    I finally QUIT!

    I quit Facebook that is!! I was spending way too long on there and getting way too pissed at friends, family members, co-workers for BRAGGING! Every time I logged on, I would see that a friend "ordered a brand new car" or another that "purchased a new $400K house," or "just signed my kid up for the most expensive private school." Perhaps those are updates to some people but to me they are just bragging and down-right TACKY!

      Facebook and myspace used to be localized to just high school and early college aged kids. It should have stayed that way. I deleted mine once my mom got a facebook page. Everything stops being cool when 50 year olds are doing it...

      Me and my wife both got rid of our "online presence". It was cool for a minute but I am tired of it and don't really care what aynone is doing with their day or what their updates are.

        That would drive me nuts too! Luckily, none of my family can afford a $400k house...except maybe one cousin. The rest of us have normal houses...you know, the 3 bedroom 1.5 bath type of places. :P

          Where I live 400k would not bet you a 2 bedroom 1 bath house in a pridominantely illegal alien town.

          Your 3 bedroom 1.5 bath house in California would average 800k depending on the size of the yard and how close to the ghetto you want to be.

          I hate my life.

              I have never joined myspace or facebook just to be a contrarian. I love the look on peoples faces that never really used the internet before facebook when I tell them I won't join.

                  I'm terrible at keeping in touch with people over the phone, so Facebook is pretty much the only way I stay somewhat in touch with folks I don't see often. I lived halfway across the country from most of my friends until recently and I still have a few friends scattered across the country, so I probably won't be giving up Facebook anytime soon. MySpace, on the other hand, is pretty much dead to me. Facebook just has a much cleaner interface.

                      I have an account but I don't think that I've used it in three months or more. I don't like it and will delete it eventually.

                      I think the site would make a fortune if it continued how it was originally intended.

                          The new layout is horrid. I'm telling you, all that blank space on the sides will be advertising soon. It's gonna be Myspace all over again.
