I'm just clicking random things on CC to try to get those. If getting stars is linked to Facebook in some way, I'm screwed.2dimes wrote:Drab star!

Had a 60-70 hours a week job a couple of times and don't plan to ever again... unless it's my business.thegreekdog wrote:I have a Facebook account that I'm vaguely aware of. I think I may go on once a month. Here is my tried and true method for not caring about Facebook:
- Get a job where you work 60 to 70 hours a week
- Have a spouse and two young children
- Have hobbies (e.g. writing, participating on internet forums, reading, participating on internet gaming sites, video games, sports)
- Drink beer with your friends instead of drinking beer while looking at your friends' Facebook pages.
The best thing about Facebook is finding out whether girls that were hot in high school and college are still hot (note: the answer is usually no, unfortunately).

Yes. but which bored facebook user are YOU?Army of GOD wrote:Facebook sucks. Just deleted it.
I was tired of all the fucking people sharing Buzzfeed articles.
Good for you. I support you in this decision. I have also done that.trevor33 wrote:Closing the account and forgetting about it.
Anyone else deleted their account?
One the one hand, it's nice to keep in contact with people that you don't see often without having to do a lot of work. On the other hand it's full of stupid memes and other pointless crap that people post all the time.
I don't have an ad blocker otherwise the volume of ads would make the negative list as well.

Lot of Facebook accounts are all about renewing relationships whether it's friendships or old flames. Today's internet sites have ruined many marriages. So, boys and girls, you'd better check out and see what your spouse is up to on Facebook, LOL!Maugena wrote:Good for you. I support you in this decision.

All social media is a form of superficial/psuedo socialization.
I would argue that they mostly have negative effects.
- Enabling attention-whoring.
- Small windows of perspectives of people's lives through pictures uploaded can cause dissatisfaction with your own life.
- Enables people to not actually keep in touch because they "have them" on social media. A real relationship with someone is made with constant, consistent effort and with physical presence.
- Enables data farming of personal information.
- Can destroy privacy all-together.
- Seems to indirectly put focus on your image rather than who you really are.
Those are only a few reasons why it's bad. I'm sure there are other harmful effects.

They give you the option to "delete" it but if you decide to, which I did, they still keep some things.
