Also having your own words twisted and used as an argument just to prove a point, valid or not, is just wrong.

Back when FB was a thing, I realized real quick not to have a part in it. Just the sheer fact that having hundreds or thousands of “friends” was (at the time) what made you successful, I said [BLEEP] that.  No one has that many friends.  I’m not going to friend some guy or girl I bought a set of tires from.  I give you cash, I get tires.  End of transaction.  We don’t need to make this a thing.  You’re friends with a friend of mine? So who the [BLEEP] cares? That alone told me to stay away.  I luckily never had to experience what you explained.  Screw that. I’m not fake to people in real life.  I sure as hell won’t be online.  Better for me to stay away. That and I’m sure there is a dozen or so hotties trying to hit me up.  No bueno when you’re married.
