Facebook. - Kingy - 08-24-2016
Don't like it.
Really really don't like it.
Haven't been on for about 3-4 weeks and can't bring myself to go back to it despite it's best efforts with emails and reminders.
So, in conclusion.
I don't like Facebook.
At.
All.
I feel better now having shared that with my multitude of friends on here .....................

Who did you upset?

No one (x2) ... honest!
[rant mode]
Just fed up with so much drivel on there.
People feeling the need to re-invent themselves claiming to be achieving things that they clearly aren't capable of.
Idiots trolling and arguing constantly with anyone when you know they wouldn't normally raise their voice in real life, let alone target someone with abuse.
People giving advice when they have little knowledge on the topic/ law they are commenting on. So much to that their advice is often irresponsible or dangerous.
Shouldn't forget the open bigotry and/or racism either.
The list goes on.
I'm just sick of it all and am very reluctant to immerse myself back into the festering FB sewer.
Tbh the only thing I've found 'positive' on FB is some of the groups I'm in. I've got some useful info from groups and, in return spent time putting a bit back in to them - but that positive is far outweighed by the negatives.
I wish Facebook would just fook off and die. Sadly the 'Jeremy Kyle' generation will not let that happen.

Alas, something about Facebook has allowed it to stick around far longer than any other social media platform. Which is a shame given that MySpace was good for music. I typically use it for the messaging, keeping in touch with people that I don't want to have my email address (and I can hide from when necessary
) but rarely post. I don't see why so many people have the need to post what they're doing every minute of every day."I'm at the gym #workingOut" - #NoOneGivesAFlyingF**k
"I'm having sushi #cultured" - #HopeYouGetFoodPoisoning
"I'm having my forth child #happy" - #YetAnotherDrainOpened

Ha ha.
Don't forget the hugely annoying selfies and pathetic videos uploaded by those involved in the latest FB self promotion shite. Think the last one I saw was videoing yourself doing pressups for 22 (?) days. Who in the right mind wants to see some unfit fecker thrashing up and down getting their sweaty, red sex face on every day for three fecking weeks?! Eughhhh.
I'll keep up my one man protest until I either need to get some info from one of the groups or I need to go on to the company FB page. Hopefully hell will freeze over first, taking Facebook and its braindead disciples with it.
In the meantime I'll just chat to myself on here and bemoan the fall of 'forums' as I much prefer this format.

... Add Strava to the list.
Twats in cars and electric bikes taking KOMs will be the death of Strava. Got sick of flagging the cheating dick heads.
Plus a feed clogged up with turbo/zwifting tossers who won't go outside because it's too dark/wet/cold.
. MTFU.
