WTF is going on in here?

Heh. Just like this place, 75% of it is annoying idiotic bullshit. But the other 25% is important enough to me that I still keep coming back.

Johnny-I am with you!!!!
I do not have one and am trying hard not to cave in. I do not need to know when someone had a good workout, or know how much they hate processed foods, or how much they love Jesus. Also, I teach. I don't want 150 friend requests from 8th graders-even though I can deny it. Had a student tell me he friended me on Facebook. Of course my answer was "How? I don't have a facebook account." Kids were astonished-How could anyone NOT have Facebook. Made the kid log in and unfriend whomever it was. Good teaching moment. With that said-My weather station at school has a Facebook and Twitter account. It discusses weather and nothing else. It talks once in a while too. Stay tough-Johnny. You are not alone. |
I am one of the few people on Earth that doesn't have a facebook page.
**** that garbage. |
I have a Facebook page and I enjoy the **** out of it.
I like to know what's going in the world. It's not just about people's lives, many post links to videos, news, etc etc. |
As it turns out, you can have a facebook page but you don't have to visit or use it.

LOL, I tend to agree. If it's not people telling you about the little dumb bullshit their baby-batter offspring did 12 seconds ago, it's some other self-proclaimed God person saying how ****ing blessed they are - when you know they're lying through their teeth. And now that I have so many job-related friends, you just can't be honest with the world about how the Chiefs community aren't the only ones subjected to bad "ownershit."
So play the game, keep the account and set a reminder to go in every so often and say something nice about the world and how you're thankful for kittens and puppies. |

Most of the times different shit is posted. It's a good way to stay in touch as well. I don't mind it. |
Facebook is like meth for attention whores.

Just post pictures of, and talk in painstaking detail, about your morning BM. Do it every day. I'm sure the suits would be happy to have you shut it down after a couple weeks of that....

You don't have to have friends on Facebook for it to be useful. Use an alias and "like" the pages that interest you. There's some good shit out there.
Some of the pages I "liked": US Carry Conceal Association, Girls With Guns, Daniel Defense, four businesses owned by CPers, Beartooth Highway, Joe Delaney, Derrick Thomas, numerous bands and artists, American Forces Network, many resteraunts, many rodeos and music festivals, Yellowstone Dog Sled Adventures, MSU Bobcats, multiple humor pages, and on and on and on. Your page gets their latest updates, specials, menus, activities, etc... |

But I do see the value and addiction to it when it comes to finding people important to you and doing business as well. It truly is a "double edged sword":) |
I don't understand the knock on Facebook. I'm in the mid twenties to early twenties crowd, and we pretty much use it like instagram. Picture sharing and very little text status updates or even comments. personally, my main use for it is too bitch amd whine every time I get banned from chiefs planet.

This thread was a lot more exciting than I had expected ROFL |
fb is ok to stay in touch with people, the thing about it is you just have to say "no" to befriending people. I get lots of requests but I really try to limit who I say yes to. If I haven't seen a person for 20 years, I'm sorry, I'm not going to say yes just because I kind of knew you in high school.
My quota is around 100-120 friends. The idiots who have 300+ friends get what they deserve IMHO. |

I hate facebook, it's just a place for mom's to show off pics of their babies that I don't care about and what they ate and how they look in the car and in front of the mirror.

I don't get how somebody can love Chiefsplanet, but hate Facebook. Is it the loss of anonymity? Spraying your thoughts on every conceivable topic all over this site and posting them on Facebook are not all that different.

I don't see how people who haven't tried it can knock it. It's like saying you don't like a food you've never tried. How do you know?

FB is kinda dumb and annoying but everybody has it.
So instead of activating, deactivating, ativating, etc over and over. When you get tired of it, you just don't pay much attention to it. I have an account. Glad I do. I post about once a month and rarely check it. It works for me. And people who are annoying are quickly Unfriended or put on ignore. Simple. |

Facebook CAN be incredibly obnoxious, but if you put a little effort into it, I find it hard to believe anyone can really have a major issue with it. The problem many people run into is that they try to make it a dick measuring contest and adding/accepting every person they've ever met. When you do that, you end up with a giant wall of information about people you don't care about.
If you're either 1) very selective of who you are friends with or 2) go through the effort to move people who you don't care much about into your acquaintances list, your feed will be filled with a really easy way to keep up with what's going on in the lives of people you care about. Using groups for people you REALLY want to know everything they're up to (and clicking on that group specifically once in a while) can help as well. |
Stick to the music connections, Noonan. There's a lot of bullshit, but Facebook can be a great way for artists to promote and distribute. Especially lesser known talent.

I just tend to make sarcastic status updates that mock what others constantly post.
like this, "No one really cares what you had for breakfast, how the traffic was on your commute, or the consistency of your shit this morning." I have had a few people delete me after such statuses, which was an easy way of handling some of the obnoxious people who I didn't want to be friends with anyway. |
no 1 cares if you care about their status

Well played. I like it for following the cool stuff people do or pictures they post, especially since I don't live anywhere near where I am from it helps me keep in touch to see what my old friends are doing and access to setting something back up with them when I go home. What gets old is the people who post 2-3 status updates a day about absolutely nothing or are always complaining. I probably post 1-2 status updates every few weeks and pictures maybe once a month. |
I think mine still says Rock Chaulk Jayhawk from last March.

Heading out for some food. Rocking my new short sleeved tee all tucked in. Gonna eat chinese and maybe a walk in the park. The dog will be excited!
