@WN: I'm friends with people who are obnoxious as fuck, mostly because I would like to be aware of their bullshit than not I guess. I did defriend someone who posted after Obama was elected "don't worry he'll be assassinated soon" but then accepted when he re-friended me a while later.
@Jubilee: the right-winger I un-friended wasn't really a close friend, so I didn't care what he was up to. so, I feel you on this.
OH! I un-friended someone who made a really racist comment about mexicans, because if I hadn't, I probably would have reached out through the internet and smacked her upside the head with a burrito.
I love the option to stalk too... but unless they post a lot of good material, don't post often but when they do are really interesting, or are crushworthy, then I have no use for them & they get deleted.
I think since I joined facebook I've only ever deleted, like, a dozen people.
@Bizz: Well two different people just told me I get offended too easily by people's facebook bullshit when really I'm just incredulous at how much self involved crap people post. Whereas MY earth-shattering facebook status is "MILEY CYRUS PUT SOME GODDAMN CLOTHES ON."
I just hide the people that post a lot of self-involved crap. If every status update is some variation of "oh woe is me my kids eat up all my time life sux homeless people smell lol" they usually get filtered out.
Yea- I had to shed a person who turned out to be scary. Now he's in jail. I sure know how to pick 'em.
Ug wait, another dude too. Also scary and really aggressive. It was the aggressive/relentless part that got to me, so, well yea. It's gotta be something like that I guess.
(sorry that my whole post here is self indulgent tripe)
I defriend people regularly. Usually people I know and see often. If I see you on a daily basis then chances are I don't need to know everytime your boyfriend bones you. Oof.
Only really with people that I only barely knew like 10 years ago or don't know at all (and don't care). But, I also rarely initiate friendships and ignore a bunch of requests.
I'll clean house every now and then, so if you're someone from highschool that I never talk to or someone who I met at a party from 3 years ago and haven't hung out since, then you're gone.
I've been defriended for having statuses (stati?) that are too vulgar. Like 'Fisting vaginas everywhere.' My boyfriend thinks he's really funny and sneaky.
But otherwise I only delete people that I don't know anymore who are also boring.
@Jubileeeeee I been binge-ing on Harry Potter and also graduating and moping around having no job and eating pretzels and stuff. But I missed the internet.

I never do and am now being made to feel like a weirdo. Is it weird that I like the OPTION to stalk? Jeez.
only if they make me really mad or are ultra conservative and post a lot.
the internet was CREATED for stalking

I do on rare occasions.

p.s. You ARE a weirdo, but that's why I ♥ you, duh.
I've legit defriended like 2 people and once was because someone asked me to and the other was because the guy was TERRIFYING.

Actually, I just unfriended about my entire friend list.
I only left on the people that know me and have talked to me in the past month or so.

did you post this because of Jimmy Kimmel or is that all just a coincedence?
All a coincidence. Your face.
