So Facebook has become an everyday part of life for most people, including myself. It makes it easy to reconnect with friends from elementary school, college, and long lost neighbors. I can keep up with my massive family and check out their photos to see what they have been up to. It really is convenient. When you go out with a group of people, you can expect to see photos from the night within 24 hours. “Tag me!” has become a normal phrase in the English vocabulary.
At this point I have 4,624 friends. I think the limit is 5,000 friends. For the most part, complete strangers have added me to their list. I usually add everyone…unless their profile creeps me out. But now I am at the point where my newsfeed is filled with information about complete strangers.
And you know what really annoys me? When people that ADDED me complain about what I post on my Facebook page. “Jaime, your friend adds fill up my newsfeed, can you change your settings?” “Can you stop posting things about the wedding contest?” “Are you using your facebook page to solicit people to go to your blog?” “You should not buy a dog from a breeder, you need to adopt on from a shelter. Buying one from a breeder is just wrong an inhumane.” Guess what people, I really don’t care what you think. And if you have a problem about what I am putting on MY facebook page, please remove me from your friend list. I won’t get mad I promise!
But the thing is, I think people have a problem removing others from their Facebook friends because they actually enjoy complaining about what is on other people’s pages. They have slight infatuations with checking out other people’s photos and daily updates and they can’t handle not having access to those people’s lives. But I think they should let go and “defriend” them. I mean really, what it the point of checking out someone’s page if what they says just irritates you and causes you to comment in a negative way?
So, tonight I am going to start by removing everyone from my friend list that I do not know. I apologize in advance to those people that we kind but I am tired of dealing with those who are not.
Remember “If you don’t have something nice to say, don’t say anything at all!” And if you don’t like what someone has to say on their Facebook, DEFRIEND THEM!! 
Jaime,
I am your friend on facebook and love to read your blog. Please do not defriend me on their, its Jennifer Boyce Crowther. You do not know me, but I think that you and Erik are awesome. I saw you on survivor China and you too were some of my favorites. I love the things you post about and your blog. You are a great inspiration too me and I love to see your pics and you do not take up too much space for me!
Jenny
Good for you Jamie!
Ughhh gah, I totally agree with you Jaim. I just put everyone that I don’t know on my limited profile. They really can’t see any updates. But I still have them all over my newsfeed. I had to stop getting on the chat too b/c I was bombarded, and then people would get mad when I wouldn’t say anything back! I am sure I’ll defriend some of the people I don’t know too.
