Not on Facebook?

I got off Facebook many years ago after XXX-rated pictures of me doing very explicit XXX-rated things surfaced and my name was tagged on those pictures. It was the most embarrassing night of my college life and life overall. I ended up real drunk in a limo with some 10 people ("friends"). Things heated up and I was kissing a super drunk girl I was hanging out with that day, but people kept yelling "Blow Job! Blow Job!" and I... Well, you can figure it out...

Pictures were taken and then both of us threw up on everyone and all over, ruined the night, more pictures taken.

The funny part is that the girl had a BF and he was in the limo too. I had no idea, but she thought she was doing him, not me. Can you imagine watching as a random dude is making out with your GF and more right in front of you? They actually got married a few weeks later...

Anyway, that was in 2009 and I deleted my account after seeing pclictures of my naked ass. Now I find that it's "sketchy and weird" not to be on Facebook.

What do I do? I am not sure who and how many people saw those pics. They were supposedly taken down, but I needed employment out of college and took no chances (so deleted FB account). I generally dislike Facebook. It's intellectually lazy.

What do I tell people when they ask why I am not on Facebook? What are some valid non-sketchy reasons? It's not like I can tell them the truth...
 
intrusive, childish, addicting, boring, uncomfortable, dislike advertisements, afraid of identity theft, prefer to spend your limited time on _____ site.

you could always just say "I have an account but i don't use it - then add - i prefer to be contacted via _____ site. etc..

Just tell them the truth: Facebook is trashy, and you don't waste your time on it. It's a gossip site. They don't need to know your history.

Facebook is dying anyway. The only people who use it are grand parents. They use it to look at photos of their grand-babies spitting up and drooling.
 
Your not obligated to have every social media platform. If you want somebody to be in contact with you / vice versa swap telephone numbers or what ever platform you use.
 
I still have my account open only for the messaging system and international friends. But I have no personal information and everything is private.

I've had everyone on unfollow for about 8 months now and FB Purity removes all the advertisements and other rubbish. My news-feed is a desolate wasteland except for some political/news pages I read. I think socko is right, there's a shift happening with social media; although I don't think Facebook as an online entity is going anywhere, it's days as a 'social media platform' are fading.
 
I like to keep in touch and post pictures so my family and friends can see what's going on in my life. Other than that, I don't post very often.
 
My teenage daughter says Facebook is for old people. Snapchat and Instagram for now are the cool media apps but something else will replace them soon enough. There will always be ebbs and flows. Privacy concerns is the flavour of the month until something else comes along.

If you really want to use Facebook as an employment tool simply set up a dummy account with a shortened name or nickname and fill it full of safe "work friendly" content. Unfortunately if your name is linked directly to a photo they will find it if they really want to, Facebook or not
 
Say it's boring?
Or just set up another account with a different email address and keep it super public. There is a way that you can set it up so things don't appear on your timeline unless you approve them. So, for example, if I took a picture and posted it and then tagged you in it, you would have to "approve" it for it to show up on your timeline.
And just keep it private so it's only your close friends on it.
 
facebook eats up time . why is it weird that you dont like it?

you are entitles to not do something . its choice

Is it really that weird not to be on facebook?

It's lame and you really don't need another reason.
 
I use no social media, And I never have.

Almost none of my friends use it either. Not a coincidence, I wouldn't tend to enjoy the company of your average facebook user most likely.

It's not that hard.
 
i loathe facebook, though i do have a page - i can verify id through facebook, and i don't care if they spam me. then again, there's only one person i'll text with, and then i spell out every word. i never liked it, used to call it 'prince spelling', then there was the boondocks texting rant, and i just denounced it. i don't like talking on the phone - get to business, get off the phone. my dad, when he's finished saying what he has to say, just hangs up. i write rambling emails, like people did in the post-only days and love to talk in person, though with only one person at a time
 
Just tell people you don't go on any sites like facebook, linked in, etc. and you don't have to go into the reasons why you don't.

This.
Anyone that judges you for not being on facebook is the "sketchy and weird" one, in my opinion.

There are countless reasons for not using that data-mining, privacy-invading, superficial social media platform.

This is the latest controversy surrounding FB's insanely prudish censorship policies:

The likes of Mark Zuckerberg already rule the media. Now they want to censor the past

There is nothing sketchy about making an informed decision to boycott based on things like that - and besides, it sounds like your privacy has already been grossly breached by social media - what does it matter that you were intoxicated?
Shame on whoever posted that shit online, not you. I wouldn't want to participate in a culture where posting compromising photos of people and tagging it to their personal account for all friends and family to see is considered normal.

As far as X-rated gossipy pics, they go away with time.

Also whoever posted them, you outta check their facebook and see where they work and sue the fuck out of them if they are just a corporate scumbag anyways. Revenge porn is not cool and well, I could easily justify it to myself to sue for money cuz it would set a precedent against revenge porn and believe me its no fun to go through.

With the recent revenge porn laws these people would be happy to go to civil court instead of criminal court.

Anyways, make a new account and just don't add people from your past. Use an alias and if anyone asks why, say you are protecting your privacy which you are.

I don't accept friend request from people I don't know and if there are any red flags then I block the person and if it is someone I know and I will be honest and say the content of their page is something I do not want to be publicly linked to.

When you date be very careful of what the person puts up like gun pics get you on a special list even if you have a ccw, I know this from first hand experience because of my ex gf's page. She had told me she took down the pics but she had not, well that means is if johny law ever pays you a visit, they don't knock. Even if you take the person off your fb page it doesn't matter so as trashy as fb is, it is best to see what type of dumb shit people are doing on there.

I never let anyone tag me in a photo and remove it and block that from happening but I am also pretty careful of who I add and don't hesitate to unfriend. Yeah you can get stalked a bit via fb but don't do shit like post where you go to eat, the IRS might find it interesting as your psycho ex will.

So all that being said, I don't like facebook, don't like how it has changed culture, and don't like how you find out people you are friends with a fucking morons and really need to get off the soap box cuz what they are shouting about is dumb, ignorant, and can get them and their friends grouped in a special database.

Since the patriot act the NSA, CIA, ATF, IRS, and local law enforcement does collect metadata and its kinda like they make lists of potential "threats" and facebook is just an excellent way to fuck up your life.

You are not the only person who revenge porn has happened to and I am a man. It was mainly cheap shots by bitter ex's at women I was seeing but yeah there are photos of me floating around and they were taken without my knowledge from me getting out the shower to my morning wood while I am sleeping to me having intercourse its out there and I didn't take the photos.

It takes a special kind of sick fuck to photograph two people having sex and put it online, but it happened to me and I suppose you as well. The thing is no one cares or talks about it now. It is so in the past now that it doesn't matter but still I know how it feels.

I am still surprised that someone fucking taped me fucking in my car and did see the camera flash but the picture was already uploaded to internet before I could beat the fucker up and he has no money and if he photographed that I would imagine he had something incriminating as well.

The other photos were taken by a girl who was just so proud to be fucking me that she sent it to ALL her female friends. While I am flattered and was in pretty good shape I still would prefer not to have those photos floating around and people still show them to me and those were like 5 years ago so yeah, lame.

I doubt what someone else did will affect me much, I mean if anything I could have pressed charges or sued but it would have brought more attention but if any of these scumbags had any money than I might have sued just cuz of how fucking lame it was and that it did kinda fuck up some good relationships but the damage was already done.

So just select better friends and you don't have to let the whole world know you are on facebook.

If you let those immature a childish things people did get to you, guess what, they win. The best revenge would be to go on with your life.

I can think of all these nasty lil things you could do to the same ppl with the same video if they are in and times in their life when they would really not want that to happen but that is highly criminal and not very mature.

So these people sound like they lived for high school and well prom was their last hurrah and were able to draw about a bit more high school crap with this bullshit.

You moved on, so just keep moving on. I am telling you those photos and videos will go away and they have for me and the women in them.

As for the people who did it to me, well they are pathetic human beings to start with and downright losers and don't take rejection to well as to the point of videotaping who turned them down and who they fucked and as to take photos just to show off having fucked someone.

Says alot more about them then it will say about you. Everyone has sex, don't let somebody shame you for having sex, it is an invasion of privacy sure but what goes around comes around whether or not you feel the need to seek revenge is up to you, I advise against it. I didn't do anything other than tell them they were pathetic.
 
I've never had any social media, besides BL lol :D

i just tell ppl I don't have one, I don't give a reason..I've never had ppl say anything besides..wow I couldn't do without social media or something like that
 
Who cares if you're not on Facebook? I've never had Facebook, only Twitter. If people think you're weird for not having Facebook, they're fucking idiots. I don't want family or people I used to know finding me. I'm not interested in staying in contact. Just say Facebook never interested you.
