Gonna kill me some Facebook

Facebook recently outdid itself on renovations. I could deal with the other changes..you know, the ones where the basic look of the site was changed, but with this one, they have gone to catering so much to the Twitter crowd and people who are obsessed with liking 400 different pages.

The sections of the profile that contained my likes, interests, activities, music, movies, television shows, etc. were insisting on being linked to different kinds of pages throughout the Internet because I guess we're all too lazy now to Google them for ourselves. I didn't know what this actual transition was so when the page telling me to "Like" all of these pages for them to appear in my profile popped up, I was like "No, thank you. I don't want to have my name attached to the actual pages on here." But in doing that I erased all of the information from my page.

Fuck this shit.

I honestly am pissed about this. I had constantly been updating my information and everything in order to keep it with my current likes, dislikes, and whatever. But because of the way I had typed in certain things (using brackets to emphasize things I liked more) Facebook could not recognize them as real things and therefore deleted them from my page. So, my most favorite things were erased and the marginal things were left as my main likes.

Rather than fight with Facebook again over this, I just deleted everything from those sections. If they decide to change something I will put them back, but not now. No. I don't feel like being someone on Twitter.

Because I don't like Twitter.

And speaking of that fucking bull shit piece of fucking shit website, the fucking Library of Congress is going to be archiving the fucking tweets from now on. So two hundred years from now people will be able to go back and see things like "RT @cocksucker102 lolz i hav 2 go 2 da stor now. l8r im getin sum tim wit da gurl"

Very promising for our society.
