RE: Monthly? Meme dump

You talk about stopping social media I was asked this week for my Face Book account so this business could send me their advertising junk regularly. I have been using these people for a while sending all my documents overseas via couriers and she thought I may want to be included. When I informed her I do not have Face Book she was horrified. I know my daughter opened one up in my name, but used it for farming in some game they had on there. Funny how people just presume and honestly think I am better for not having experienced it.

yeah people are quite surprised when they hear that you are not in the gaggle of folks that live and breathe social media. People will often send me tweets or IG's and I don't have either one of those apps and sometimes their reaction is one of "how do you live?" Well I'll tell you how I live... a lot more productively and with a level-head much more so than the people I know that spend their entire day doom-scrolling through vacuous garbage that their friends and family throw online. My family members and I have a private telegram group where we can share pictures of our lives. I don't need the entire world to know what I am up to and more and more people are starting to realize that FB is "Free" because they are ripping you off in other ways.

Many of the people I know that were avid social users before have almost nothing to do with it now. And I think that is a good thing.

They will be better off for it once they realise it is just a waste of time and if you want to speak or contact family and friends phone them or visit them instead. People have forgotten how to speak to each other.

yep, and I hate it. It's odd how social media made us all a lot less social. I reprimand people I know if they break out their phone while we are meeting out together. I probably get a bit too upset with them but enough already!

Just look around in a restaurant and watch the couples on their phones not talking to each other. Imagine that happening whilst dating someone and would be a red flag immediately. How they get to the sex part I don't know because they never speak.
