I haven't posted on FB or IG in about 2 years. I just call/text people. It's only required if you make it required

Are you sure you should be talking down to people based on your social media addiction and desperate need for online validation?

Yikes.

You really can't hang out with some millenials. I won't generalize and say all, because not all of them have that mentality. But the ones with the "zoomer" mentality are legit cringeworthy to listen to and bring no substance to a conversation. That's if you can even get them to look up from their phones

So?

No one is making you read it...if you need it to communicate to specific entities, then use it just for that..not hard.

How hard is it to create a generic acct...and only interact with those you need to? Fuk...set your chit to private and be fkn done...why the fuk are you crying?

Yes most boomers enjoy doing yard work because they actually own a house and not living with their parents at 25 or cramming 3 people in a small apartment because they can’t find jobs with their liberal arts degree

Just realized most forums are dead because everyone found a community on social media and the misc is still alive because most people don’t have one or are not active on their profiles

You can can actually tell a lot about a person's intelligence based on their dependence on social media srs

If you pay attention to those who constantly post and/or browse social media vs those who mostly ignore it and actually do things in the real world, you'll notice a pattern





edit: intelligence might not have been the best word, but more like ability and willingness to lead vs following others like a sheep

Is the word you're thinking of "independent" or "self-sufficient"?

Pretty much this, but I do keep FB just to keep up with rescue stuff. Haven't posted on there for 2.5 years.

Dude's not shirtless unless he's at the doctor or his local bar is hosting an amateur sumo competition.
