You were spending that much time on Facebook that it took up time where you couldn't do things with family & friends?  Then I'd say you had a Facebook addiction.

I agree, Just gotta keep in mind that when i get on FB  bad things happen so its not worth it

Facebook is a nice tool for some kinds of business, particularly things like Real Estate.

Plus its great for keeping in touch with friends over long distances. Ive found people I haven't talked to in years through Facebook.

Yeah I've found friends on there that I thought I'd never hear from again in my life, like just yesterday I found an old friend of mine from high school that I hadn't heard from since 97, I mean without Facebook I never would have gotten to talk to him again.

Yep same happened to me too. Lots of people connected who I didnt remember existed. Then they were stuck in 'friends' list and I had nothing to say, nothing in common with them. I followed remarks of their pathetic lives and wondered if ever there was going to be something actually interesting. Then all the negative stuff started - fb worms, phishing, news of infected apps, ads that knew your fb identity.. Swooooooosh down the drain it went.

FB is ok and I only use it to keep up with friends and family from all over the world. Costs less than phone calls and mail these days. Plus I only get on about three or four times a week total.

You'd be surprised how much FB can profile you, and that information is definitely shared/sold. It blows me away how much some people put out there and how easily it can be used against them.

ahhh come on, you know you love watchin the drama unfold...

anyone hear about the Facebook Page "Beaver County Hoez", i live in Beaver County and know 5 people from the page. if you didnt, someone created a page and were posting picks of promiscuous girls from beaver county until it was brought to the attention of the local news and the page was then deleted by facebook. Subsequently there have been 4 additional pages made. The day after it was shown on the news, that was all that was talked about at school though and made some quite interesting convos.

I created my accound last year to play the airline game. Now it just sits there as i dont play the game and i hardly ever get on. If im on, im just creepin... lol

Not really. My wife does facebook and she's 49.

Its just that once you reach that age its expanded from a small group picking on you to complaints about life and the world in general.
Its short its gone from "he/she's picking on me" to "Everyone is picking on me"

I may put one up for business cause people keep telling me it heps my web presence and is overall good for business.

But on a personal level. I look at it this way. Almost anyone I've wanted to keep in touch with in the last 30+ years. I already do.
Anyone I think I may want to hear from from and havent stayed in touch with. I try to remember why I stopped being in touch with them to begin with and usually remember a pretty good reason.
Anyone I'm currently in touch with... Well, I already am in touch with. So what do I need facebook for? They are only an email or phone call away from anything I care to share with them.

There are a few people. Like less then 10. That I wouldnt mind knowing what ever become of them. But thats about as far as my curiosity takes me.

Stay on the boardwalk.  Don't try to go to the "local" bars and stuff out behind the Casinos, or YOU'LL get a rude awakening.

Just sayin.

Tried telling my son that. But he got turned around and ended up there anyway.
Fortunately One of the locals warned him and his friends that it might be in their best intrests to make their way back to the casinos.

I think the term was as my son told it to me "Boyyy's Yall dont want to be hanging out around this area." Then told them in language I cant repeat here what might happen if they continued going down the street they were on.

He told me it was definately one of his "oh S%($T" moments

My observation has been that it's especially the elderly who get victimized the worst with Facebook. They're naive towards the internet and do not understand that private things do not belong on a public forum like facebook. And they do not know how to treat requests in there with suspicion, they fall to every scam possible just because they think they might offend someone by refusing the half-foreign-language request the friend knows nothing about lol.

I think its rather cool. A buddy of mine who moved to Colorado when I was in 7th Grade is back in Texas and I found out after finding him on facebook. It's good to keep up with old friends and new friends, and seeing what people are doing. Now, with that said, I don't really post or anything else, so I guess I do rather good at avoiding the facebook drama.

When are you leaving?

Just brewed yesterday but I could arrange that perhaps, depending on when you are going.  Takes a good month from brew day to drinkable beer in bottle but the last 2 weeks of that is bottle conditioning so, in theory, you could take it right after bottling but wait 2 weeks til drinking.

I'm right outside Philly.  If you make it here, you can just have some.

Honestly, my friends stay on the computer looking at facebook listening to people tell them how dumb they are.(why they think I'm there friend is above me) Anyway, the only reason I have a facebook is because I get to read stuff and get medals and comments from Machinima and fans. The point is facebook to a good amount of people is useless. (TWITTER TWITTER TWITTER)-(Im on AH forums making a reply thats about to be flamed)
