peer preasure. and headdeskery

I think I just got myself a Facebook account. Why did I do that? Will I actually put it to use?

I'm vaguely annoyed with myself, don't even know why... anyway. Will see if it doesn't get itself deleted before tomorrow, in which case, I'mma go find you!!!

Um, who has a Facebook account around here? (or who doesn't)

Aw, maaaan, you went and joined the-F-word cult! *whines* Am I gonna be the only one without that bloody thing? End of the world, everybody knows but me, 'cause it was announced on Facebook. *facepalm*

No, I remain strong in the face of peer pressure. Let them find me the hard way-- mobile phone or e-mail! ^_~

Me me me!!

Ok, I was one of those, too. Those people who go around thinking: "Why do I need a Facebook account for??" And ended up creating one, just as yourself, due to peer pressure. I must admit it's pretty funny... I've befriended a one Jim Beaver, can you believe it?? He's pretty cool...

I must admit I draw the line when it comes to those stupid addictive games, like Pet Something, or those games where you buy your friends, 'cause all of the sudden you get a notification saying: "So and So just bought you for $2"... it doesn't make me feel cheep... at all. *note the sarcasm*.

I'll add you... but I don't know how... I'm listed as Sol Mk Cardin... see if you can find me!

Hahaha, the real question is, who doesn't?

Zo, you're just nuts, you can wait it out as long as you want but you're gonna be there.

I was one of those... didn't need another account to handle or for friendships, but I gave in and I do love it, for a couple of things, like the privacy, whoa, the privacy... and for one, people, most of them anyway, don't fake identities, you use your real name there and stuff, you can find people you've lost in touch with (minus point: people who you don't wanna be in touvh with find you too) nobody can see your profile if you don't want them to, etc, etc, etc... so yeah, I like it.

I have one. I don't see my close friends and family very often, they're either really busy or interstate. They're all on Facebook so I figured I'd do it.

I hate it. Haha. It's too busy. All that application shit, and being notified whenever people comment, whether it's a comment to you or not. It all seems so useless to me.

The only joy I get is the photos of my niece nad nephew as they grow. I'll keep it simply for that.
