Perving is the reason I signed up for an account ;D The problem with being on FB is that people who you don't care about or have just met once send you requests to be friends and it's impossible to turn it down without looking rude. And then you get updated of every trivial BS that they post and get even more friend recommendations.

The "like" feature is terrible and I fucking hate it. Some bitch posts that she's thinking of having pancakes for breakfast and there'll be 7 people who like that post ::) The woman in the OP is right about the signs, but she missed a major one - if you see someone having over 50 pics of themselves (some of my friends have over 300 photos in their profile :-\), you don't need to get their updates to know they're an attention whore.

Don't forget that every unimaginative bint's "favourite quote" is that pathetic one by Marilyn Monroe. ::)

Everyone's narcissist these days. Either it's learned through social conditioning, or people are misinterpretating mental characteristics.

Shit fuck ass. Of course men brag. It's how men operate. Of course women self promote themselves through pictures. That's how women operate. The words like "narcissist" or "pedophile" have really lost all of their meaning. Thanks, hysterical idiots.

I checked my contacts and crossed a whole bunch of them to be an acquaintance instead of a friend, that way I don't have to read everybody's crap and only a select few can see my private albums. Much better this way.

How do you change someone's status from friend to acquaintance? If they see it, it would be just as rude as turning down a friendship request, lol. I'd love to do it for some of my "friends" though, don't want to know their game scores and what article they just read or how they're in some restaurant or whatever.

LOL, which one's that?

Just go to your friends list and where it says "Friend" next to their name you can change it. They won't see it.
Then you can choose to make your pictures only available to friends and not acquaintances etc..

I hear ya man, I have a whole bunch of people on my facebook I never see anymore, but you guys are old so I'll just blame it on that.  ;D

Thanks, I should look into the settings section more, lol. I don't mind being friends and getting in touch once in a while, I just don't care to read every single thing they post and every update about their activities, which is like 4-6 times or more a day.

I may be a narcissist, but there's a lot worse category of these who post irrelevant shit like "Oh my baby got a third tooth today, yay!..", then a week later "Oh my, baby''s got a fourth toothie!!" and stuff like that.. Obviously - I unsubscribe them instantly (why these fucks that barely know me/have basically no common interests try to get into my friend list, anyway?), it's just that overall awareness of how "simple" majority of people are kind of baffles me.. You have a decent lad in reality, then he goes interwebz and you see he can't even put a decent sentence togehter, not to mention uploading of stupid youtube vids (from a "funny" category) or personal/private stuff for everyone to see.
 FB is really good for one thing: to have a good look at persons "head" so to say. Someone who has a clean profile, everything in order (no viral "likes" in the "Other interests" and stuff like that), a decent eloquence, taste of music/movies/books is probably a pretty intelligent and bright person in the reality too, contrary to a "Farmwille" spammed profiles (it means - such a person doesn't really have much interests if spends playing that shit day in, day out. I don't talk Battlefield or stuff, but these stupid time wasting flash games) ridiculous "Likes" and pics full of dog or baby (I mean - a pic or two - why not, but when it becomes a "Diary" - a morronometer goes on alarm instantly)... Oh, the "Profile for two" is the best one (when, usually - a hubbie and wife shares one acc. Lmao..). Dumb bitches shine exceptionally bright. Scroll a few pages of the wall and if the bitch is dumb - you'll be aware of that instantly (not like many of them are intelligent anyway, but for atlest the assessment of the level of "whoreness" it's pretty good. Good girls won't post pics half naked and generally will be "subtle" with their FB experience. ).


No meltdown.

How about the new anti status status trend?  ::) Something like "IM WRITING SOMETHING STUPID AS MY STATUS HOPING THAT PEOPLE WILL LIKE IT SO FEEL LIKE I HAVE SOME SORT OF LIFE AND SOCIAL RELATIONSHIPS" - then everyone goes on to like that one as well.

Lolz sounds like the desperate rationalization of a narcissist. Please no trying to convince me your really as great as you think you are.

Narcissist are fucked, I can't stand this argument to defend people who think their gods. They're like chirstians, who by defintion try to force their beliefs of them being special gifted lucky whatever in everyone else's face. Once you see the connection and realize there's no rationalization with the delusional it becomes old hat very fucking fast.

The real problem isn't that there annoying, but they generally fuck up the game for everyone else. They distort the reality and obsess over finding new ways to manipulate the rules to make themselves look good. The credit crisis/ economic turmoil is rampant, with the negroe on a trip obama, and the bankers thinking their gods with money when there not. Our world is fucked, and what really gets me is these folk get their influence on everything, as they're basically walking billboards who's only goal is to promote themselves via manipulation of anything worth while. .

what's wrong with narcissists?

Too self-involved

Meeh. I see these threads come up regularly and I don't see the problem, it's just complaining. It's a product, it's free and nobody has to use it if they don't want to. And if you don't anyone simply don't visit their page. You can also with one click just block their content from your view ???

You people worry about other people too much

My point.

anyone who has a facebook account is a narcisist. Fact is everyone is nowadays.

Everyone is to some degree and humans probably always have been. Arnolds a appreciated narcissist you might argue. Getbig has a lot of narcissists that worships their own bodies.

It's all good.

Only have a few fb friends and most are close ones. Also there are many people I know and didn't befriend because they suck.

anyone wants attention. those who are anti facebook could love the looks they get in the gym for their body and on the way for the nice sportscar they drive.

some people just take facebook and twitter too serious and post everything of their "life" on it and even posts "check ins" for where they are at the moment.
i heard that people get depressive because of facebook to see another person seems to have a life. lol nott

I deleted my Facebook account about two months ago. I'd been on there for about three years and originally it was just meant as a basic social network between me and a few work colleagues. Then it got popular with the masses and spiralled well out of control with people who I hadn't seen in 10-15 years from my school days wanting to be my "friend" when they never used to say shit to me in the first place when I knew them before. 

Over the last few months I'd eventually become sick of seeing the same attention-whoring comments and status updates, not to mention all the pics of women with their duck-face pouts and pre-menstrual ramblings, emotional outbursts and the like, so I took myself off it. I only ever used to post there to wish the odd person happy birthday and my only photo was the same one you in my avatar on Getbig but once people started tagging me in on photos without my permission and messaging me publicly so the whole world could see it became a bit much. I've never been one for seeking attention and I'm a very low key person in real life so the whole concept never really suited me.

Now that I'm not on it anymore, I don't miss it and my life is better off without it.

Getbig is the only social network I need.  8)

It only seems like they have a "life", most of those people are lonely as hell. I know of some women on facebook, who by their pics are "social butterflies", but if you knew them, they are pressed to get married, can't find "Mr. Right", and are needy as hell...one of them got married and now is miserable, but her pics say otherwise.
I also decided to do what gh15 said, pick a couple that has just got together and watch the relationship implode---and like he says, it only takes 180 days...it's funny as all get out.
