Stevo985 Posted August 3, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted August 3, 2013 It certainly has it's uses. And it may very well be the future. But as I said, as of right now, it's next to useless for what I use social networking for. That's just me personally though. I'd be happy to see a shift over to it. But none of my friends or family use it, so for me it's useless. In that respect I think it's currently more of a twitter replacement than a replacement for Facebook. On twitter you hardly ever converse with people you know, it's more about virtually meeting people and maybe sharing some stuff. On google+ it covers all of the limited creative sharing side of twitter by giving you all the social tools of Facebook, pinterest, 4square, etc. If you want to interact with people you know it's definitely just Facebook at the moment. Yup. i see G+ as a sort of combination of the two (FBook and Twitter) . When people start using G+ I'll move over (I already have an account but it's empty pretty much). But until then it's just a twitter replacement which I don't really need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 That preferring not to drink alcohol is frowned upon. Some people are cool and accept it, but the people who just react negatively and push it on you constantly even when you say no piss me the hell off. you'll find that rather perversley, people will give you more cool points if you hint that you are seriously on the wagon due to previous excess 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seat68 Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 I work on the premise that if its a US show, its a season, if its UK, series. I also never refer to a flat as an apartment, its a flat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Attention grabbing status updates on Facebook. Eg: "well that was a crap day...." "Fed up...." "Tired..." Why....... They're not too bad. You get people (mainly attention seeking women) posting stuff like: "Oh my God! Can't believe that happened" or "I'm absolutely devastated..." Cue a load of people commenting "whats up?", "u ok" etc and then the original poster comments "I'll inbox ya don't want to say on here its private"! Fffffffuuuuuu 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
