Okay, I really enjoy staying in touch with the outer regions of my wider friendship network through facebook. BUT (and there is a big BUT) I DO NOT enjoy having the political and social value views of others shoved down my facebook throat

*chuckle* Was down in Denver & CSprings this weekend; on Saturday, went to lunch with an acquaintance from about 10 years ago and his wife. Partway through lunch, she started on a mini-rant about Obama (even though she'd voted for him, due to Fear Of Palin); I was able to shut that conversation down Right Then and There, but I hear ya.

This is exactly the reason why I want personal stopwords for the internet.
