FWIS3

I was Facebooking and learned that it's generally better for humanity if I stay here, so you walking mistakes are stuck with me.

I think it's the other way around

haha.
You belong in this zoo anyway.
Way better meaningful conversation.
FB is either a circle jerk or flat out war when discussing anything other than pets or recipes.

and landscapes.

I'll use facebook as a storage bin for my renders. other than that I only see it as a social thing and i am seriously lacking in my ability to play nice. But even as old and derped up as I am, I'm loyal. protective, talented and still have a really firm ass.

TMI

Or did you mean ?

dear ikyoto,

please stop fishing for compliments. your inability to play nicely with others is part of your charm. we wouldn't have it any other way.

glad to see you posting,

I'm not dead either.

I'll whine in the usual place.

dear yosh,

please stop fishing for compliments. you and your family are contending with some absolute horrors and few are more entitled to blow off some steam. whining? please don't make me release the flying monkeys.

good to see you posting.

I'm glad y'all are back. I was starting to think this place was coming to an end. Hopefully, this means I was wrong.

As for Facebook, it sometimes reminds me of the old GLP forum - no moderation. The difference is, I'm ten years older than I was when I started hanging out on FWIS, and I no longer have the patience for trolls, so I just give up on "discussions" where people having reading comprehension issues.

I much prefer the way we discuss things here.

But I definitely like the good things about Facebook, so I'll keep it around for that.

Well Hell, if you need a troll, I'll volunteer.

^^^^ what she said

There goes the neighborhood

The other thing about Facebook is that there are things I want to discuss that I don't want all my friends and relatives to see. Facebook is fine for sharing vacation pictures, or seeing the cake my grand-niece just made, but there are some things like politics and dirty jokes that I don't want to discuss with all of them.

And cat videos.

Well, that goes without saying. Actually, I believe that is why the universe was invented.

well I haven't been very active either. For a long time FB served a purpose for our family in terms of making sure Paul was ok during the day.

But.... we had a situation arise where we both lost a friend because we kept a promise to someone else. It hurt like hell. But I cannot go back on promises I made as a minister - it's not that simple nor ethical. Note that we did not NOT keep our promises to the first person but apparently I didn't respond quickly enough even after getting in at 1 AM from a flight that was delayed by both weather and mechanical issues. Sleeping on the rug in phily is not my idea of fun.

Not sure what lesson I learned other than people are not always what they seem even after you've known them for a while.

amen, sister. sometime i'll tell you about my former friend and you can tell me about yours.

My most charming trait is my amazing ability to hold back on protecting the few people I care about, ut i do apparently need to learn that not everyone is a threat that needs to be evaluated.

I don't know which one of you edited my post to add this, or if it was an accident, but don't do that shit again.

Probably Iky. He's blind and brain dead. lol

That was my guess.

Didn't sound like you... But what do I know...

Weren't me. We've got a log of edits we can check.

RULE:NO EDITS BY ANYONE OTHER THAN THE POSTER ALLOWED.

I'm a little surprised that no one has started the counter-thread entitled "Yup, I'm dead".
