I look forward to reading future posts!<br />P.S.I have a niece-in law with 20 month old twins who will always let you know via good ol' facebook when/if the twins are asleep/pooped/peed/crying/smiling etc etc. Really? My question is how the hell do you squeeze in that kind of facebook relationship when you are taking care of TWINS?

@Jerry: I don'...@Bossy Betty: Why, thank you!<br /><br />@Jerry: I don't think you're a stick in the mud at all! Now that facebook has shown it's true self to me, I feel that you are truly enlightened....and dare I say it? Ahead of your time in NOT using facebook!<br /><br />@Pat Tillet: Hahaha! I do agree that secretive stalking is one of the top reasons to keep facebook around!<br /><br />@Erin: Oh, I love your comment! I wish to officially add this as a part of my blog!<br /><br />@DG: Funny thing is, I never used twitter. I heard a really funny Lewis Black sketch about twitter the other day and it reinforced my decision!<br /><br />@Toriz: Yes! That's exactly how I feel! Like, ummmm...shouldn't you and your minutes-new fiancee be going to get nekkid somewhere in celebration instead of FACEBOOKING it?!? What has the world come to, where technological bragging is more of an reflexive instinct than sex?<br /><br />@Chicken: Thanks! I'm kinda wishing I never started facebook....although like I said in the comments before it is good for stalking people...muhahahahaaaa!<br /><br />@No One: Facebook has shown me that most of the people I know are either supremely boring, unhappy, or completely full of themselves.<br />However, out of that there are those people that have hilarious short status updates, but those are few and far between.<br /><br />@Jordan: Did I ever tell you the story about how Chris and I wanted to see if we could get 'lube my orifii' on those personalized M&M's? We thought there would be two options, either we would get these ridiculous M&Ms or we would get an AWESOME letter from M&M stating that our request was denied. We got the M&Ms which leads me to believe there are some flaws in the way they screen their requests. <br /><br />@Southern Sage: This is true! Whiny bitches surround me! Good thing you haven't figured out facebook. Then you find out that people you know and love are secret online whiny bitches. Not fun.<br /><br />@Entre Nous: Connection without connection. It's a new generation of pretending to care!<br /><br />@Another David: You can block the games! It was a revelation when I figured it out!<br /><br />@Amber: Thanks! I might put you under the category of the peer pressure facebooker? :) Only got a site because people hounded you incessantly about being on facebook? I'll bet you those are the same exact people that whine about you not responding to you on facebook even though they see you face to face on a regular basis. Yep. Those people. They are the horrible horrible spawn of facebook.<br /><br />@Raineyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00305222246286475224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8013703355091030682.post-2545002756207846892010-06-02T10:22:48.532-04:002010-06-02T10:22:48.532-04:00I'm glad that you and your computer are better...I'm glad that you and your computer are better.<br /><br />I think the group I fall into is the "apathetic/lazy facebooker." I have an account, and apparently tons of friends, but I've only logged in once or twice over the past 4 months. People send me messages and friend requests and it takes me months to summon enough energy to visit the site and reply.Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01533509179274926434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8013703355091030682.post-30943633838819075012010-06-01T14:13:09.774-04:002010-06-01T14:13:09.774-04:00the hello/goodbye people are the worst. i don'...the hello/goodbye people are the worst. i don't see them as often on fb as on twitter, but they still annoy the hell out of me. and the games? awful. i don't give a shit about your stupid game, stop inviting me to play them. and i hate it when people invite me to like 10 different games! i didn't take you up on the first nine, what the hell makes you think i'll go for this one?!Another Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07555722546982081280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8013703355091030682.post-91314597708370086782010-05-29T15:37:38.028-04:002010-05-29T15:37:38.028-04:00I cannot understand the FaceBook thing either.

Somehow it makes no sense to me that one would think one is 'connected' socially when they post one or two sentences, and possibly a boat-load of photos. The alledged conversations of this type amount to a rash of disjointed remarks and I fail to see how this is 'connecting' anyone.

I mean, if it's that grreat, concentrate on enjoying it. If you want to share great things with your friends, fine. But it can wait. When your partner proposes, the first thing in your mind shouldn't be, "OMG! I have to tell my online friends!" It should be something like, "OMG! Yes! I'm so happy!"Torizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04965005679599352165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8013703355091030682.post-20523776945828974012010-05-28T06:25:06.173-04:002010-05-28T06:25:06.173-04:00I am not a facebook fan and have recently had the ...I am not a facebook fan and have recently had the same kind of separation with Twitter.Dee at Pedestrian Palatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13462948525190291080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8013703355091030682.post-5331920367158471482010-05-28T00:02:08.238-04:002010-05-28T00:02:08.238-04:006.

The stalkery facebook user... they never update their own status, photos, etc so you sorta forget they're on your facebook until 3 months later you see them in person and they know EVERYTHING about your life. (Well, you did post on FB to start with... but somehow it seems more equal when they post the same amt as you.) My husband's boss does this. It's creepy y'all. I would un friend him but he might fire the hubs.
