diary of a facebook stalker

[mintenergy]

So I know I don't post a lot on the personal front anymore. I tend to drift about in my favorite communities and butt into my flists' personal posts when I actually have something relevant to say :) But despite my seeming decline in LJ activity, I DO still love this place. Hearts!

But you know what I don't love? FACEBOOK. Facebook sucks fuzzy

Oh man, that guy is ridiculous. If I were you, I would change my privacy settings so that non-friends couldn't message me. And then maybe de-friend him. Or at least put him on limited profile. Yeesh.

I'm glad people agree and I'm just not being overly-sensitive. But he's seriously wigging me out!

I actually de-friended him last night. I should look into changing my privacy settings like you suggested too, though. Thanks :)

Firstly, I am so glad to hear from you! <3

And this "incident", I find it absolutely annoying and creepy. And did you say that you don't know this guy at all? o_O Ugh. You know, I don't have fb --even though most of my RL friends have-- but I just don't see the point of it... I find it only feeds our narcissistic/voyeuristic tendencies (maybe I am biased though, it may be useful to keep in touch with friends). It's funny, I have never cared very much about my privacity on the Internet but stories like this make me think twice about it, because it's definitely scary.

THANK YOU LJ!!!! For being a place where I can converse about things that interest me, have intelligent discussions, share music and art and have fun with fellow fans.

LOL. This is how I feel about LJ. I love my flist :)

It's always great to hear from you, too :D

I hardly know him at all. We went to the same church for about 3 or 4 years but never talked. That was 20 years ago... O_O

I find it only feeds our narcissistic/voyeuristic tendencies

Precisely. You just hit the nail on the head there.

Lj is so superior it's not even funny. My only concern is that people probably once said that about facebook as well when everyone was still on myspace. One day we'll probably be flooded w/ crazies here on LJ, too :/

BEX!!!!!

Seems like we've both been MIA.

First off, YES to the love of LJ. And boo on Facebook. I personally find Facebook rather annoying (Twitter ranks way higher on the hate scale w/ me, but yes, I have one) but it's really the best way to share photos, etc. Mostly because the people who know me in real life have an issue w/ fandom. But I digress.
I can't believe that guy. What a jackass. And you can tell him I said so.
*sigh*

So how are YOU?????? I've missed talking to you. I really have. Also, I need to share w/ you some of my latest projects...eventually when I get around to fixing my computer (on a stole one right now) and quiting my job (yes, i'm going to do it!...unless I chicken out) I will upload photos for you to see! Reply or email (or you could add me on Facebook! ahahahahaha) anytime, my love!

*clings*
cheers.

Facebook is Fail. I don't know why I stick around. I don't have a twitter and am a little intimidated by the whole thing!

I can't believe that guy. What a jackass. And you can tell him I said so.

LMAO

I've missed you, too. I lost most of my ability to get on LJ, so my time here is pretty limited. I'm totally going to message you my facebook. After all, I I like you a lot better than most of my friends there LOL So I definitely want you to add me :)
