Fuck Facebook and The Nosey Blood Sucking Bitches On It


Right now I need a really good book to escape in. I also need to jog a few miles, while digging the headphones of my ipod deep into my ears. It's funny, the other day I read an article regarding Facebook creating social issues for people. I don't think it's created a social issue for me but, I know that Facebook is just a window for people to peer into other people's lives and get some sort of satisfaction from it. Whatever that may be. People read your your statuses and think they have an idea about what's going on in your life. People begin to think they know you for some reason because they've viewed hundreds of your pictures, and read a few of your notes. Today, I said good bye to facebook. The past few days people may have gotten a few good laughs, sneers, smiles, or frowns from my facebook profile but, nobody ever will again. As addicted as I am to that website, I'm going underground. Nobody will have a chance to peer into my life through a web page and think they can give a full analysis of my life as if they've known me for years or talk to me everyday. I'll admit, a lot of the drama or reactions from things on facebook we create it ourselves. The internet has now become a medium to air dirty, and or clean laundry and a way for other people to fold and put that laundry up. Not only minutes after I deactivated my page today I get a voicemail from a friend. Not a voicemail of sincere concern. It's a voicemail regarding why my facebook page vanished. After about a few seconds of ranting regarding MY facebook account. I got one sentence of let me know if you're ok. The main concern wasn't truly if I was ok or not. The main concern was that my business wasn't able to be viewed via Facebook. That made me put a lot of things into perspective. It's sad because the reality of that situation is sickening. These social networks actually frustrate people when they can no longer get a kick out of peering into someone else's life. As much as I love technology because of it's capabilities and the opportunities that it allows I'd love to see the day when all of this shit just shuts the fuck down. Then what are people going to do? How about live normal lives like people did before all of this bullshit was created. For the record if nobody is genuinely concerned about me they will no longer know about my business or what is going on in my life. Period. That goes for family, so called friends, associates, old school mates, whoever.

You're correct... I have been saying for a while that I wanted to execute my social networking accounts... I hate people being in my business (especially if I don't want them there)... this one idiot in my department was talking about 'triangulation'... how she reads peoples wall-to-wall conversations... I thought 'wow... let me block this b..."

I hear you homie... some of us are the celebs... and others are the paparazzi... and as a star I guess we have to deal with it by pushing those cameras out of our faces or by smiling...
