I thought it was just me that realized that Facebook was probably the best and only way to deal with relatives one doesn’t want to deal with except for the occasional holiday and funeral.
When I visited my relatives in the next time zone over, I was always getting the subtle hint that it was best that I go back to my time zone on the coast.
I rarely post on Facebook, BUT… it’s a great place to: rapidly scan through relatives and acquaintances pictures of pets; recipes for stuff you’d never make; meaningless posts, attempts at humor or political outrage; family photos of grandkids you’re glad aren’t yours; religious platitudes; and cutesy selfies !
Facebook really does reflect our personalities – perhaps just not in the way the think is does.
I got an account on MySpace to keep up with the kids, who immediately switched to Facebook. I got on Facebook to keep up with the kids, who immediately switched to SnapChat.

I don’t have Facebook. I have no need or desire to keep in touch with those relatives.
Facebook is such an utter waste of time. If I want to keep in touch, I pick up the phone and dial. I actually SPEAK to the people.

The same with my cousin J.K. He has Facebook, he just doesn’t have to “face”anyone.

Love the family pictures of kids as they grow up, but not the friends of friends of friends comments. That is a waste.

Don’t spend much time there because I’ve managed to unfriend almost everyone due to their constant political BS.

Tired of this meme. Facebook is exactly what you make of it. Your bad.

I just cleaned out my FB contact list. It’s so much better now that I got rid of annoying people.
