Do you ever wish...

Do you ever wish that you could anonymously like something on FB? I saw something hilarious, but if I "like" it, it would be super mean, so I can't. But in my mind I totally do.

Re: Do you ever wish...

  • Yes, on more of a regular basis than I probably should admit. Maybe I'm just evil. :)
  • Yep.  Often.  I also really have to censor my status updates because I usually want to post something that some of my 'friends' shouldn't read.  WHY THE HELL DID FACEBOOK CHANGE THEIR POLICY????  If it was still only college students, family members wouldn't be on FB and this wouldn't be a farking issue.

  • I am an ahole, so I like the mean things if I'm so moved to do so. hahahaha

  • I thought about it, but this one is just too mean.

    A girl changed her relationship status, and the guy commented, shooting her down. Ouch.

  • A friend of mine recently went from 'in a relationship' to 'it's complicated' and I wanted to like it because I despise his girlfriend.  I refrained because he's a nice guy and I want him to be happy.  Jeff's aunt is always posting woe-is-me shiit that I want to like because she's obnoxious and crazy - I didn't want to add her as a friend but she created a HUGE stink about it, because she acts like she is 12.  So obviously it wouldn't be smart to passive-aggressively like things on her wall, as tempting as it is.  I think about deleting my FB account just because of all of the family that has infiltrated - you can't say no, you can't delete/block them...

    But then those of us who never had the chance to go to college wouldn't be able to catch up with some friends :-/

  • Aspersia - true.  But TBH, if they hadn't opened up FB beyond college students, it never would have become what it is today - I don't think you would be 'missing out', really.  Before FB exploded, I had maybe one or two friends from the past connect with me, and people didn't use it nearly as much...it was just so different.  Most people didn't post a ton of pictures, and the format was VERY different, so for the longest time I didn't really get anything out of having FB friends.  If that makes sense.  FB would have stayed small and insignificant.  I probably wouldn't have made an account after it got huge if I didn't already have one.

    Why oh why do people post stuff like this on fb in the first place?  Maybe I'm just weird & don't get it, but...shouldn't some things stay private?  or at least confined to a small group?

    This, totally.  My friends and I are probably even more paranoid than most (crazy lawyers), but none of us post much at all, and what we do post is totally innocuous.  No drama llamas!
