It may be spook training from years ago, but don’t look for me in Facebook. I don’t even like my picture being taken.
I’m with you. I see many of my younger friends who have pages. Some are decent, entailing mostly an internet wallet-ful of photos for friends to check. Others are clearly using the forum for what used to be silly diary entries that embarrassed us a few years later. “I love X”, “He looked extra long at me today in class”, “She smiled at me”, etc. “Kids” in their twenties are used to conducting relationships on line or over the phone. Others give a moment-to-moment account of their day as if anyone were truly interested in knowing what time they woke up this morning, what they ate for breakfast, how long they took to brush their teeth.
What I don’t care for is the tendency to post photos of people besides the page owner, without permission. I really hate to find a photo of me on a niece’s page, or accounts of something I did on a friend’s page. I am an ultra-private person and I resent being vulnerable to this kind of exploitation. And, like you, I feel a profound discomfort about the whole “forever in ether” thing.
Someone posted all your information on Facebook.
Lots of pictures, too.
Good job staying in shape, by the way.
