Doesn't the Bubonic plague get spread by rats and flees and people not bathing? Well, that's several reasons not to go to Madagascar.

Funny Face drink mix? Really? I haven't thought of that stuff since...well, since Abbey Road was a new album. I drank that stuff when I was a kid

Those are all flavors of Funny Face drink mix, popular in the late 60's. I wouldn't expect anyone here to know that, and as I said I haven't even thought about them in over 40 years

*the reference to Funny Face was pretty arbitrary, I'll give you that, not sure where rostasi was going with that

*btw, Jolly Olly Orange originally had the rather politically incorrect name Injun Orange

While I really dislike you this thread OP I will add one thing I agree with. People having pictures of all their past lovers/boyfriends/girlfriends/husbands/wives and that **** up for the world to see. While they have the right to do that don't you think you should keep that **** on a private hard drive or maybe in your house with the other pictures, not on the internet. It is the reason I try to never go snooping or looking around facebook that much because I dont want to see something I can not unsee.

Facebook, sigh* from time to time Facebook and I decide to see other people.

I frequently decide to deactivate, when I get bored with the same stupid **** I see multiple times a day. (ie.) People, making out, stupid stupid bit strips, # tags and the cardinal sin of not taking me off the slot invites, candy crush, or farmville...

Personally I use my facebook wall, as space to be as freaky strange, and random as I want to be.
My status updates are generally song lyrics, or you tube videos, or art that I find on the internet.. To which I generally get the response of, "Dude you are so weird." In essence, my wall is complied of all the things that make me tick.
Unfortunately for most of the people, I know on FB they don't see it as a forum to keep things alive, other then what they had for lunch last Tuesday. Which is lead me to MB in the first place, searching like minded people.
I have more fun interacting with strangers that share similar interests, then interacting with people I do know, and claim to care about... **** man, I am wondering how half of my friend list got their request accepted... I should have put people through a rigorous hazing ritual, to test their knowledge and opinions, and taste in music, before accepting them.... ooo that's a good idea... I think it may be time to thin the herd...

Delete them off Facebook then. Or better yet deactivate your account.

Twatter is actually better than Facebook, if you ignore the cunts & Twitstorms it's actually a good site, especially for news. Facebook is far too personal, some shit needs to remain private & people need to realise this. People putting DOB, full names, employment history etc. & It causes way too many problems, people are way too emotionally invested in it. Getting upset if someone doesn't like their status/deletes them off their friends list ffs .

Pathetic cunts. I honestly think in 10/15 years people will look back and cringe at it.

The only reason why I visit Facebook sometimes is that I belong one group. It is actually the only place where people actually talk about music but on the other hand, it is more like a message board or something and not like a forum. Also as long as it is small enough, you know, under 30 active users, although the overall number is over 300, but still. It is a great place and nearly the only reason I use Facebook.
I used to use also Facebook's chat, but it is so slow and does not work well, so I use chat app nowadays as much as possible.
Other than that, I find it completely useless, and annoying. But if some one likes it, it is not my problem so actually I don't care.

I saw an old friend last week and he can't go 45 minutes without checking his facebook status. It's annoying as you're talking to him, eating a meal, or whatever, and he's constantly checking his mobile phone. Odd.
