Will Facebook be the downfall of my generation?

I don't know. It could work the other way. Right now, it's "in style" to tell everyone what the hell you are doing every five seconds.
If it happens enough, hopefully people will get sick of it, the way they did with minivans. But, it takes a long time for people to get sick of things. I mean, look at Uggs and saggy pants.
I've had both MySpace and FB.
It's a great way of finding people. I can't imagine having it back in the days when I was already still "in touch" with everyone. If you've been away a while, it's a great thing to find old freinds, etc.
But other than that, it's not much more than email with a picture.
I never posted on MySpace unless I had a new blog or link to share. And IDK if I've posted more than 2 or 4 times on FB the whole time I've been on it. I don't give a crap if someone (who never returns emails) is having a "bad hair day" or "eating popcorn", so why the hell should anyone care what I am doing?
Think about it...if you were able to call all of your friends at the same time, just to tell them that you are "feeling tired", would you? Probably not. So why post it? There are so many people posting, that I hardly ever check my page, only the emails.
Sometimes, I feel like responding to some of these posts, with "who gives a sh*t?" .
It slows down your computer, too.
Some people are on there all day, just trying to see what everyone else is doing. It's horrible.
As with MySpace, I only add people I've known or know or met. I never add strangers based on their pics. My wife always brags about having so many contacts, like 100 more than me. But none of them return her calls, so what the hell is the point? We have parties and stuff, and none of the FB people are there besides her sister and my FB people, so why bother adding people that don't give a crap about you? It's quality, not quantity.
I still haven't added her as a friend,lol.
