Please don't take it serious if they show it as an unfriending, that's just fBook's way of getting a little revenge as you leave.

Friend Tracker tells me your account is inactive, and Facebook gives me the option of unfriending you.  I don't understand what the point of unfriending you would be, since you're already gone.

I've never quite understood that place and absolutely despise their habit of constantly adding "features" that work around the information lock-downs you set in your profile.  I've spent years reminding myself to go in every couple of months and update my security settings, I finally got sick of it.

You can find me on LinkedIn, I have to use that as I will need to secure gainful employment before the end of the year.  It would be foolish of me to enjoy this sabbatical for more than 9 months.

Facebook on the other hand can suck the zits off of my hairy white ass...

Yeah, saved me the trouble. When I reach back to the middle 90s, my first thought is often W95 and the Microsoft Full Employment Act, making simple things so complicated and stoopid you need a full time army to fix it. The easy money now is scraping FaceBook for potential employers and divorce attorneys.

I fuckin' loathe farcebook.  I detest it.  I hate it with a purple burning passion heretofore only afforded to the likes of sarah palin.

In fact, facebook is the sarah palin of internet websites.  All it does, at the end of the day, is remind you that you are acquainted with people who 1)have no common sense at all, 2)only want other people in their lives so they can download their ignorant ass problems on them, 3)is always praying about something.

which part of that is supposed to be fun?

Well, I have to admit - opportunity to occasionally bang an old hook-up was always fun.  But after the first time I realized it took far too much effort and was easier & more exciting just to head down to the church parking lot and find a new hook-up.

I've wound up with a few friends because of my hobbies who're always posting religious shit.  I scroll past that shit, post things critical of conservative Christianity, and ignore their birthdays.

It's not like I'm going to keep them, I already have a magnificent mate in Melons; it's sort of a catch and release policy.  The difference is that the churchy ones scream jesus's name when they beg you to fuck them as opposed to "daddy" or your actual given name.

You have to admit that "Oh Jesus please fuck me" is kind of kinky fun...

Never bothered to join FB in the first place.  When it suits, self keeps abreast of the vast friends/family network via the wife's account.

I am not going to say FB is all bad, but in the end, I am with Em. I debated the little good with the whole lot of bad and decided FB was not for me. I don't need to be a part of a website which mines information from it's millions of members and sells that info to the highest bidder.

What I love about FacelessBook is all the 'friends' that want to one-up you.  If you post anything remotely referring to anything good that has happened to you, you're sure to receive within hours some 'friends' who have had even better things happen.  Make a post about your kid who learned to swim?  Right.  Within minutes you see a post about a parent whose kid just won the swimming state champs.

You're just NOW teaching your kids to swim?  I taught mine to swim before they were even concieved.  And, i'm not gonna mention how they could figure the area under the curve and devine the existential meaning of oneness, all before they could ever talk.

Then they discovered facebook.  Now they live in a dog-shit encrysted apartment above a haitian house of ill repute.

Those useless cliches like

and

http://www.gasolinealleyantiques.com/cartoon/images/miscellaneous/ziggy.jpg

that are supposed to make you feel sympathy and unity with the posters but just make you throw up a little instead.

Here are the latest 3 from my feed:

All posted within the last 3 hours. If I could just block what my friends share and not what they actually write, it would be a much nicer community.

Goob, I share your pain, but just remember, it's the thought that counts.  Don't dwell on it, it's just another bump in the road.  I recommend that you stop paddling against the current because this too shall pass. Patience is a virtue, so keep a stiff upper lip.
Hugs and Kisses,

When the last election was raging (for two years), it suddenly became apparent to me that i have many friends and family members that are complete idiots.  So i quit FB.

This was my last posting.  'I don't hate all of you, but i like you less than before i knew your intimate thoughts on religion and politics.  Considering the lack of thought you display, I am surprised our gov't is even functional at all.  And don't get me started on how you've corrupted religion.  Please STFU and refrain from giving your opinion on anything.  If anyone has a problem with this,i will be happy to explain it to you in more detail, in person.  Goodbye.  Please do not pray for me.'

So far, every single person copied on that has acted like they never saw it.
