Technically Xax, we're using social media right now, here on FFXIAH.
True, to a degree, but it isnt the same level of idiocracy that is facebook or myspace. Also isn't nearly as riddled with adds and requests. I am not going to log into FFXIAH.com and find 20 requests for me to play some random game. Here, i can check the forum, post if i feel like it to talk about a subject at hand, and leave without being bothered. Facebook is just useless if you dont post updates constantly or play their games and other stupid crap.....
Sorry, just never got into facebook or the other crap.

I usually block or partially block people that post everything about their day on facebook. I don't give a ***that you went from your house to the gas station and back to your house. Maybe I'd care if you saw a space ship on the way.
Personally I love FB because I live almost 900 miles from everyone in my family and all of my friends I grew up with. It's way easier to read little tidbits about them, and they about me, than it is to call or text the hundred of them that there are. Especially now with being pregnant. I have dr appts twice a week, every week to make sure everything is fine. It's WAAAY easier to pop a post on FB about him being healthy than it is to call everyone that cares.

I agree with you bluespoon and magnuss, facebook can be useful to keep in contact with friends who you dont get to talk to that much. But so can Skype. I prefer skype because if i want i can post a messege by my name so if people are curious, they can read it and know whats up. I can either call people or text them from skype, either computer to computer for free or from my computer to american phones for like 2 cents a minute, which is a godsend when stationed overseas.
Maybe it's because i'm a guy and i view things differently. If i want to keep in touch, every now and then i will call you or try to reach out to you, and my friends would do the same to me. If i don't care.....well i just wont be contacting them now will i?

Oh I agree, fire and acid pits in the game!
I like skype for talking to IG friends, but I can just use my phone to call anyone else if I want or need to speak with them. It's so annoying having my mother on facebook, and I know this sounds awful, but facebook makes it so I get away with calling her less. (She called me literally crying yesterday at 7am because she couldn't make her facebook work. All she had to do was read TWO words on the screen and she would have known the reason and how to fix it.)

Hey, I'm a guy too (last I checked), but without fb, I wouldn't have been able to get in touch with my old high school friends half a country away. So there's that.

Facebook also lets me see all those *** from highschool that loved to torment me for no reason. It lets me see how miserable they are with their 3 kids and no baby daddy and a ***job while they can see me living comfortably with the same guy for 5 years.
Love it.

Fair enough reasons guys. Like i said Facebook is good for some people, just not all. For me it isnt good. But still, more power to you guys ^^ glad you got into contact with some old friends.

It's a game called Dark Souls, I guess I should have mentioned. Decent game I've been having some fun with lately. Isnt that the game that has a stupid sharp learning curve? Sorry but everything i heard about those games makes me not want to play em for fear of rage quitting and smashing my controller.
You sir are a bigger man than i

This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
