Should we all be "Friends"

[Terry M.]

What is the reason to make a "friend" besides competing with Paris Hilton or Britney Spears for the most number of "friends" on the web? What am I missing?

Does somebody need a hug?

Absolutely nothing in my opinion. Why anyone cares a wit about that stuff is beyond me.

Terry, everyone wants to know what you had for lunch today. Seriously, little value in this...

Re: Should we all be "Friends"

You got that right.

And, Terry, won't you PLEASE be my friend?

Re: Should we all be "Friends"

This "friend" business reminds me of the numerous Facebook requests to "like" someone or something. I am OK, and so are you -- remember that? I don't need a cadre of friends to feel good about myself, and none of you should either. We are all members of the same organization. That is good enough for me.

I really don't want to go beyond: "Won't you be my neighbor?"

Wasn't there a vote on this new "facebook" thing? How did that turn out?

Sure, I can be your neighbor, but it will need to be ...."tomorrow, tomorrow...we'll start the day tomorrow with a smile...for you"...

I see I have no friends.

Not sure I want any.

Is that good or bad?

Paris Hilton and Britney Spears.

I am sure where those two members of the TDB we would have no problem attracting younger members; but us older folks might expire sooner.

Can I be your friend too, Terry?

Seriously, I signed up for Facebook 2-3 months ago to keep up with:

1. Family. Cousins, Aunts, Uncles, Brothers, Sisters, etc., etc.
2. Friends. Old friends from high school, college, and other earlier years.
3. Friends. NCRS, NCCC, and other auto related activities.
4. Neighbors. From my old neighborhoods and my new neighborhood.

I'm not competing with anyone.

And, I'll confess that neither Britney Spears nor Paris Hilton are my "up close and personal" buds on Facebook, but maybe I'll check into it.
