I am on Facebook. I keep in touch with old friends and out of state family members through Facebook (and a few badmovies.org members). I am also in a few groups (mostly comic book groups, movie groups and humor groups). I was in some groups that I got aggravated with and quit, mostly because people were always insulting each other or turning EVERY conversation into a rant about political, religious or social beliefs.

I don't do groups but I should note that Facebook is really trying hard for me to join groups. They always suggest low key, small, indie, obscure, off beat, rare, non-commercial film and music groups. Sometimes I'm really surprised at what they dig up. I assume they are based off my Internet searches though.

What I really find odd about Facebook is their "People you may know" suggestions. They are people I don't know, they aren't even related to people from my friends list. They also suggest I hit up strangers that just joined Facebook. They even promote it as such: These people just joined Facebook. Do they know Facebook is abusing their profiles?

I believe Facebook hits on keywords in posts and, of course, distribute it.
I really don't know, because I quit a few years ago. It was getting real weird. My brother Glenn in California is a Nazi, and he was commenting about really insane s**t, even if I was just posting a song.
Plus... I just didn't enjoy talking to people I went to school with who I never liked.
f**k all that. I would rather talk to you folks.

I like how people use avatars of them when they were young- they are afraid that they will look old and ugly. I am old and ugly. I could care less.
And the lips pursing thing is one of the most disturbing things that wriggle into my brain. It's like they are imitating Paul Stanley of KISS. And flashing gang signs and hold up a handful of dollar bills.  They never even seen a gang, and the money thing....f**k it. Yech.
 I don't feel the need to document my every thought and action. And take video or pictures of it.

Also, some people use recent pictures but photoshop the hell out of them. I know a few people who are thin on Facebook and then when you see them in person they are about 40 pounds heavier.

Gotta say that most on my friends list have stopped with self-presentation over the years. It is mostly down to bare essentials - a quick genuine, sometimes out of focus snapshot rather than posing at any given (planned) moment in a selfie manner. Though I still have one or two friends who cntinue to play dress up . Kind of awkward when you see a colleague at work every day and see her again acting like a model on facebook after work. Some just need the attention I reckon.

Major Facebook/Instagram outage today that's lasted for several hours. Not sure what to make of it. Should be interesting to hear the explanation. Very bad for business, stock is down more than 5% which is a 7 billion dollar decrease!

I browse through it every morning.  I've got an uncle who posts political meme's, a cousin who posts Minnesota Vikings stuff and is also interested in video games (big yawn on both counts), and another cousin who posts selfies of herself going to fabulous places with fabulous people (being her cousin I know it's complete BS lol)  I'm a member of a few groups that have funny memes, beautiful cars, and the "countdown to Christmas"  Smile

It's really a complete waste of time.
