Well THIS thread took a turn from 'jovial ribbing' to 'plain bitchy' pretty sharpish! 
There are some pretty horrible comments on here dressed up as 'banter....'

Facebook is a playground for adults still playing out their teenage shit. It’s completely useless and a medium for displaying your edited and fake life. I want to shake people and scream “these are not your real friends!!” And Suckerberg has now stolen all your data. I left years ago and now I’m pissed off I ever joined it.
That is such a mean and harsh generalisation. Even though I know a few people with 1500 friends/people on facebook, (most of whom they probably don't know/have little to do with,) I have 99 people on facebook, all of whom I know personally except half a dozen who I met on farmville a few years back.
And the majority of the people on my friends list have a list that consists of less than 150 friends, family, and colleagues.... most of who they know. And I know very few people who are attention seekers, and certainly no-one who acts like a teenager. Maybe my social circle is different to yours?
I also find it hard to fathom how you know what all these people are saying, and how these people have 'fake friends' and how they have an 'edited and fake life' if you 'left facebook years ago.'
You may loathe it, but if other people enjoy it, just leave them to it. I love facebook! It gives me a great opportunity to converse with people I don't see often (like relatives and friends who live overseas,) and gives me a chance to communicate quickly with friends and colleagues, and my adult children.
I love posting pics and seeing other peoples pics, and although I see the odd attention-seeking posts, the majority of the time, people are fine. I don't understand this bitter hatred for facebook. As for 'zuckerberg has all your data' did you seriously believe he didn't?! You would have to be quite deluded to think what you post on the internet is 'private.'
Take the piss out of famalam and holibobs by all means, and it's understandable to get irked with the '97% of my friends won't share this' type of thing... But to deride and berate everyone who uses facebook and label them sad losers (like a few on here have,) is just bloody rude.
@Birdsgottafly
She often posts staged pics of her close-in-age, all under six children, with the caption "love should be unconditional between Siblings". She is permanently NC with one Sister and often NC with one Brother and doesn't see her DN's.
Maybe that is why she is trying to foster closeness between her children?!
Seriously, the hatred and the vitriol aimed at facebook users (from some) is waaaay worse than any 'famalam' or #makingmemories type comments I see on social media.
Through all the 'banter' and LOLs on here, there is some thinly-veiled bitterness and envy coming through, and also some not-so-thinly-veiled bitchiness.
Not with everyone, but with some posters...........
