I have read posts on other blogs that talk about the Top 10 Reasons you should avoid Facebook. I laugh at them but it's like crack or alcohol or candy. You can't get enough. You say you'll stay away and stop using it but it calls my name. FB is one of the top 3 internet places I visit each week. I'm usually reading what my "friends" are doing and occasionally write what I am doing. Seriously, I put what I'm doing for a few friends that I communicate through there. But really if you are close enough to me you know what I'm doing or I've texted you or spoke to you. It really doesn't matter if you commented or not, I know you read it. It's virtual stalking.
Yes, I'm nosy. Who isn't? But facebook pisses me off too. Well the people putting their crap out there does. It gets old reading what you bought, or shouldn't have bought or who you're going out with or my favorite: the cryptic status. The vague ones that give you half details and of you ask them about it you never get a straight answer. Those drive me nuts! Those attention craving people who enjoy posting stuff just to get attention.
I try to keep a level head about what I read on there. If I show that something like that bothers me then they get what they wanted. Attention. Whether it's negative or positive. My biggest thorn has been a particular person buying things and flaunting them on their status. Really? Some people might say it's jealousy but I am no way jealous. I guess I could just block them. Because frankly, I could give a damn.
Oh Facebook, how I once loved you but lately.....you have not been a good friend.

I am with you on the love/hate of FB... it's addictive, but it's almost become a necessity!

I so agree with you girl. I have gotten so sick of facebook lately but I still have to check it off and on. I go in spurts. The attention seekers drive me crazy too. I don't get it. Um, by the way, why aren't we facebook friends?
I agree with you!
The status updates that really irk me are the ones that try to guilt you, like it says its dad week, or son week, or BFF week, or whatever crud theyve made up - and if you love your dad you'll post it too! So annoying!
I am not on there very much any more...but there have been some ineresting things I've read on there for sure! B/c of those, I can't completely stay away!
