Ah, our 5-8 minute presentation.
Well I guess to summarize my thoughts on social networking in general.
Why?
I definitely see the need, and the usefulness, but today's "children" are completely overdoing it. I signed up for facebook early on just to see if I could find some of my old elementary and middle school friends. To my pleasant surprise I did. It should've ended there. Facebook gave me an avenue to contact them, not that I really had any reason to do so, but sure that was a nice bonus. Fine and dandy.
But, when they implemented that news feed bullshit, that's when I started getting really angry. Yes, angry. I had dim-wittedly forgot to uncheck the email notifications in the options, and apparently everytime someone did something that had even anything to do with me, I'd get a flood of notifications.
"OMG!!! BLAH BLAH ADDED YOU IN THIS GROUP INVITE INVITE TAKE THIS SPAM SPAM SPAM SPAM!!!'
GAAAH!
I don't want to know this, I don't want to be added, in fact how about this. Cancel facebook. But wait! I can't!!. I am now forever a slave to this community that I really don't want to be a part of.
People, stop living your lives on a f*cking webpage. Go do something meaningful, have dinner with a friend or something old school like that.
