Facebook beating

[JFootin]

I have a facebook account, but I use it mainly to keep track of family birthdays and events. I don't post anything much except an occasional encouraging reply to a friend/relative.

Not a member of Facebook. Have absolutely no intentions of ever becoming a member. Seems to cause more problems then anything. Members are giving up way to much personal information.

^^^Exactly why I don't have anything to do with FB!^^^

What's Facebook. Is that anything like MySpace? Are there any pictures?

[Bawanna]

It gets even uglier, I know what Facebook is, what the heck is MySpace?

MySpace is kind of like Facebook, only it seems to me more of a "I'm all that and bag of chips" type place to show off. You can post pictures, and song lists, and other stuff you are into. Kind of an It's "all about ME" type deal. Or at least that's what my impression of it is.

met a divorce attorney the other day. I asked him how was business. He said it was good. I asked why given this economy. He said it is one word, "facebook". Seems old flames, and highschool crushes like to reconnect using FB.

Not a member myself but I just got an account for the wife. Thanks for the tip knkali.

Not sure what the big deal is, other than the fact that some people can't differentiate between destructive pests and their loveable pets.

Oh well . . .

Kahr has deleted the bulk of the apparently tasteless comments "due to profanity" used by the posters. My mother always told me that profanity is usually used when someone's vocabulary was too limited to express a thought and is a sign of limited education and/or limited intelligence.

Admittedly, I get pretty stupid every time I hit my thumb with a hammer.

Before or after... You hit your thumb.

Certainly, after. Arguably, before.

Tuscon,
You and I may not think that this photo is big deal. I'm pretty sure that you and I also know someone who may be offended by this. Some are offended by anything guns. We can't do anything about that.
Do we care that some otherwise middle ground person would see this and form a negative opinion about guns, shooters, hunters?

BTW, I was trained by experts in the proper use of swear words in the US Navy.

[Bawanna]

Some are no doubt offended by pressure cookers now too. They cause violence in their Utopia. It's time to grow up, put down the bong and taste reality.

We live in a violent world and violence begets violence.

In simple terms it's ok to shoot people as long as the right people get shot and there are many deserving people right now.

Yeah, pretty much here. I can keep up with the extended family and see pictures of the kids. I guess it's kind of like mass emailing so everybody see it. I just bought a vehicle and used it to converse with the salesman, but he is also a friend. I never post anything controversial more than what kind of chocolate I think is the best or something. I really don't like using my real name but kind of have to for friends to find you. AND pretty much anybody can search for anybody. I like the idea of an alias, like maybe my cat or one of my World of Warcraft characters.
I don't use it like the "kids" do but I find it handy.
As far as the controversy goes, there's always plenty of naysayers out there. And squirrels are good eating!
