Yeah i know, my friends give me **** about it basically every day lol. Once had a girl sitting next to me on a plane telling me to hand her my phone because she was opening me up an account on IG. Thankfully the plane having no internet saved me lol.


Ive heard all kinds of crazy theories from people about why i dont have one lol, makes me chuckle. Its like its a MUST thing to have nowadays they dont get why someone wouldnt give a **** about what Charlie from HS is having for dinner or drinks
"The flowers bloom, then wither... The stars shine and one day become extinct. This earth, the sun, the galaxies and even the big universe, someday will be destroyed. Compared with that, the human life is only a blink, just a little time. In that short time - people are born, laugh, cry, fight, are injured, feel joy, sadness, hate someone, love someone. All in just a moment. And then, are embraced by the eternal sleep called death."

I may be handicapping myself with that though not going to lie. Not sure if the juice is worth the squeeze at this point. If i do well with women as it is im sure with an instagram id be in every girls radar on mi city.

Well, I’m 28, living in a metro area with more than 1 million people. I have not had to use social media to contact a business ever. Or anyone really.

I look up the business and call them. If their website is useless... I view that as indication of how professional their business would be, and move on to the next.

Most definitely not required.
They said she's gone too far this time

She's conditioning herself to behave like an 18 year old with the hope of becoming one irl.

Soon she'll identify as one.

Here's an idea.. make a social media page, don't add your friends or whatever. keep it as a rolodex .. your problem is over.

People rarely think about why they do anything. They sign up for social media because "everybody is" then go on to bitch how it's cancer, get outed on stuff they posted 10 years ago, get doxxed, have problems talking with people IRL, etc. Like anything it's a tool. If anyone ever convinces me there's a valid need for a specific one, I have no problem using it. But all I see are people having the same old issues they had before, plus more. Not to mention the pressure for kids to look "interesting" to the point they fall off bridges trying to take selfies. Retarded.

Sure, having chicks from every state drooling over my IG pics might be fun, but won't get me anything I can't get walking around the block. And just lol @ ********. When everyone's grandma is on ********, it jumped the shark long ago.

I've got an FB. For me, it's mostly a football forum (I'm on some closed groups).

My last status post was 2 years ago. My feed is just single parents yammering away about how awesome their kids are (srs, I'm still only 25) and some people I know from school 40K millionaire'ing it (they're junior-level engineers, I know what they're making down to +/- $5K, I have a rough idea of how much their new cars and vacations cost, and I'm aware that those two numbers don't square).

I use it for occasionally stalking people I know, but I guess I'm too redpilled to actually bejealousof them. I don't remove my social media because to be frank, it doesn't affect my life one way or the other.

Also, Vox mentioned a good point. I have my public profile locked down hard to prevent doxxing, cause I'm very active on anonymous boards like this and you never know when someone will decide to be a ****.

They do. It's fukking scary.

I was talking to a friend in my research lab last month, I pulled up a FB tab to show him a mutual friend of ours, and FB's like "People you may know: This Guy You're Talking To!" I guarantee they've got our mics bugged and chit.

My brother does Big Data research and he's mentioned that FB has huge data sets that are very poorly secured. Not nearly as big as Google's, but they are much more careless about who can get to it.

I don't know why you all are arguing with SilenceSpeaks. She's a woman and social media is like crack for women. Their egos thrive off attention. Everywhere you go women are always in their phone, whether it's the club, bar, some party, a rave, etc.

I would rather IM than call because I hate most of the stupid phone trees. Now some places are trying out "AI" for their IM CS. Blah.

Thumbs up for Texas Farm Bureau Insurance though. Haven't filed any claims, so can't say about that. I just love that when I call a human answers the phone with no automated BS.

Nice surprise today exchanging some shorts for ones that fit better/not so big in the waist. Swapped a 6 for a 4. Not because I'm not fat right now, 'cause I am, just continued bemusement at the clothing industry.

I'd feel like a complete ****gatron for taking pictures of myself having a good time and posting it online. Family and friends sure, but strong narcissist posting all that online for the world to see. I mean think about what you're doing, you're posting pictures from the best angles in hopes to look cool for some broads. Sounds souless. I mean you could always join and group and share amongst each other to cope.
