So ahhhh yeah deleted FB …. To be honest it’s a complete shit show and waste of time but eh …. Who fucking cares haha
Never had it, but I increasingly hear stories of people dumping it. I welcome them back to the real world .So ahhhh yeah deleted FB …. To be honest it’s a complete shit show and waste of time but eh …. Who fucking cares haha
I was a minority anti-FB person when it was all the rage. I got a call one Sunday afternoon asking me where I was and ‘why I wasn’t at Shannon’s birthday drinks’. Me: ‘Umm, because I didn’t know about it’. Them: ‘It was on Farcebook!’ Me: ‘Well there you go - if people can no longer be bothered to call or text then then I guess I’ll miss a few events’.I had Facebook back when it started like most people my age but abandoned it maybe 15 years ago apparently I still have a page as I never actually deleted it but haven’t been on or would even fathom the password or anything for 15. It took mates about 10 of those years to stop sending me invites to things on there. Don’t know how many times I had to say mate I don’t check Facebook just text me.
I had a few of those in the day when my thick mates couldn’t get it through their head. Sitting at home on a Saturday nice evening and thought I wonder what the boys are doing might give them a call only to have the phone ring at that exact moment which Matty G saying in a half pissed voice “where the fuck are you bro?”I was a minority anti-FB person when it was all the rage.

It was like when people who worked for me didn’t get answers to issues and threw up the ‘But I sent him an email!’ excuse. That’s not an answer - pick up the phone and find out. These ‘tools’ are making us dumber and lazier by the day.
Makes a mockery of the term ‘social’ media doesn’t it - it’s completely anti-social. I remember asking a colleague once what she did on Friday night (saw her by chance on Saturday) - ‘Was at home Facebooking with a bottle of wine’. Me: ‘wouldn’t it be better to share that wine with a mate at the pub?’ I accept I’m minority but I just never got the point. If I want to be at home it’s not ‘socialising’ on the interwebs.I had a few of those in the day when my thick mates couldn’t get it through their head.

What at home I was just about to call you to see what you are doing? Then you can hear all the boys screaming and carrying on about where the fuck is Chris all pissed as.
That use to annoy me no end.. We invited you on Facebook it’s been on Facebook fora week I’m like dude didn’t we speak like two days ago why not mention and how many times like seriously how many many many times do I have to say I don’t go on face Fucking book.
At a pub? But then you have to go outside and you might see people...Makes a mockery of the term ‘social’ media doesn’t it - it’s completely anti-social.

I do have Instagram so I can’t talk and im getting over it like I did early Facebook years and this is not just for the sake of sounding cool I am really getting over it but Facebook and who am I to have any expertise on it because I haven’t been on it in years and years but I see my missus all she does is look at pictures of babies (I know I know I know I can read a sign) but it seems like it’s just chicks posting pictures of their “lol perfect” lives and other people going ahhh I want that life. Even though yeah their life is not perfect. I guess that’s the same as Instagram which is why I’m pretty over it. No one gives a fuck about your holiday in a Byron luxury hotel your tits pretty much out and your spoilt shit looking son who’s shit arse name is Winter the poor ****.Makes a mockery of the term ‘social’ media doesn’t it - it’s completely anti-social.
