This is part of why I have my family on a more restricted list. Once I posted a quote from The Producers while watching it with a friend: "I'm not going into the toilet. I'm going into showbusiness!" tagged my friend and the movie blah blah. My mom comments "I hope you're joking." I get messages from all these people/family I've never met but they allegedly changed my diaper once or twice when I was a baby telling me how acting isn't a very wise career choice. Like gawd

My adulter-than-me family members don't use facebook, and the rest of them are pretty all right.

plz add me too btw jinx i couldn't search you up

I have everyone on facebook. If they don't get along well then whatever. I don't let drama dictate my life. But then again, I don't really care about what anyone says or does on facebook. I barely use it. And if anyone annoys me, I either tell facebook to stop giving me their updates. Or tell it not to let them see my updates. Whichever works best. If very desperate, I have little qualms about unfriending someone completely

I don't really have people from online on my Facebook, except a very small handful of people. The rest of my friends list is all friends, family, work colleagues and people I went to school with. If anything, it's useful for offline relationships. Some of my family live quite far away, so it's a good way to stay in touch and see what's going on in their lives. It hasn't affected my offline relationships negatively in any way. Everybody on my Facebook either knows me well enough or I don't really care what they think. :jess:

I don't have a Facebook and neither do my family so it's caused precisely 0 problems. :shobon: I get that it's a great way to find out about people's lives, but then it's also a great way to find out they just went to the gym, just ate a sandwich or happen to like this image macro from 2009. I find that just straight up talking to people lets me find out about their lives without any of the inane stuff.

To each their own though, I wouldn't judge anyone for using it... though I get a hell of a lot of funny looks for saying I don't use it. It's come full circle now though, when people give me grief I say "It's 2014 bro. Who uses Facebook now other than grandmas :smug: What's your snapchat?" and that's that really.

Not gonna lie, the only reason I have a Facebook is to keep in touch with family members who are a billion miles away. I didn't use it at all while we were all still in the same household, but now that my siblings are moving out and my parents are divorced (lol) and we're all spread out through several states I've started using it.

If my family wasn't on it I probably wouldn't be either!

You're ahead of the curve, Psychotic, just like Hipster Kitty. :p

There's one thing I don't do that Jess does on FB is have work people on it. I do have one girl, because she's just awesome & one other I used to work w/. Other than that, I try to keep work & Facebook apart. My workplace doesn't need to know all my likes & dislikes.

Since I tend to not share too much super personal stuff, I have plenty of online friends from another place I frequent. It's the 21st century, a lot of friendships are & will be forged via the web. It's a lot harder to find people w/ similar interests irl than it is online.

BTW, I am in the EoFF group, if anyone wants to add me...

Oh, don't get me wrong - I don't have a ton of work people on there! Just people I would consider friends. :jess:

I really don't post much on facebook at all unless I want to try to share and promote something a friend is doing. Otherwise, I'll occasionally quote or post a funny video to a couple of friends.

I just message back and forth with friends I can't talk to much otherwise. Even that isn't happening much anymore really. So, I don't really experience drama on there. There hasn't been any "drama" there directed to me since high school, and that was after my girlfriend at the time and I broke up. Internet had been down at my house and then I went on a trip to a church camp or something like that, so I hadn't changed my relationship status. Got back from camp to messages from her seeing that my status said I was in a relationship and she was really upset that I was already in a relationship or something. A bunch of messages like that and then one final one saying "oh, you are out of town. My bad. Sorry." Fun stuff.

Of course as you have other means of stalking people.

Facebookの上で大佐を追加

One thing I find amusing there, and it's quite true because I think most of us just genuinely want people to be happy, whether they're with someone or not, and if they seem to be indicating "this change is good" (happy picture) then we're supportive. But there are one or two where this happens

*changes profile picture to them and partner*
109 people like this

*changes profile picture to them alone*
109 people like this

Repeat ad nauseum as their on/off relationship goes on and off every few weeks :p
Thing is, it makes sense. Of course you want a profile to be truthful, and people do have on/off things as they figure things out. Though I can't help wondering if unstable relationships warrant some kind of delayed Facebook update action.

I tried searching too and ended up finding this:

Attachment 58147

"Vivienne's Homes for Hope and Healing"

Interesting...

A lot of people have added me on Facebook lately. I'm not sure why since I am dreadfully boring on FB. At least on Twitter I'm vaguely interesting.
