The-Hogs.net - Washington Football Discussion, Redskins to Commanders Era

I'm sure many of you have a Facebook account. It's hooked you up with high school buddies, college friends, old co-workers from years gone by.

I know....it happened to me.

But my wife has had her share of troubles. She is completely addicted to Facebook and her Iphone. She has had a falling out with her sister and caused arguments and mis-understanding with my sister....all on Facebook

It pisses me off....she just get's crazy on it.

Facebook is the devil's playground. LOG OFF immediately and go out to play....please....!!!!

I am getting a background check done for a job and they asked for my facebook user name and password. It's crap. Also it's mostly only useful for telling me things i don't care about and making me reply to dumb crap. People throw out your dirty laundry on there. Other than scouting chicks, it has no purpose.

Brad....better get in there and clean it UP....hehehe j/k

Your potential new bosses wanna see your beer drinking, pot smoking photos...that's all.

Tell them you don't have one and they are violating your constitutional right to privacy to even suggest asking for your any of your usernames and passwords.

I find it useful to keep up with what friends are doing. Some of them irritate me with their status update every 30 minutes, but it is helpful with keeping in touch with people I wouldn't or couldn't keep up with. It is all in how you use it.

I delete drama, even if it's family.

many of my skeletons came out for all to see on that god $&@ web site. Wife included. Not good

There are things and people that I do not and will not associate with anymore. A lot of my ppl from high school are still doing the same things we were doing 20 years ago, and that's no longer me.

I actually attended a fundraiser after I got out of the Army for a popular guy in our extended crowd who had two organ transplants. A lot of the people there were doing the same things I enlisted to get away from. There's actually a guy I used to party with in high school (I'm mid 30s now) that STILL delivers pizzas from Dominos. Still partying like we used to.

I wouldn't say they're skeletons my wife doesn't know about, but it's a past chapter in my life I no longer need to visit. And these 'old friends' can stay memories.

It got you too....huh...!!!???

If you're smart about it and don't put any personal information out there and don't add people you don't know then it's a great thing to use.

Myspace to me is more the devil's playground. Facebook, if used properly is a great way to network

If you're like me, and you dislike most of the things your friends say in reference to your life, then its not for you.

I've already cut those 'friends' out of my life.
