This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

At one point, I got on the Facebook bus. I regret it for multiple reasons, but the recommendations are what made me jump ship years ago.
See, they would throw up recommendations of people that were "friends" with my actual friends and family. Which meant that most of them were also friends and family, or at least people I knew in real life.
At some point though, Facebook decided that sending requests to people was not acceptable, I guess, because they suspended the account. It was temporary, but what the fuck? Like, I had the same last name as 60% of the people I was connecting with. The other ones were often people that used to have the same last name but got married. As in relatives. The rest were school friends and such.
So, I just said fuck it. Only time I'd mess with it at all was when someone would send me a link to something there. Eventually, I got sick of that too, posted a message saying that anyone who wanted to contact me after a week should let me know so we could exchange emails or whatever, then after a week I deleted the account. I do, technically still have one that was set up for games only, but I can't remember the password, and don't give enough of a fuck to reset it.
