovescupcakes i have the opposite problem. I'd rather use twitter/rdn more and fb less but most of my contacts are only on fb
-
@pinkiepielovescupcakes I do have people I would talk to, but I either see them in meatspace or text them or any other number of methods of communication. So, it's redundant on that front.

@scribus That's Facebook for ya. My status' are usually just joke with really bad puns and they attract a decent amount of attention.

@extremedash Im going to go out on al limb and say a good amount of the facebook population has the same IQ as almost all YouTube commentors.
Friday, 24-Jun-11 16:37:31 UTC from web-
@gentlegiant pfft so true
Friday, 24-Jun-11 16:39:22 UTC from web -
@gentlegiant That's a fair assumption. I enjoy Facebook though. Since I have moved over a dozen times (I'm literally not exaggerating when I say that) it's a great way to keep in contact with all of my friends from the past places.

@gentlegiant Youtube commenters are so moronic. I got a comment the other day on one of two Phineas and Ferb-themed pony songs, saying something to the effect of "this kinda sucked, the other one was great though" and I'm just like: why would you even post that?
Friday, 24-Jun-11 16:44:22 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin Compared to the average YT comment, that's constructive criticism right there.
Friday, 24-Jun-11 16:45:29 UTC from web-
@scribus Believe me, I get much worse.

@thelastgherkin I got a couple saying that i was retarded for saying that they were wrong about a back ground flag. It was the Australian flag but they thought it was englands flag because of their flag sympol being in the corner. You are ONLINE! You can look that stuff up!
Friday, 24-Jun-11 16:49:38 UTC from web-
@gentlegiant The stupidity of some people really just rrrrrr.
Friday, 24-Jun-11 16:54:53 UTC from web -
@gentlegiant I've had to smack my hands to keep from getting into it in the comments before.

@thelastgherkin This reminds me of this webcomic http://is.gd/P8U91M

@broniebrown That's exactly it. The other day I spent half an hour typing an argument, but then I remembered I was a brony so deleted it and went with love and tolerance instead.
Friday, 24-Jun-11 17:02:15 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin Good boy! Loving and tolerating the kiwi out of the internet since October 2010.

@extremedash Yeah, I've gotten there, too. Once, I just posted "Obligatory daily 'I am still alive' post."
Friday, 24-Jun-11 16:49:44 UTC from web-
@scribus I would like that status. That's pretty funny.
Friday, 24-Jun-11 16:52:51 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@extremedash You have my permission. ;p
Friday, 24-Jun-11 16:54:07 UTC from web-
@scribus I don't think I have you added on there... My status right now though is "What did Pikachu say when he saw Ash fall over a cliff? Pikachu [that's all he can say]"
Friday, 24-Jun-11 16:56:03 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@extremedash Oh, I thought you meant you'd like to use it. #derp Well, TBH, I'm deleting it on Monday as something of a birthday present to myself. Provided I can make it through their flaming-razor-hoops.
Friday, 24-Jun-11 16:57:44 UTC from web-
@scribus Terminating a Facebook account is a pain in the mangoes.
Friday, 24-Jun-11 17:00:45 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@extremedash Yeah, I expect as much. Tried to delete my MySpace once. They said they'd send a confirmation e-mail, never did. Not even in my junk folder.
Friday, 24-Jun-11 17:07:21 UTC from web-
@scribus haha MySpace lol what a joke.
Friday, 24-Jun-11 17:10:28 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@extremedash Yeah, I know... Only signed up because I got sick of asking, "Did you get my e-mail?" only to hear, "Send it on MySpace." Then, of course, everyone fled to Facebook. =/ Well, I'm going back to e-mail, and they can deal with it! #technoluddite
Friday, 24-Jun-11 17:12:48 UTC from web-
@scribus In five years it'll be "I got a Facebook, then everyone fled to RDN."
Friday, 24-Jun-11 17:13:55 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin In that case, I will have been here before them!

@scribus I remember everyone had really obnoxious songs on their profiles so the second you went to there profile it would start blaring music and scare the crap out of me.
Friday, 24-Jun-11 17:17:48 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@extremedash I mostly recall the terrible glittery connection-killing RAM-hogging nightmare-fuel backgrounds that rendered the entire page impossible to read.
Friday, 24-Jun-11 17:29:22 UTC from web-
@scribus Haha yes! MySpace was so bad! Tom was smart to sell it when he did.
Friday, 24-Jun-11 17:33:12 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@extremedash before MySpace, we had geocities
Friday, 24-Jun-11 17:34:36 UTC from web-
@ignaesia Before we had MySpace we had real friends lol

@scribus Haha, Myspace is literally dead. News Corp has said they'll completely close it if they don't get a buyer soon. They've had no serious offers for it.

@extremedash That's the worst joke ever.
Friday, 24-Jun-11 16:57:54 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin It got 3 likes in 3 minutes lol. That's Facebook for you.
Friday, 24-Jun-11 17:01:26 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@extremedash I'm going to steal that and use it as my status, just to see what happens.
Friday, 24-Jun-11 17:02:40 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin It shall be a social experiment!
Friday, 24-Jun-11 17:03:56 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@extremedash One like in one minute!
Friday, 24-Jun-11 17:04:39 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin Haha see the dumber the status the more attention it gets. It's probably because it's like a beacon of comedy in a world filled with mangoesy statues'.
Friday, 24-Jun-11 17:08:46 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@extremedash I've only had two likes in seven minutes... :/
Friday, 24-Jun-11 17:10:58 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin I've stopped at 3 likes but we will give it 24 hours and see what the results are then.
Friday, 24-Jun-11 17:16:29 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@extremedash That we shall! *gentlemanly hoofshake*
Friday, 24-Jun-11 17:18:52 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin Hmm, yes indeed. *gentleman hoofshake*

@scribus What is this book of face of which you speak?
-
@colfax It's an internet web site that allows people to pretend that they're being social.
Friday, 24-Jun-11 16:46:05 UTC from web-
@scribus To be perfectly honest, to me reading anything on facebook is like spending time with that one really old relative you barely know and all they want to talk about is all the medical problems they have...
-
@colfax For me it's a lot of, "I already knew that because we actually speak," "Games I will never play and must block," or "people I only 'friended' to keep the peace - and must block."
Friday, 24-Jun-11 16:53:01 UTC from web-
@scribus That's why I never bothered getting an account, heck, I only registered with twitter just to follow a few people, beyond that it only has a link to a blog I rarely ever update.
