You would think that people from your past that contact you on Facebook would only remember you as a dork but the opposite seems to be the truth. I would rather having them keep believing I was cool and not disappoint them with the truth.

Why I Hate Facebook
You would think that people from your past that contact you on Facebook would only remember you as a dork but the opposite seems to be the truth. I would rather having them keep believing I was cool and not disappoint them with the truth.

Cal, sooner or later you're going to have to face facts. Somewhere along the way between being a dork in high school and today, you became cool.
You just have to accept it, grab hold of it with both hands and wield it like Mjolnar, because it's yours and yours alone.
I hate facebook too. They disabled my kid's account because she changed her email address and they will ONLY fix the account if we contact them through the ERASED email account which we keep telling them we can not do because it no longer exists. They have no sympathy. They made a 14 year old girl cry.
I'd say I hope that weighs heavy on their souls, but I think it's clear they are soulless.
One thing i've learned from the weird and improbable international popularity that posting my 1976 Geek's Journal blog has found online is that my ostracized 1976 self would be considered cool today! Cuz Geeks are finally cool! I am SO jealous of my 17 year old self!
Thanks for saying that MD. It was the best way to express the way I am feeling these days.
Coro...that is evil to take a young girls facebook away. I imagine this cute boy asking for her facebook addy and her having to say she doesn't have one...but she does have a snail mail addy and a telephone. Sad.
I agree with you Booksteve. My 17 year old self was the coolest kid ever and if I could go back and give him just a few pieces of advice, he would have developed into a GOD.
"he would have developed into a GOD" If there is a God of cool , you sir a a deity.
are a would work even better there, 'eh.
What I've discovered is that, if I was a dork, the people I was in high school with have become dorks too! Or, as I prefer to see it, they've come to realize the inherent coolness of things I knew or believed all the time.
