I Finally Did It

You didn't pass those on, Jo Ann? Did all the dire threats and warnings you received with those messages really happen to you/your family? And you LET that happen? I am so ashamed of you! How could anyone pass that crap on? Are all those people stuck in kindergarten? It makes no sense to me, whatsoever! I'm happy to be free of that crap! I have better things to do than send doodoo to people I like and/or love... SMH!

And now I am done with all of it, I couldn't be happier. I hate all that posting of that stuff from other websites I think you know what I mean. Matter of fact I hate most of what goes on in facebook.

So...now you UNDERSTAND why I rarely visit facebook. lol.

I have received so many invitations for that game...so far I never had time. I mean, I could either be playing the game and forgetting other friends, or be with friends. I thought being friends is saner for now. May be in future. :)

I like it for that reason, to keep in touch with family, but there is so much other mess I just got tired of it. I haven't been here for a good two weeks or more and again I have things to do and sometimes just have to take a break from all social media although I love myLot

@fishtiger58 I am going to eliminate those that cause my eyes to bleed. I need my beautiful baby blues to see!

And now I won't see any of it. I should have done this years ago. I feel so much better about deleting my account.

@ElusiveButterfly I hear that I don't blame you one bit.

I feel like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders. No more garbage no more stress, life is too short.

It's just awful. People post about their personal lives and then others leave nasty comments and the original poster is mad. Well then don't post about your personal life. And the political mess is worse than awful. So very much done with it all.

@fishtiger58 You can have a look at the security and privacy options. You can restrict a lot the number of people who can view your profile. Think about this, you have 15 days to decide.

@LadyDuck I do have time to think more thoroughly about my decision I might give that a try, but seriously at this point I just want done with it.

I should do that as well, but I am so sick of all of it that I think I shall stick with my decision to delete it completely.

Many do just for family reasons, I see my family so I really don't need facebook for that.

Heck I don't always like what some of my friends get into @fishtiger58 some of it seems really racist so I simply ignore it ..... most of my friends are Hispanic and when I see what they post sometimes it gives me the impression they hate whites.

@rebelann I don't even care if people are racist or crabby or ignorant. I just don't want to see any of it anymore for any reason.

I'm actually not having problems just sick of seeing everyone else's garbage.

@fishtiger58 i don't blame ya, hon. like i said, i only stay there fer the young'uns who seem incapable'f sendin' pics'f those sweet grands. we all need a break from time to time, been thinkin' 'f doin' the same myself (from the puter'n general). need to concentrate my efforts elsewhere :D big hugs!

@crazyhorseladycx I hardly used the computer the last few weeks. when it's nice out I have to go fishing lol.

Everyone tells me to open a new account and be more selective, but I just don't have the heart to want to do it again. I think I will stay here at mylot although I took a few weeks break from it as well. Haven't been here in like 3 weeks.

@fishtiger58 I'm glad there are no regrets. Where have you been hiding? I haven't seen you in ages. I'm glad you're back.

@just4him Out camping and just taking a general break from all the internet stuff. I'm glad to be back I have missed you and this place.

Thanks Valerie I haven't regretted it at all.

Rubbish rubbish and yet more rubbish I have yet to regret my deleting my account and I don't think I ever will.

It's all so much garbage. I'm glad to be done with it.

You are quite like me. :)

@trivia79 Indeed it is.

It feels so good not to be there anymore.

@fishtiger58 if you really don't have an attachment with some things, moving on is so easy

I am too and I don't miss it one bit.

@Hanyouyomi It seems people think they can be nasty and rude because they are on the internet and no one knows who they are. I don't agree with that at all so I choose to stay away from that mess.

@fishtiger58 "It seems?" Good sir, that's the case. But I guess people use it too as a release, because they to be so reserved and conservative in every day life. It's not something I agree with either, if anything I prefer my approach:"Acknowledge that you're talking to real people, but don't give the debates you get into much weight..." I tend to lose sight of this though, as certain topics tend to get me riled up. Like the misconception from some of these kids that "anime aren't cartoons," and "anime aren't for kids..." As a guy who grew up in the 90s before Japanese cartoons were called "anime," who has seen several anime aimed at kids, the ignorance and insecurity that comes with whenever I point out the facts galls me at times... But that's why I don't bother with politics, because I merely see two ignorant parties arguing ignorant points of view...

@fishtiger58 I go for days without opening FB. My settings let me know if a close friend or a family member have updated or sent me a message or anything. I open it then and catch up a bit.

It's been almost a month now and I have to say I don't miss it one bit.

@Shellyann36 That's a good way to do it, I don't think I had mine set up that way. But I'm not sure and it sure doesn't matter now. I find I don't miss it.

@fishtiger58 Thank you so much for that. I would like to be a good and effective writer just like my favorite author "Paulo Coelho."

I couldn't be happier I don't miss it a bit. I would say your English is pretty darn good.

@annierose you are very welcome

@fishtiger58 Yeah I knew I haven't seen you in a while. I am glad your back here!

@LovingMyBabies Thanks I did miss you guys.

I'm glad it's deleted. I took a break from myLot as well, probably haven't been here in like 3 weeks. Sometimes I just have to not do the whole social media thingy.

To the point of ridiculous, and just not worth my time.

@fishtiger58 The only time that I used FB really was when I was writing on Squidoo.

@marlina That site is gone now isn't it?

@fishtiger58 I wondered where you were - I haven't seen you around lately.

@jaboUK Yea sometimes I just have to take a break from myLot.

I actually haven't had any arguments and the like, just sick of that stupid website.

that could very well be, and yes people are entitled to their own hateful opinions I have just chosen not to see it anymore. It was a major step but now that I have done it I'm so glad I did.

@LindaCPearson I can understand that, it's just not worth it to me. Life is short I don't want that drama in my life anymore, even if it's not directed at me, It never is but you still see it all the darn time.

@fishtiger58 It probably is a very smart move. I'm not there but I get more and more angry every day.
