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.

I still have my FB, but anyone who ever posts anything about politics or opinions on world matters I have hidden from my newsfeed.  At this point, my newsfeed is pretty much pictures/post from the lost pet group I follow, pictures/posts about dogs doing cute/funny things, and pictures/posts from the cooking groups I follow as I'm an avid cook.  Sprinkle in a few posts/pictures from my friends whom I haven't hidden that post pictures of their family, etc. It's much more enjoyable.

I got off of Facebook for this very reason when Obama got elected for the first time.  I went there originally to catch up with friends.  That is not even close what it turned into.

All of my friends on FB were people I actually know, even a couple of guys from this message board who I met at Jaguars training camps and tailgates, some who are not on here anymore and some no longer with us at all. And family, of course, all of whom are long distance. I followed a couple of cat rescue groups and the Jaguars and the National Hurricane Center/NOAA. That was it. No random people I don't actually know in life. 

That made it hard when people started going full stupid with their opinions about things because I started seeing a side of them I had no idea was there. I never realized how much politics and religious beliefs were so intertwined with many of them and last year it seemed their political stance became more important than their faith which freaked me out. So I had to let it go and I don't miss it.

Truth. I wanted nothing to do with it but signed up when my class reunion was coming up. I thought it would be a good way to catch up with folks beforehand, which I did, and it was pretty neat. I never made it to my reunion and I should've cancelled FB and got on with my life but then I was able to see long distance family and friends and chat with them and see photos and decided to stay on. Fast forward a decade and I'd had enough.

I used to use FB for many of the reasons already stated by others as well as the entertainment.  I dumped them once they became political and started censoring people.

I just use FB for the memes. You guys need to find some friends that [BLEEP] post.

Did I just find a word that made it through the censors?

Well, that wasn’t right.  Obviously [BLEEP] is censored. Still puzzled. Still on the hunt for the mystery word.  Do appreciate the initiative Mike.  I’ll help ya out to get out of the red.

It was a combined word, not an actual real word.
When you add a bleeped word to a non bleeped word, you’ve created a new word. The filter can only work so much. We hope our members can help us out and catch the things we miss.

What’s so sad is she’s so stupid she doesn’t even realize what a hypocrite she is.
