Almost everyone I know has a Facebook account, mainly for connecting with friends, messaging, sharing pictures and more. But creeps make it a point to enter into the mindless clicking world and tap on to someone's open profile as if you've known them since your diaper days. They follow them by seeing all their pictures, friends’ comments, and some of hot looking ones in the pictures or comments in the next tab. They rate on the hotness scale and enter in the imagination land in no time.
Facebook has its own tools for catching up with people who mean important to you. The tool status update indicate what's on your mind, so as to know what's happening in that witty, pleasurable real-time window of your friends' life and not about 'I'm gonna tell you every detail'. Frustrated Facebookers found solace with the check-in option but not very long they realized the 160 character status update was replaced with the 'merry go round' options. Long Live Zuckerberg for adding the Hide tool and avoid mundane on daily activities.
Facebook also happened to be a gaming zone where amateurs became chronic inviters for playing mafia wars, collecting farm-ville gifts, to support a cause or birthday calender and to the worst hit to play quizzes. You would probably mean well to have fun but 9gag is a better option. People get addicted and spend eons of time in the empty scribbling world.
Not very long before when the Like button was introduced to chop off the stupid comments of 'hahahahahaha, some lolzzz, woww and awwww (a non-human perfect feminine expression)'. One way it led to poor non-verbal skills, most of whom whether understood or not but liked the status just because it was from a George Clooney persona. Plus the Like button also gave us another set of weirdos who like their own posts. Liking your own posts (whether status updates or pictures or comments) is the height of identity crisis. FB has it's own set of self-obsessed people who desire constant feedback on their lives. (Seeing how many people liked their pictures, how many actually comment and think Gosh, I'm so sexy.-They need a reality check)
And yet Facebook remains feminist. Have a girl update her picture or a status update and there'll be atleast 40 likes to that. Guess if the guy does that?? 4 likes on the photo and "get a life dude" on the status. But ladies do realize, the only reason 30 guys liked your picture is because they think Facebook is a popularity contest and you're losing it.
What you make out of Facebook is a one way ticket to addiction for some of the common behaviors (annoying yet true) :

What you make out of Facebook is a one way ticket to addiction for some of the common behaviors (annoying yet true) :
- Update the status more than twice a day and then check every ten minutes for how many people liked or commented on it (Facebook's like a bachelor-pad refrigerator - you get bored, keep checking knowing there's nothing in it)
- If you stepped out, you check the page from your phone
- More than 500 friends, half of whom you would have met just once or may be twice or sometimes never (you add them because you have common friends or feel just like sitting in a jail - sitting along and getting poked by people you don't know)
- Change your profile picture more than a 14 yr old girl
- Delete or hide things from your profile page so as to look you spend less time on FB
- Update every time something happens related to sports, news, weather or even politics for some rare reasons (News travel faster on FB compared to any other news channel or even telling a woman)
- Set it as homepage or is the most visited website in your bookmarks
- If you ever checked your Facebook page while reading this, you're an addict.
