Goldman Answers Why People Log On To Social Networking Sites
Today, instead of some arcane chart showing in some complex fashion the simple fact that only excess liquidity drives excess returns, we present something more in tune with the latest bubble du jour: social networking. As part of its social media survey Goldman Sachs asked respondents what is the main reason for people to "log on" to various social networking venues. The answer, by a wide margin, is the expected one: namely to spy, and to compare whether our lives are more boring, less glitzy and exciting, with fewer gadgets, gizmos, smaller houses or cars, and generally more in debt, than our "friends." Of course, the politically correct way of saying this is "to see what my friends are doing." In other words, there is nothing new about social media but a millennia-old regurgitated phenomenon- it is merely a new locus of exhibiting and observing social status, to see and be seen. One which can be enjoyed 24/7. At least, until something better comes along.

Where's the option for "Had to find something to do while pooping"?
Black gold, bitchez?
I am trolling for snark. There's a massive school of snarks right here.
Another americentric pissing contest wrapped in an advertising platform wrapped in a CIA database patrolling for mouth breathers
FB is just another voluntary metal detector equivalent, where the government can see what you are hiding under your balls sack.
Turn your brain to unquestioning mush with mutually enforcing conformity. More zombie, more sheeple.
Nature does not care. Neither do I (well until they come for me.)
I go on so my friends can see what I'm doing
You have friends?
I log onto Zero Hedge in no small part to find out the nationalities of ladies trav has banged. So far my spreadsheet "travswomen.xls" contains India, Ethiopia and Kosovo. If I've missed any updates pls help me out buddy.
Face it, trav is smart and has an acerbic wit when he wants to break it out. If I were a chick I'd probably spread for him. You would too!
Re: the article it seems like women get onto FB to pretend how great their life is...posing on and on. I still haven't figured out why a man would be on that site. Maybe because the chicks they wanna fuck or stalk are on there?
Pretty much; they want to know why you aren't on there telling them what you are doing, then get pissed off when another Woman says something to you.
A nightmare for Men; a societal disease of juvenile narcissism, but that is the path we are on.
Fake posts are the best, just make shit up, drives 'em all crazy.
I link Zero Hedge articles and comments (and pics stolen from William_Banzai7), as well as other news, in an effort to wake them up.
Amazingly, I still have an amazing number of FB 'friends'.
I do the same, but I was discussing whit a friend about the fact that in this way you are clearly recognized by the architect/CIA as an awaken dude, so I doesn't know if it is a smart thing to do...
they don't need FB for this. Your browsing habits and posting history aggregated from different forums is more than enough to find this out. You're already most probably tagged for contributing to this website's comment section.
Once you realize this, the incentives switch massively. If you're already tagged why not go ahead and do your best to wake people up?
If you're on the Internet, you're being profiled. Social networking sites just make it more efficient.
Hehe Trav has a point. I think this is the main reason people post shit on sn sites - to let people know what they are doing and then they log in to check if there are any responses. Women seem to regard Facebook as a support group to prop up their self confidence. Have you noticed all the "you're so beautiful" comments they send to each other even if they are total hags? These sites plug into our petty need for approval.
yeah and the way superficial and insecure hot chicks post slutty pics of themselves so they can get 100 "OMG ur so hot" replies from desperate dudes thinking they can grovel their way into the girl's pants
Well, that about sums it up. The women are attention whores, and the men are desperate. I long ago left Facebook and then Google+ more recently. Even using them for networking to spread the truth was a waste of time. Most people on them do not give a shit about the truth. They use it as an interactive replacement for the TV. My wife is on a couple of the more popular sites. My earlier statement applies to her too of course.
Coke and Hookers, too frigging funny. Menopausal-onset cognitive dissonance.
"Have you noticed all the 'you're so beautiful' comments they send to each other even if they are total hags?"
You idiot Gentiles volunteer all your personal information on our Zionist spy network because we tell you to.
Only wish we chose a more seasoned sociopath figurehead, Zuckerberg seems to fold under pressure...

Can't believe he lets that Goy bitch flash his Star of David/Synagogue of Satan emblem in front of the tv.
The giggling Goys have no idea... LOL!
"It's a company hoodie..." Wow! Why, yes, it is..! Such an interesting emblem...
I log on to fool my handlers into thinking I'm occupied with bread & circus, and raging against the machine/venting through cathartic snark, but in reality, unbeknownst to my handlers, I am building an army.
Well played.
I spend 3 hours a day chronically masturbating to Asian gangbang..
www.spankwire.com is a social media?

bukkake..? You got it.

Now there's an idea for Zynga.
No, that's why people come to Goldman
People go to Goldman to have sex with sheep.
We called her Skippy (spreads easily). That's what we called her behind her back. Hot cheerleader that earned her name. She is my friend on facebook. And she posts everything about her life. Talk about an amusing distraction for me and my really close friends. That's what FB is fucking worth.
if that wasn't too long ago, hit me up with her contact info
Are you building an army too?
FACEBOOK BY DOUCHEBAGS FOR DOUCHEBAGS, EXCLUSIVELY.
(THE BEST PEOPLE I KNOW REFUSE TO HAVE FB ACCOUNTS.)
"Seek the truth" - 0.0001%
We need FaceHedge. On a short enough timeline everyone ceases wanting to see your status updates, your likes, your game achievements, and your face.
so...bullish?
But Mr. Zuckerberg already knew that, didn't he?
i got better things to do than get in pissing contests with people on facebook. Fuck facebook.
So of course we all come to Zero Hedge to get into pissing contests with other Hedgers. Which means we all have urine soaked shoes......or in my case bunny slippers. :)
Pretty in pink.
Can somebody friend Molly Ringwald and let me know what she's up to these days? Maybe Phoebe Cates too.
they're up to about 50
Probably more like 2 fity
I'm with ya on the Phoebe Cates; but Molly Ringworm?!?!?! (*shudders*)
Phoebe Cates is still cute in pic though born in 1963; Molly Ringwald has her new album... well no more, just unfriend both of them :) get bored
Upside to Facebook. I like to look up old girlfriends from a few decades back. If they haven't aged well, it makes my day.
Is not Phoebe married to the aged Kevin Kline ( some 16 years her senior ) ? She more or less became a matron and dropped out of sight after she married him.
Whither the old Ridgemont High days...

CogDis- I've been wondering where you were. Good to hear from you. Old fan. This site needs you.
But at zerohedge, nonconformity, independent thinking and critical reasoning and contrarian viewpoint are encouraged.
So you see, i disagree with your dissonance. We are nothing like facebook.
No they're not. You're an idiot if you think this site supports critical thinking.
Didn't you read Fight Club?
But at zerohedge, nonconformity, independent thinking and critical reasoning and contrarian viewpoint are encouraged
Ha! Reminds me of back in the 80's this chick (who was all decked out like Madonna 'Like a Virgin') was interviewed and asked...
So why do you dress in this provocative way?
Answer: "To express my individuality"
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
We're not allowed these in Auzdralia, so we jam our feet up the arses of kangagaroos. Man do they jump.
Now those are good. Would post 'em on FB if I had an account.
***Queue theme from Rocky in 3...2...1...*** Oh but you're missing the best part of FB. Once you spend time on ZH, you become -as so many here say- a member of "fight club". Not to mention your overall knowledge capability about todays real world rises considerably faster than John Q. Facebookuser. I LOVE crashing FB's socialist-Marxist-demoncat-loser sites and giving them the sh*t. They don't know how to handle real debate with the gloves off. They are pathetically ill-equipped for straight-up truth. I feel it is my duty to enlighten them. It should be every ZH members' duty. Bring that MotherF***er down!

"Hey, you sound upset? I gave you a 'like', does that help? Have you seen that really cute video with the two cats and the jar of Vaseline? It's SOOO cute! OMG! C'mon, let's go play Farmville and then post some pictures of each other smiling and sharing a mocah jizz almond prostrate cream latte at Starfucks."
That is the funniest post ever. I pissed my pants. Thanks.
"It ain't no fun unless you piss someone off." Me
Like posting on ZH.
Yeah what he said.
Depressing.
only if you think about it
..try just vedging like most Americans/Europeans ...go round in a Bernanke blown recovery bubble of US Govt fabricated 'green shoot' statistics.. zombie sheep 'living the coma'
My social networking is confined to the comment boards on the Hedge. Make the government work a little bit to collect my beliefs instead of just out right handing them over. Besides its a lot more fun.
What's a social network?
think volunteering to be corporate factory farmed chickens
it's where you freely give your personal data, photo ID and lifestyle to a corporate monopolist and they flog it for all it's worth (you're a chip adding value to FB/GS's empire)
Google now has face recognition they can scan the web for further evidence of you and share across all their platforms and with whomever
i simply can't wait to be plucked by Google, love those guys
(This is not directed personally at you, Zero Govt; I've read and agreed with many of your comments.)
Getting out of facebook, or refusing to join, is meaningless. If you really want meaningful nonparticipation, and if you really want to be out of the grasp of your local fascist government--I mean 'you', Americans, in particular--then stop feeding the war machine/slaughtering the world with your tax dollars and then get your selves out of the national jurisdiction of your passport issuer. There's actual freedom out here, UNLIKE inside the USuckAss, where all residents are presently SuckingAss, with bernank, bam-bam, and mittens in rotation, and every worker finger painting with Arab blood because there's so much on every tax-paying hand.
Do you have some destination suggestions? Truly curious; I've been wanting to get out of Dodge for quite a while but haven't settled on a place. I have a family to care for as well. Thanks.
Northern Canada, look to the margins (in more ways than one)
It's a huge world, and most countries ought to be viable options. I guess I'd suggest checking out wherever sounds interesting to you. For me, it's Asia; I've passed most of the previous sixteen years living and traveling the seaboard. Lots of jobs with good salaries to be found in the 'tigers', and even the emerging economies, too. Good luck, bro.
And Google will soon be able to reconize faces in all the amateur (read "porn") videos posted on the net, as well.
Jesus, people are dumb!
The other day I was @ a party for people that work for NBC. Is that a "network social"?
Does anyone find it odd that Judge Napolitano wrote an open letter imploring his listener's NOT to follow their 1st amendment right to write in to FOX and let their thoughts be known?
Yeah - he doesn't want them to unwittingly put themselves on The List.
"at the mall"...." taking a shit"...... "Picking up my sister from the airport".... These are the awesome things you get to read your friends are doing.
Every click "see what my friends are doing" is worth $10 in FB's market cap.
And how is this going to make a few bucks for GS?
1. research fb
2. sell fb shares to clients after picking it up in size earlier
3. profit!
BREAKING: Kurt Haskell Exposes Government False Flag Operation During Underwear Bomber SentencingExclusive: Personal Statement from Kurt Haskell, Delta 253 Passenger
Kurt Haskell
Infowars.com
Thursday, February 16, 2012
Every victim of a crime in Michigan is entitled to make a statement in open court regarding the impact of the crime on their life. The statement is limited to the victim’s physical, emotional and financial well being as it relates to the crime. Keep that in mind as you read my statement. Below is a copy of the victim impact statement I gave today at the Underwear Bomber sentencing hearing. When reading my statement, keep in mind that I am a practicing attorney in the State of Michigan. In addition, I regularly practice in the Court the hearings are taking place at and therefore, I am somewhat limited as to what I can say. We were limited to 5 minutes each.
I wish to thank the Court for allowing me these 5 minutes to make my statement. My references to the government in this statement refer to the Federal Government excluding this Court and the prosecution. On Christmas Day 2009, my wife and I were returning from an African safari and had a connecting flight through Amsterdam. As we waited for our flight, we sat on the floor next to the boarding gate. What I witnessed while sitting there and subsequent events have changed my life forever. While I sat there, I witnessed Umar dressed in jeans and a white t-shirt, being escorted around security by a man in a tan suit who spoke perfect American English and who aided Umar in boarding without a passport. The airline gate worker initially refused Umar boarding until the man in the tan suit intervened. The event meant nothing to me at the time. Little did I know that Umar would try to kill me a few hours later as our flight approached Detroit. The final 10 minutes of our flight after the attack were the worst minutes of my life. During those 10 minutes I sat paralyzed in fear. Unfortunately, what happened next has had an even greater impact on my life and has saddened me further.
When we landed, I was shocked that our plane taxied up to the gate. I was further shocked that we were forced to sit on the plane for 20 minutes with powder from the so called bomb all over the cabin. The officers that boarded the plane did nothing to ensure our safety and did not check for accomplices or other explosive devices. Several passengers trampled through parts of the bomb as they exited the plane. We were then taken into the terminal with our unchecked carry on bags. Again, there was no concern for our safety even though Umar told the officers that there was another bomb on board as he exited the plane. I wondered why nobody was concerned about our safety, accomplices or other bombs and the lack of concern worried me greatly. I immediately told the FBI my story in order to help catch the accomplice I had seen in Amsterdam. It soon became obvious that the FBI wasn’t interested in what I had to say, which upset me further. For one month the government refused to admit the existence of the man in the tan suit before changing course and admitting his existence in an ABC News article on January 22, 2010. That was the last time the government talked about this man. The video that would prove the truth of my account has never been released. I continue to be emotionally upset that the video has not been released. The Dutch police, meanwhile, in this article (show article), also confirmed that Umar did not show his passport in Amsterdam which also meant that he didn’t go through security as both are in the same line in Amsterdam. It upsets me that the government refuses to admit this fact.
I became further saddened from this case, when Patrick Kennedy of the State Department during Congressional hearings, admitted that Umar was a known terrorist, was being followed, and the U.S. allowed him into the U.S. so that it could catch Umar’s accomplices. I was once again shocked and saddened when Michael Leiter of the National Counter terrorism Center admitted during these same hearings that intentionally letting terrorists into the U.S. was a frequent practice of the U.S. Government. I cannot fully explain my sadness, disappointment and fear when I realized that my government allowed an attack on me intentionally.
During this time, I questioned if my country intentionally put a known terrorist onto my flight with a live bomb. I had many sleepless nights over this issue. My answer came shortly thereafter. In late 2010, the FBI admitted to giving out intentionally defective bombs to the Portland Christmas Tree Bomber,the Wrigley Field Bomber and several others. Further, Mr. Chambers was quoted in the Free Press on January 11, 2011 when he indicated that the government’s own explosives experts had indicated that Umar’s bomb was impossibly defective. I wondered how that could be. Certainly, I thought, Al Qaeda wouldn’t go through all of the trouble to plan such an attack only to provide the terrorist with an impossibly defective bomb.
I attended nearly all of the pretrial hearings. At the hearing on January 28, 2011, I was greatly disappointed by the prosecution’s request to block evidence from Mr. Chambers “as it could then be able to be obtained by third parties, who could use it in a civil suit against the government”. It really bothered me that the government apparently was admitting to wrongdoing of some kind as it admitted that it was concerned it would be sued. It further upset me to know that the government was putting its own interests ahead of those of the passengers
When I attended the jury selection hearings, I questioned why versions of the same two questions kept coming up, those being:
1. Do you think you’ll be able to tell whether something is actually a bomb? and? 2. Do you realize that sometimes the media doesn’t always tell the truth?
I continued to be greatly saddened at this point as I felt the truth continued to be hidden.
When Umar listed me as his only witness, I was happy to testify, not on his behalf, but on behalf of the truth. I never expected to testify, as my eyewitness account would have been too damaging to the myth that the government and media are putting forward. A mere 5 days after I was announced as a witness, there was an inexplicable guilty plea which exasperated me as I no longer would be testifying.
In closing I will just say that regardless of how the media and government try to shape the public perception of this case, I am convinced that Umar was given an intentionally defective bomb by a U.S. Government agent and placed on our flight without showing a passport or going through security, to stage a false terrorist attack to be used to implement various government policies.
The effect this matter has had on my life has been astounding and due to this case, I will never trust the government in any matter, ever.
In regards to sentencing, nothing I’ve said excuses the fact that Umar tried to kill me. He has waived his valid claim to the entrapment defense. Umar, you are not a great Muslim martyr, you are merely a “Patsy”. I ask the court to impose the mandatory sentence.
Kurt Haskell is a badass. I hope Ron Paul makes him Attorny General.
As long as he stays away from hot tubs and ledges until then.
No private planes or Amtrak trains, either
kill switch - kudos to you for posting that.
I honestly hadn't a clue about any of that testimony regarding admissions by U.S. officials.
Our media is just so intentionally incompetent....no....,make that an aiding and abetting accomplice of the crimes being committed against the American Citizenry.
I wonder if ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX, CNN, etc. will run a primetime special to reveal this to the general public? /sarc
Thanks for posting this, Kill Switch. Learning the man's testimony above was a baby step in my wife's awakening process. That's the reason the media does not give attention to such events of course. The facts of such events would wake too many people up.
"Conspire to control the masses is your goal,
The lies we've bought, you've sold but we're watching you
And every grassy knoll and bell tower too...
Who's you next patsy?
The lies caught up to you, speak 'till you're
Blue in the face, but we'll never believe you.
We've weighed the evidence and what we conclude is...
In the land of the free
If you stir things up, you'll be put to sleep
By the bureau of investigation,
They'll plan your annihilation.
The click of a sniper trigger,
We'll put the blame on a lesser figure,
To confuse and distract,
Fuck the First Amendment Act."
great post. Reminds me of that time that rascally russian (?) stole that rascal code that for that extra rascally high frequency trading. The Federal Prosecutor was asking for rascally high bail and conditions. The judge was balking. When prompted to explain, the prosecutor said, but you don't understand your honor, in the wrong hands, this software could be used to manipulate the market. Do these people ever listen to themselves?
Why doesn't Haskell sue? He has all the evidence he needs to make a case.
The subliminal message here is that resistance is futile. If even a hometown lawyer and eyewitness can't get a fair hearing then nobody can.
The less subliminal message is that justice and truth will never see the light of day under the rule of (those purporting to represent the) law; the institutions cannot be changed; humanity's only hope for freedom is that they may yet be destroyed.
Americans are pussies. Kurt will swear to it in court.
He likes breathing and knows it is a lost cause?
He's saving up to move to Costa Rica. Where pussies go to whine.
lawyers are pussies ..a retreat from the real into the world of words
Same with twitter bunch of nobodies promoting nothing
Facebook is not a workplace run by Z.
I learned fast that family and friends have very thin skins and mostly a sheeple's view of the world.
I got rid of Facebook. I wont make that mistake again.
Most of the Facebook 'friends' I have now are pretty cool. I used to post things that I knew would intentionally offend some people to see if they would remove me... Pro-meat stuff to tick off the vegans, anti-global warming stuff to annoy the greenies and other things like "Adele sucks". To their credit, no one has removed me yet...
Then again, apart from family I don't add just anyone unless I really knew and liked them. My husband adds anyone and then spends half the time annoyed at the drivel they post. Meh, I just remove them or switch their feed off.
Where it's most fun is when I see the odd drama queen who realizes no one cares about her United Way fundraiser or anti-OWS rants or that she hates Mondays or the details of the tedious admin work she does.. It goes along the lines of "does any one read my posts? does anyone know I'm alive?... That's it, I'm taking down my profile. If no one responds I'm gone".
No one responds, it repeats for a few weeks and then they're gone...
"..apart from family I don't add just anyone unless I really knew and liked them."
"Meh, I just remove them or switch their feed off."
You've one split personality going on there... Mrs Jeckyll meet Mrs Hyde

facebook's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale

To speak and purpose not.
Where is clicking on ads for products shown in the news feed???
WHERE IS IT!!!! Where is looking at ads, IT SHOULD BE #1 ON THE LIST!!!
Facebook and all the other social networking sites gain their insane market values on ad sales. Isn't that why every corporation on earth is looking to monetize page views on Facebook? If nobody is claiming that they spend most of their time looking at ads, or claiming they log on to Facebook to look at ads. Well then a $100 billion valuation can't possible be correct.
AGAIN, WHERE IS LOOKING AT THE SIDEBAR. I WANT A RECOUNT!!!
um yes, I actually know nobody actually looks at ads on facebook. Nobody uses social media to click on spam. I am just trying to make the point that valuing an ad platform at $100 billion is insanity.
I have never seen ads. I use various Mozilla ad breaking add ons.
Hell if a ad did get through a simple right click drop down block image makes it go away.
My facebook adds account summary, presented without comment:
Impressions: 270 Clicks: 0 CTR: 0.000% CPC: $0.00 Spent:$0.00
I fucking hate Social Networking! Come to think of it, I have no friends.......
seems you have three so far............
This brings up another valid topic for discussion. What is a friend? I was taught, and learned through experience of course, that a friend is someone who is furthering the same truth (moral code, ethics, etc.) as you. Their motivations for furthering that truth are the same as well. Being a friend has nothing to do with common activities, shared blood, or anything else along those lines either.
Facebook is only good for one thing: Stringing along chicks.
:)
Or busting marriages when wife sees several chicks in your wall.
..or plugging the impossible gaps in Goldmans terminally declining revenues/profits
Blankfein: another 'best brains in America' with a Kamakazi growth record
Sumguy told me you can get chicks to do anything... I'd like a sammich and a beer.
Share photos? Who the fuck does that...
You Cussed! +1
Where's our resident -1'er for cursing? William must be immune.
I would share your photos but then the eye in the sky would know my feelings. When friends share stuff with me about politics/finance I have to write stuff like, "Hmmm, didn't know about that", ignore it, or delete it all together.
facebook's agenda scares the pants off of me.
When silent about the things that matter, our lives begin to end. Don't let them coerce you into being silent.
Leave the USuckAss. Then facebook's CIA-or-whatever-agenda won't matter for shit to you.
I thought Facebook was a underage drinking club. Clearly I have a lot to learn.
So........are these shared photos porn by any chance? Just askin' cus..........
Careful CD...... You have to answer to Mrs. C. Have you forgotten how mad she got the last time you chased her around the house after taking Viagra and checking out the porn sites? :)
I prefer not to remember that dreadful incident. Worse, there will be no more irrational exuberance by Cog from here on out. Mrs. C confiscated my Viagra and read me the riot act.
Cog has been castrated without sedation..........or was that sedition? :)
This site has become as bad a circlejerk as reddit. For fuck's sake.
I thought the Sand Bar was the underage drinking club....
My friend is in a porn "group" where girls in the group take pics of themselves. facebook is something straight out of BNW.
are they hot? If so i need to friend them
I saw only black chicks. Sorry Trav!
Haha!
ew...blk chks look like monkeys,
& so does your mother. lol.
....good one. Black chicks look like monkeys that's why black dudes aren't even attracted to them.
I'm just being honest.
In general black chicks look like monkeys. Black guys are the same thing. We (white people) love watching you jump onto the rim.
Laughed my ass off at that one.
Chissakes WB - I nearly choked on a chip going down reading that...!
Here. Log onto this site. What's the worst thing that could happen? http://thecivillibertarian.blogspot.com/2012/02/join-me-in-suing-federal...
Wow GS are a bunch of morons. The obvious #1 reason that people log on, which they don't even have, is for attention. People want to post crap about their lives and feel important or popular. I don't know anyone who uses social networking to gauge others lives out of some sort of pathetic envy.
Mirror, mirror, on the [facebook] wall.
Monetizing Vanity! I like it! Does it seem like any strech after what we've seen monetized before? Cue the meteorites!
Though I suspect the braggarts post hoping to make others envious I have no idea to what extent it works. There's one guy on my husband's friend list who brags constantly about his travels and his expensive toys (he works in film where it's feast or famine, not steady income) and all I can think about is that this clown probably doesn't have a penny to his name. At 40 I see all the people who were hot in high school that are now fat, balding or dumpy and wonder if there is a 60-year old equivalent where my peers living the high life will be living on ramen noodles by that age.
I don't know if people gauge relative status but there is definitely a voyeuristic aspect that borders on really fucking creepy.
I was at a major public library once waiting to use one of the free computers; they had about fifty terminals. All occupied so I had to wait about ten or so minutes. All but one person playing video games was on Facebook.
A few were playing Facewbook video games, a couple were 'chatting' and the rest, about two thirds of them were just scrolling up and down the page. The younger guys would look at dozens upon dozens of photos of okay-looking chicks in bikinis you know will be fat within ten years and the rest just seemed to be staring blankly as they moved the page up and down. Not even clicking on anything, like they were in a trance or something...
All I could think at the time as I grew more annoyed at them all was "fucking sheep"... I could see (this wasn't the only time of course) why some supposed elites allegedly want to 'thin the herd' as it were...
Facebook is for people low on self esteem and void of true sense of self worth.
Facebook deleted my account.... they said it was because I didn't exist. My kids thought it was hilarious.
Or, U deleted Facebook because they don't exist. Spooky.
Strange...mine seems legit

TD is on fire today , tnx for a reason or few to think .
I tried that facebook shit for like a month and a half, then suspended my account.
I just don't see how people can put up with such meaningless. At what point does your life become so fucking unfulfilling that facebook serves a purpose? It's probably because I'm a major misanthrope and that I don't really hold an interest in people as individuals that I fail to see the appeal of that worthless site.
Like the fuck I want to know mindless little details of your goddamned life. I don't care what your kid does or what tv shows you watch.
God...this overall nihilism of society just eats away at me. How can people be content to be so fucking mindless and happy with nothing at all?
People are a product of their environment Incubus. It is tremendous to break free of that but most people don't want to contemplate what the fuck is really going on.
you just answered your own question,... brilliant
Western civilization is at its endpoint, my friend.
But no worries, something will replace it, someday.
98 % of the population should be considered idiots. Hence the need to use FB to communicate with other idiots about their daily drama which is nothing more than every Jerry Springer episode word for word.
When I want to "spy" I attach radioactive tracking beads to them and their vehicle.
I also install recording devices in their bedrooms and keyloggers on their cpus.
In addition, just to make sure, I phreak their cell phone just to be on the safe side.
I also, on occasion stalk, because watching them while they sleep transcends social media observing.
...was facebook an easier way to get all this info and I just never knew?
I tried the radioactive tracking bead thing too.
Now I get hits all over the place, 'cuz the feed from the .gov radiation-tracking-satellite makes the northern hemisphere look like a firefly's ass, with brighter areas clearly defining the jet-stream....
Sometimes I wipe polonium on them and just wait for a DHS node to pick them up and track from there.
I wish I knew about this facebook thing.
Bob when you phreak, do you use a blue box, red box, or Blotto box?
I don't even know what you're talking about.
I keep looking for the button you push and all of Goldman-Sach executives drop dead.
