Tom the Dancing Bug, IN WHICH we take a peek at Gavin Smythe’s very typical Facebook page.
“You know you grew up in Trenton…” is favorite nostalgia page for wife Natasha.
Frankly, I think I’m more like Rose than Sophia.
Golden Girls. Orange Man-children.
No no it doesn’t. I only will friend someone I have physically met in person and can confirm it is them. I hide EVERY advert that comes across my feed. I also mute all “article” posts that are not explicitly from a source I know.
Example: if I see an article item from Bill Maher or John Oliver I read it through and may share it from there.
Facebook is a useless tool that I may stop using. The ratio of real posts from friends is about 1 in 10, and those are buried in a sea of Shares and Sponsored Content.
I wish Facebook was a more useful tool for keeping up with my friends’ lives. Now it’s just a noise generator.
and it sure doesn’t go to 11.
These ones do.
I should be smug that I’ve never had an account, but I’m sure facebook know all about me from scraping all the data my friends have.
So basically I get all of the privacy-stealing with none of the benefits. There is some benefits right?
LMAO at the privacy settings.
Fb is a superb organiser but the trouble is i’d rather not sign away all my rights in perpetuity in order to be able to use it.
Is that what FB looks like? I was already glad I never signed up, but now I’m also wondering what the big deal is.
But, why don’t the engineers make 10 louder?
Cubert J. Farnsworth: That’s impossible. You can’t go faster than the speed of light.
Professor Hubert Farnsworth: Of course not. That’s why scientists increased the speed of light in 2208.
Yup. That’s me.
