Sometimes feel I'm a right miserable old ba5tard (45) as I'm not on or ever been on fb.

My buddy of the same age is always on there sharing what he fecking cooks...what he fecking eats and most boring of all where he's bloody been. Dull as a dull thing in my book.
I think he's actually only on there primarily to chase 'skirt' behind his wife's back.

From reading the posts in this topic it clearly works for some as a catch up and keeping in contact tool.
But for some the level of sh1te spouted by many on fb is too much to cope with. Not that I know about it.

Facebook luddite me and likely to stay that way.
And I do keep in touch with the few people I want to keep in touch with.

Haha, yeah, tis crap of the highest order... they missed a trick with that site, it was all before Facebook wasn't it, but they required peeps to pay to connect with each other... BIIIG mistake.

Anybody remember Hot or Not?  Where you rated Girls from 1 to 10 (this is going back ages now)...

Been taken over by some dating site now... but the original was from around 1999/2000... mates used to spend ages on that in College:

The 2 extra ones aren't friends, they are just boosting their own "friend" count. :grin:

Yes I did delete you well noticed... And well broadcasted. (Thinking that someone on here will give a sh*t

No, you're wrong again. I mentioned it because you wrote:

So no... I have not deleted any of you in case you were getting a bit paro-twitchy  :laugh:


I agree with you inasmuch that no-one gives a sh*t about whether you and I are friends or not in any arena of activity, least of all me.

Don't worry Robin, I deleted Richwig ages ago as he decided to insult my wife and family so some people can talk...   :congrats:

....I think you are referring to that bunch of fanatic feminist wildlife activists! They caused a lot of people apart from myself to leave their group. It's just that I was one of the very few prepared to stand up to them.

Ohhh thats a classic  :signLOL:

"Just got some terrible news"

"Whats up mate?"

"Sorry i dont wanna talk about it"


f*ck OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  :laugh:

Yes mate that is annoying.

I never had a facebook until like December last year.
It's a very easy way of keeping in touch with your friends/family and sharing photographs etc.
It's only as drama-filled as you want it to be. I have no drama on mine, it's all banter and enjoying catching up with mates I'd otherwise never really talk to.

Keep up the good work - I like reading your posts! The Bridport page was an RR classic  :notworthy:
