If you don’t like what’s being said, change the conversation.
Yesterday the village idiots of Facebook started doing a thing where they post hundreds of status updates about what they “really feel” about the people they are Facebook friends with. They would assign a number to the friend instead of using their name. (Number 32 is a total bitch, btw.)
A lot of sane and reasonable people thought to themselves “Hey! This is fucking retarded!” and you know what? They were right! Some went as far as to say they would delete their Facebook account.
THE PRINCIPLES I AM ABOUT TO REVEAL WILL WORK WITH ANY SOCIAL NETWORK.
You don’t owe anyone a responsibility to be friends with them on a social network. Ever. Not your boss, not your family, not your mistress. The idea that you would delete your account instead of delete them as a friend is dumb. Flat out dumb. They aren’t entitled to be your social network friend. It doesn’t mean you have to stop being friends in real life. It means they don’t know how to use the internet.
So get out there! Unfriend, unfollow, repeat. Early and often.
