Only 50 friends on facebook.

To start of the ride of hatred that will surely be a long one I am going to talk about facebook.


Recently someone asked me.
"Matthew, why do you only have 50 friends on facebook?"
Okay so here is the thing that really bothers me. 'Only' as if 50 isn't enough. Well for a start off, the people's friend requests that I accept are people I know. So that knocks off about 100 of everyone I knows friends list. Also I only add people I have regular conversations with or at least enjoy the few I have with said person. Knocking off another 100 and another 200 if you're in highschool or recently left.


What do I get out of adding 150 people that I don't give a shit about? All I get to know is that they play farm ville way too much and love to join groups that mean fuck all. The people I add are personal friends and people I am interested in knowing of their daily life.


Not that anyone uses facebook for its actual purpose. Which is to update friends on your own daily life. I don't see anyone actually doing that other than myself.


So I have 50 friends. Because those are the people I have in reality as friends. If you think that is a small number:
A) Fuck you. I'd be happy with one if they could hold a decent conversation.
B) Go through your facebook and count how many you talk to once a day for more than 20 seconds. And then pick ones you have actually even spoken to. Remove all of them and find how many are left.

I don't hate life.
I just hate life that is stupid.
