The Absurdity of Facebook


Guest

Recommended Posts

Essentially, it is isolating people. Yes, they're talking to people online but there's still no actual human interaction which is kind of the point of humanity to be social so that personal evolution can occur through learning off others. Also, most of Facebook is filled with idiots who go on any bandwagon just to seem more likeable (Adalia Rose, Ban the "cancer is funny because people die page", etc). You can seem like a totally nice person online but be absolutely horrid IRl and vice versa. As Wynn said above me, people think of themselves as somewhat important on Facebook. One of the most common cases are those overly dramatic people who post statuses like "OMG! my life is so bad. Nobody talk to me!" then they get angry when no one asks what's wrong. That's my 2 cents and it's probably wrong anyway but oh well.

Also, that OP made me laugh.

Am I the only person in this world who uses it for only good purposes?
Namely contacting old friends and chatting with them once in a while and doing nothing else at all.

Yay for logic. Pretty much the only cool thing Facebook's worth being on for.

Using, or complaining, about anything else is useless.

But what about the hilarious aspects to ridiculous people?

What can I say about Facebook that isn't already said by people on Facebook? A social networking site based off of corny little gimmicks and old societal interaction traditions. Its use wanes as it is flooded by wannabe hipsters and fools with about the personality of Bella Swan. These pointless people constantly follow every group that gets its way past "Like if you Love Jesus!" and into "Spread awareness for this!" The conglomeration of people seem to think that others could give a flying crap about what they think and what they go through. The site allows for relationship panhandling and pointless rhetoric spewed over and over again in what may like to call "Drama". The site is just full of people willing to "Like" Heins Ketchup or whatever damn food they eat everyday but found it suddenly important to notice on Facebook. Constantly flooded to the brim with photos of the same girl doing the same sexual position in an attempt to be "Hip" and actually feel like they are in some way important to people. While Facebook is overrun by people who rant about Facebook but continuously go on Facebook. The men there do the same little "Shar if u tink Im sexy" thing, treating Facebook like some dating site. Facebook's uselessness is only joined by Mark Zuckerberg's winnings as he makes billions off of stupid people who have nothing better to do than talk about how they are brushing their teeth at Eleven at night.

My brother and I have witnessed several occasions of my mother arguing about religion on Facebook. Her main reason for sparking a quarrel with somebody who believes otherwise being "because it's on my Facebook," she answered to my brother's question. My stepfather follows, getting involved and they invest emotion into something childish contrast of belief. It's her decision to use her time to frustrate over it, as it is her decision to use Facebook, though it really shows how a facet as disposable as a page online is over exaggerated in significance.
