Facebook. Good or bad??

Posted by Addi Scott on

I am warning you, this blog post is nothing but me complaining so if you don't want to hear me complain, stop reading!

What is the deal with people on Facebook, really. It seems to me like people think that just because you are not dealing with others on a face to face basis, that they do not have to follow normal rules of how to be a human. People are mean, caddy, whiney and (I am guilty of this one) terribly negative.

We put out there every little thing we do, what we are having for lunch, what a good price we just got on underwear on sale, etc. These are not things that I would normally share with 597 people! Seriously, I don't care what you had for lunch, and I am confident that none of you care what I am having either.

Don't get me wrong. Its a great way to get in touch with old friends that you may have otherwise lost forever. But on the other hand, its a terrible way for old friends to find you that you had finally gotten rid of!

Now granted, I am probably not the norm. I am a Facebook addict. No really I am, just ask Bryan, so I know that I experience things on Facebook that people who go on occasionally do not. Being the addict that I am however, I am thinking about deleting my profile all together. Sure, I could just delete those people that are negative, or clearly don't understand that actual people with actual feelings are reading this stuff, but then I would be accused of being a bad person by said people. Do I care at this point? Maybe not, but I do care what people think of me and I try to be a good person.

Sorry for the rant, maybe I am all alone in this, but if one of you feels the same way, then I know that I am not crazy. :D
