Facebook is going away the way google is. Screw google, I'm sticking with my AskJeeves stock.

i dunno.

i think there is a bit of truth to it. I've already seen a rapid decline in use by a great majority of my "friends". Just looking at my timeline, there is really only a small percentage of users.

kids these days have migrated to twitter and snapchat, it seems.

Not all garbage.
35-year-old suspect shared a wanted photo of himself and made fun of police for not being able to find him. He was arrested two hours later

Those stupid quizzes people take to see "who they are" whether it's a Disney princess, Golden Girl, or character on Big Bang Theory can go away now. I can tolerate the ones that actually tell you something like how many places you've visited, how conservative v. liberal you are, etc. Ugh.

I really, really hope the end result is just determined by a random number generator.

Was it one of those mandatory quizzes where if you don't take it, the internet dies.
