There is a guy that I see on almost every post giving advice to people that honestly doesn't have a clue. Not saying I know everything, but I know enough to know he doesn't know **** and just throws back info he heard from somewhere lol

welcome to the internet.

Maybe I'm behind the times and I'm only 35. But the wife and I don't Facebook, tweet or any of that other crap!! I really don't care to.

I'm not on FB so cant really comment.

My 18yo daughter calls it fakebook, says everyone is pretending to be something they are not.

Same, I could care less, just a waste of time IMO. I don't have time for social media, except for OSO and VOA...

My wife is on Facebook. She rarely posts. She's only on there as that is the only way some of her friends communicate. She shows me posts all the time that are "WTF"??!! Did the world really need to know that? I'm surprised she hasn't shown me a post of someone's bowl movement. I guess it is just a matter of time...

the powerboat swap shop can be pretty entertaining at times.,,,,,never aloss of words for some of those jockeys.i have mixed feelings about facebook.for the longest time I did not have a account.i got it because all my boating friends have it and make boating plans that I was always missing out on.also.I did a trade with a guy on facebook.he had some trs drives and some transmission.i had tried for awhile on oso to find trs parts and transmissions at a decent price.i found this guy in port huron that was looking for a supercharger for a car project he and his son are doing.we traded parts for parts.had my doughts,,,so did he.but everything worked out fine.he got what he wanted,i got the same.i guess what I am saying is,i never thought facebook would be good.but it is.it is what you make of it.

It's bad altogether HVAC pro talk, SVT, anything Facebook related is the devil. Causes a lot of issues. I hate it and love it at te same time. Just to see how fat people have gotten since high school.
