What is the Purpose of Facebook?

[garebear]

Is "unfriending" someone supposed to be considered a big deal or something?  You make it sound like a death in the family or something?  What would lead to a potential "unfriending"? (wouldn`t it actually be de-friending instead of un-friending)

I like arguing with you because you stick to the important stuff.

There is no purpose its for attention whores.

China itself is not a terrible location, but the people are awful since they have grown to such immense proportions.  What is the world going to do with all of them?

Obviously Facebook is of great importance to you.  So much that you conduct your "social gatherings" on it in "private groups".

When people die, do their Facebook accounts continue?  Why do people continue to post on Dead People`s Facebook pages as if they are going to magically reappear and check the page?

What is the "world going to do" with Americans who are over-consuming at an astronomical rate?

Its impossible to consume what is not available or what is not bought.  America was at its best without China or anything to do with China and I think its time for that kind of policy once again. 

Of course curtailing them a bit would also be a good idea as their population is out of control.  They are pretty worthless anyways and really don`t have any entertainment value for America or the rest of the world for that matter so nobody would miss them.

I agree with that.  I don`t see a purpose for it other than as a gimmick to obtain information.  Why would anyone take Facebook seriously and post their life details on there?

Haven't you posted your full name here, as well as pictures of yourself and occurrences in your daily life?
What compels you to do that stuff? Was anyone on here a part of your social circle before you started posting here?

Was all of that an attempt to gain or exchange info on fitness and bodybuilding? Or was it simply that you, like most living organisms, enjoy being social and an easy way to do that is by hanging out where people are gathered, whether it is in the physical world or digital world?

[garebear]

Yep, FB is out to glean all personal information it can so that it can take over the world. You super secret CIA operatives on these boards better be worried.

Now that the MAN knows that John Johnson likes Led Zeppelin, world domination will be easy.

The government had no idea about you guys before FB. You were living totally off the grid. No credit cards, drivers licenses, tax returns, NOTHING. Now they know, thanks to FB.

Its more to do with my fascination with manipulation with a given stimuli more than anything.  I enjoy studying humans and their environment and have been accused of being a data gathering robot, which I must confess, is more or less correct.

Give me full access to your Facebook account as a "friend" and I can guarantee you in a a few months I can have a complete profile on you, regardless of the frequency of your posts.

Your tribalism disgusts me. True story.

You're not any sort of robot. You're a regular person who completely understands and appreciates why facebook has become popular and started this thread in an attempt to sound cooler-than-thou.

I'm not interested in being personal friends with you.

I could get all that information from you on this site anyway.

My point is that people think they're some kind of a big deal, when in truth you're just 1/7 billionth of this huge mass. Nobody cares.

Honestly, If there was any race other than the human race, I'd go join it.

Exactly my point and precisely why I do not care for China or anyone in China.  Their population is too high for no good reason and would serve the earth better by it being lessened.

I rike where this thread going!

I like Facebook, good way to stalk people lol


but I'm sick of old people on Facebook and their stupid status updates!

[No Patience]

China itself is not a terrible location, but the people are awful since they have grown to such immense proportions.  What is the world going to do with all of them?  

i think asians will be our demise...i think some highly populated asian area will produce the birth of a virus that mutates too fast for our medical system to handle...do to their population, it will spread at staggering speed before detected allowing transport to every other part of the world(well,every part with economic status) and whipe out human life...we are not going to die from a war, or asteroid, we will die from virus because of our belief that we all need to overbreed...the only humans that can survive are the extremely isolated tribes if there are any left when this happens....MRSA's second or third cousin is going to be our demise within the next 50 years

What exactly is a status update?  MySpace I think used to have different Smiley Faces to indicate a mood one was in on a particular day.  Is this the same thing?

Did you know that because of the Chinese, soon all of the American Ash tree species will be wiped out due to a wood boring beetle created in cat feces by Asians.

I agree.  Breeding in all countries, (United States included) should be stopped for the most part if the human race wants to have a future on earth.

well, to be simple and to the point, I think it is a precurser to a credit/ passport/ drivers license, general i.d. I f you believe your government actually has your best interests at the forefront of their strategies you are a fool.
