Fuck Facebook.

I feel like a seventy-year-old grandma who has never used a computer before when I try to navigate this website. WHO THE FUCK DESIGNED THIS CLUSTERFUCK? I can’t even put my finger on what’s so bad about it. It’s not just my anti-facebook sentiment talking. I distinctly remember checking facebook periodically to continue epic poke-wars, but otherwise didn’t think much of the site. I thought it was useful for what it was designed for: connecting with out-of-touch people. It felt high-class at the time because it was restricted to ACADEMIC EMAIL ADDRESSES ONLY.

Something’s changed since then. I hear people saying how they spend time wasting away on facebook. I… don’t get it? I really don’t. It’s not like it’s a website I refused to join. Nope! I signed up. And thought it wasn’t a huge deal. I thought I’d try to make myself more active on the site, because people are constantly OMGZ, DO U HAVE FACEBOOK? I’m not sure when, but the UI has changed on the site. It makes absolutely no sense.

So I added someone, right? I go to try and find her. I click friends. I see a list of pending friends. I see an ad or two. I see people that COULD be my friends. ….But I don’t see a list of friends. You click friends because you’re expecting to see your friends. WHERE THE FUCK ARE MY FRIENDS? I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO FUCKING IDEA! I had to ask someone else, and they told me to look under “edit friends”. What? Are you fucking kidding me? Was the web developer on crack? “Hey dude, let’s make them have to edit their friends so they can view them. They’ll never figure it out!” WHAT THE FUCK. Am I the only person who likes things in a simple, list format?

Thank god Bruce hasn’t given us any significant UI changes in a long time. This site is SIMPLE. It WORKS. DON’T FUCKING MESS WITH IT BRUCY OR I’LL BE MAD AT YOU.

I’ll get over it. I’ll figure it out. But seriously. It’s not like this is my first time on the internets. I can figure websites out. WHY THE FUCK IS THIS SO COMPLICATED.

Just wait, once you do finally figure it out, they go and change it.

“at some point the ui changed.” that would be… Yesterday. And a couple days before that. And probably last week sometimes. Pretty ridiculous.

Yep and they just keep “updating” it and it’s obnoxious as hell.

I’m glad I don’t have a Facebook. This is reason 4,009,323. 🙂

FaceBook is GEY.

I liked Facebook. The new one is just plain stupid. And there are updates people hardly know about (like getting updates only from the people you’ve interacted with lately). Whilst I intensely dislike these changes, I find it somewhat easy to cope with them because hey, I have a knack for computers.

hahaha facebook sucks now because it’s so popular (if that makes sense). they have too much money so they completely change everything about once a month.
