Facebook
Since January I've gone from about 1,000 friends to around 350 or so by March. I got rid of what where obvious fake account, people who didn't speak english, talked god too much,and anybody who kept asking me to be in their farm, etc. Then in the last few months, I've come to realize that I never liked about 75% of the people who I do know and just because I knew who they were in 7th grade means that I liked them or now. These people got chopped. My interest in the facebook has waned dramatically. Most of my IRL friends don't post that frequently. Some of my closest IRL friends don't even have an account. It got to the point where I check it once or twice per week. Look around and see that Laurie is still posting song lyrics, Arthur is spreading peace and hugs through the internet, John is linking every news article he sees. Over and over and over. Frankly, I really just don't give a shit about the social medium anymore. I deactivated my account today. Big fucking deal.
