I have never logged on to facebook, myspace, jomamabook, friendsbook, myass, whatever.
And who the hell wants to hook up with the dregs from the past? If they were friends, they would be friends now.
Ahh, my crotchety, narrow sited friend. There are legitimate reasons you know that people go their seperate ways and they aren't always because people just didn't want to be friends anymore. Particularly, as conservatives I think we all understand how we get busy with life and making a way for ourselves and sometimes we ALL leave people behind, even if they were important to us. For me(and many of my friends), Hurricane Andrew happened before cell phones were widely used by most or before most stayed connected via the internet. Because of it, I lost connection with numerous friends and after a few moves lost any number I ever had for a bunch of them. I took to finding those folks when myspace, classmates.com, and other resources became more widely used. Some, would have probably ended because the would have legitimately fizzled with time, however the people I reconnected with who probably would have stayed friends have once again blossomed into wonderful friendships and we have just kind of picked up at a different time in our lives. The friendship itself still 'feels' the same. I would think that for someone who seems to get emotionally invested sometimes in the woes of others here, you surely understand the desire of REAL LIFE old friends to want to reconnect and rekindle a friendship that either went neglected or got lost along the way. IN fact, I find far more argument for someone wanting to connect with someone they actually knew versus sharing woes with someone whom they only know by an anonymous screen name.
Now, I for one don't discount the power of internet friendships, so just know I'm making a point.
And yeah, I'm picking on ya cause sometimes you sound like an old, stubborn, judgemental fart when it comes to these things and I feel as your 'little sister' I gotta come on over there and tap ya on the noggin and tell you to knock it off(if you keep it up, I'll be forced to play my car stereo loud pops and keep you from the cool whip salad!!
).
