Deleting FB...

I quit several times before I finally really quit. Was kinda like giving up smokes - it took a few tries. They make it hard because of that two week period where even if you quit, if you sign back in your account is activated. They are good at keeping you hooked and/or drawing you back in.

Like Jesse said, it's a necessary evil for a lot of people, especially groups or businesses. Unless an alternative comes around, you either accept it as part of life or learn to live without it. I've been off for a few years now and don't miss it at all.

I almost feel an obligation to update the "world" of what's up in my/our lives at times. Because FB links me to friends and family who are supportive of, and interested in what's going at in the Life of Roush, I feel the need to feed the beast. I also believe if I contribute positivity to this realm, it negates some of the bullshit.

I'd have taken 1882 over 1982 for a birthday all day...

Same here!!!
 
FB is a bunch of garbage click bait and reshares of other garbage. Sensationalized teaser headlines to get you to click on something that takes you to another site where there is two sentences of content and 40 advertisements. And people never really post about life or how things are going anymore. Mostly they just reshare videos of cats and mildly funny stuff. I do enjoy the occasional political argument but mostly it's useless banter. I wish I could delete FB but they require you to have a personal page to have a business page and the TOO page is linked off my account.

And very very little of it has been fact checked.
 
I have deleted most of the "news" links. Almost all of it is click bait. It is faster news than real news, which we don't watch.

Yeah, it sucks but great at the same time.
