Why I dont do facebook !

[Sailor Steve]

Rilder, I don't do networking either, and I only honor friends requests, both here and there, from people I actually know. I only joined facebook because Neal started a Subsim page there.

That said, you can look down on me and call me "unworthy" all you want, but I repeat that if I had not joined my long-lost daughters would never have found me and I wouldn't know about them or my grandkids.

Giving your opinions and reasons for not joining this or that is fine, but I certainly don't need you or anybody preaching down to me and calling me "unworthy". On the other hand, I don't think Facebook is anything special; just another tool.

I live 15 minutes from the town I go to school in and it's always hard to find gas and the time to stay in touch with my friends, being an only child I find I strive for communication.

My girlfriend is also away, the only way we can communicate is through skype and facebook (for when skype goes down, or when I'm not home)

I have friends say that my status updates elicit chuckles from them and their friends, my page seems to be built around comedy. people never ask me for rides anymore because I update the status on my gasoline and thus I never get bothered unless my friends have money.

ohh the convenience!

Sorry I must of been unclear. I was talking about those people that will go and tell me to get on facebook, and get mad if I don't add them on it, as if this social networking site is somehow an important facet of our friendship.

My apologies. It was late and I was tired and in one of 'those' moods. I didn't mean to overreact.
