how Facebook should be used.

Bootinator · 2012-10-29T12:15:49+00:00

Looks like you're messaging the one ring

DeSaad · 2012-10-29T12:53:00+00:00

I remember this conversation taking place elsewhere on Reddit a few months ago. Can't be arsed to look for it now, but I remember the contest part, so even if this isn't a fake series of messages through iMessage, it was copypasted from somebody else.

SHITS_IN_YOUR_CEREAL · 2012-10-29T12:22:23+00:00

I'm more worried that the dad named his kid ffddiijjffuoossjjffuff

Rasta_Man69 · 2012-10-29T12:50:55+00:00

haha you didnt make your dads top 10........nice.

slavy · 2012-10-29T12:55:47+00:00

So... sort of like MySpace?

stableblond · 2012-10-29T13:42:15+00:00

Same here

guyboy · 2012-10-29T12:23:44+00:00

Sorry, but her name is still legible. The md5 hash of her full name is 58563e766149aaa24c6bad6b01cc2502, correct?

Or maybe it's f66ba91ea0376ffdc2cd22db2e16aa80, depending on the last letter. Definitely one of those.

omgihaveanaccount · 2012-10-29T12:56:35+00:00

Danielle's dad is such a riot.

Taviiiiii · 2012-10-29T12:42:37+00:00

I spent so much time trying to read the original name that I got annoyed with the pic and closed it without reading.

jackreichert · 2012-10-29T14:45:58+00:00

this exists as a real service called path except 150 friends... It's pretty cool.

Molotopheles · 2012-10-29T11:55:48+00:00

One of my friends keeps his always at 420 friends. I am amazed I've made it so long on the list.

myeyesdilate · 2012-10-29T13:05:08+00:00

10 elite friends and his offspring aren't part of it?

loony636 · 2012-10-29T13:34:43+00:00

FOR FUCKS SAKE.

Facebook is about having a social network. That includes acquaintances, close friends, overseas friends, distant friends and friends you haven't talked to in a while.

The superiority complex of people who don't have Facebook or have few friends is completely ridiculous; don't use Facebook, that's fine, but don't make us seem vapid for wanting to keep in touch with people. Just because they use the word 'friends' instead of 'follower' doesn't mean it should be looked down upon.

FFS PEOPLE!

javabrewer · 2012-10-29T12:51:11+00:00

Is your dad Jack Byrnes? Because that sounds like the circle of trust.

hairyharryli · 2012-10-29T13:07:02+00:00

I believe there is a social networking site that actually uses this system. The premise was that it was implausible to be in close contact with more than 7 (not sure if this is the correct number) people in any given time. Thus, one would have to delete contacts in order to add a new one.

Horse_Guy · 2012-10-29T13:22:53+00:00

so basically the myspace top friends

mindtaker87 · 2012-10-29T13:42:25+00:00

I think this was one of the first posts I saw on reddit when I first joined. Brings back memories.

MC_Kreeper · 2012-10-29T13:47:26+00:00

Hmmmmm... Sounds familiar... myspace.com

jonramz · 2012-10-29T13:48:30+00:00

This is the 1st thing I thought of....

APock · 2012-10-29T13:51:15+00:00

But then how would all the "girlz" get so many "u so hot" comments on the pictures they post every single fucking day? They need as many friends as possible!

duchovny · 2012-10-29T13:51:29+00:00

truck87bp · 2012-10-29T13:52:35+00:00

Crap, I thought I was in Facebook and realized I was in Reddit. Front page has nothing but personal junk...Where's the frickin NEWS! 2800 hits for a cat? Time to switch back to DIGG.

jsnyderows · 2012-10-29T13:57:31+00:00

It must suck to be one of the least-desirables when you're his son.

confickerl · 2012-10-29T13:58:02+00:00

even his child was not worthy of being among the elite

MomTackey · 2012-10-29T14:02:34+00:00

thats like myspace...those were the days

ExcellentGary · 2012-10-29T14:11:07+00:00

Hey guys, I'd like to present to you my patented anonymizing service to put up funny screengrabs from your iOS device.

So what you do, is take an amount of f's, d's and j's in a serif font and, like so [presenter demonstrates] paste them liberally over the text you seek to hide.

Board member #1: "Erm, excuse me if I'm being an ignoramus, but why don't you just cut the text out leaving it blank?"

Presenter: "Why don't I what? [pauses] Okay you know what, fuck you guys and fuck this shit. This idea is patentable and progressive and not stuck in the stone age like you fucks. I'm leaving!"

Board member #2: "Oh, before you leave, I can still read what the text says. What does 'REPOSTER IS A FAGGOT' mean?".

ExtraLevel · 2012-10-29T14:18:58+00:00

Danielle Nader's dad uses facebook the right way.

thergrim · 2012-10-29T14:26:11+00:00

Facebook already endlessly recycles the same stale joke over and over again.

Plastastic · 2012-10-29T14:40:30+00:00

If you're a douche, yes.

SwedishReply · 2012-10-29T14:50:10+00:00

I actually use it like that.. but my number is 50

twist3dl0gic · 2012-10-29T14:53:55+00:00

My boyfriend does this, but his limit is 100 people. He says that he can't even name 100 people he talks to.

jdsamford · 2012-10-29T14:55:50+00:00

Danielle Hader

Purp · 2012-10-29T15:01:28+00:00

can we create an /r/inaneTextMessages for this shit please?

thehighhobo · 2012-10-29T15:10:20+00:00

I do that, only with 69 friends, for obvious reasons

VETTE_50_TH · 2012-10-29T15:16:30+00:00

Tell Danielle Hader I said hello mate.

brunoiip · 2012-10-29T15:18:19+00:00

Nice way to cover the name.

sbsb27 · 2012-10-29T15:20:23+00:00

He's not friends with his dad...so dad unfriended his son because he wasn't interesting enough?

marqattack · 2012-10-29T15:27:00+00:00

I love playing this game!

TrueAmurrican · 2012-10-29T15:30:59+00:00

You know, OP, if you are worried about the privacy of the name of the person you are speaking to in a text like this, you could always change their name in the phone before taking the screenshot!

Herp_Dee_Derp · 2012-10-29T15:43:02+00:00

His own son isn't desirable enough

maelfyn · 2012-10-29T15:53:13+00:00

Sounds like myspace's top 8 circa 2005.

tehbertl · 2012-10-29T15:53:52+00:00

That's how I do it too, only with a different sized limit. Works really nice.

justAlex13 · 2012-10-29T15:58:39+00:00

I have been doing this wrong the whole time...

billdietrich1 · 2012-10-29T16:12:04+00:00

And now please dictate to everyone exactly how they must use email. And then dictate exactly how everyone must use Reddit. And Twitter.

hust1adarabb1t · 2012-10-29T16:12:47+00:00

The kid doesn't even fit in the dad's elite club. Sucks.

Taisen91 · 2012-10-29T16:43:31+00:00

What if I told you, I don't have 10 friends.

Biggyhead · 2012-10-29T16:48:50+00:00

I do this also but I restrict my friends to about 100, but its not uncommon for me to delete family members for newer more exciting friends.

Chompski1213 · 2012-10-29T17:06:29+00:00

Mmmm.. love the smell of reposts in the morning.

OfficerMudkip · 2012-10-29T17:14:44+00:00

So he uses it like Myspace? How hilarious and clever.

t0md0g · 2012-10-29T17:36:17+00:00

Or just don't use it at all...

momm3 · 2012-10-29T17:38:12+00:00

I already do this, but with 50 people.

NeoSpartacus · 2012-10-29T18:09:47+00:00

I miss top 8 too...

DNABatman · 2012-10-29T18:13:42+00:00

I keep mine below 30, right now I'm at 27.

brakstone91 · 2012-10-29T19:15:39+00:00

Good job on covering up your last name, not so much on the first Danielle

hawkeyes907 · 2012-10-29T19:36:10+00:00

repost from hell

nbkwoix · 2012-10-29T20:22:18+00:00

Look at me I'm sooooo non conformist talking badly about Facebook.

captainfreiheit · 2012-10-29T20:54:15+00:00

Brilliant. I think I'm going to do that with my facebook. I'm unsatisfied with the last...purge.

SuperSluttySadSluts · 2012-10-29T20:56:38+00:00

Anyone else thing the way he blocked out the name at the top was kindof cool? ...i personally have not seen this before.

Persiankobra · 2012-10-29T21:39:20+00:00

Does anyone remember this not just being a repost of other past messages, but on 4chan board years ago?

ImaBlackBelt · 2012-10-29T22:02:11+00:00

Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrepost

Notloc24 · 2012-10-30T00:19:16+00:00

looks like your dad would rather hang out that 10 other people than you. Daddy problems? Become a stripper!

gocougs11 · 2012-10-30T00:22:07+00:00

Back when I was a big stoner I did this at 420 friends for a couple of months...

Rixxer · 2012-10-30T01:43:54+00:00

♫ "Got people beggin' for my top 8 spaces" ♫

AnonTheTerrible · 2012-10-30T02:04:41+00:00

I do the same thing but with 40 friends.

ironpotato · 2012-10-30T04:21:46+00:00

I like that his son isn't on that exclusive list. That says something.

donthurtthisguy · 2012-10-30T06:27:35+00:00

I suddenly REALLY wanna be friends with his dad...

Phoequinox · 2012-10-29T12:37:54+00:00

Ugh. That's a weirdly effective edit. I try to make out the name and only hear the jumbled letters in my head. What a mindfuck.

codecx81 · 2012-10-29T13:07:07+00:00

I wiped out my original facebook in 2008. Opened up a new one about a year ago. I added people I actually, physically talk to and hang out with on a regular basis & turned off all the stupid privacy BS.

That way, if people from my past or friends of friends wanted to, they could browse through my stuff and see how I am doing/what I am doing with my life without needlessly asking for my friendship. Really, that's the way it used to be.

I state plainly, if you want to talk to me, message me or email me. If someone friend requests w/o trying to strike up a conversation then they remain in the 'pending requests'. Facebook is not a card game or a popularity contest. It is a network of human beings and I wish more people would treat it as such.

I do kinda wish it had an "X # of people viewed your profile" like LinkedIn does. I don't really need to know who went on the page, but I like metrics & page counts. Not for anything else, just for me.

tothebrothel · 2012-10-29T13:35:02+00:00

this is how reposts should be reposted.. op didn't claim ownership of OC. good job. today op was not a fag.

digbus · 2012-10-29T12:48:19+00:00

oooh another repost, how original reddit

pauloat · 2012-10-29T12:44:59+00:00

My number is 150, if someone new request me and i find him/her more friendly that one of the 150 I unfriend someone. And when a strange ask for my fb i just told "i only use it for my close family, take my mail and write me anytime you want2

velkyr · 2012-10-29T13:19:39+00:00

This is a repost from a long time back. I know that, because I took the advice in the original, and I removed all but 10 friends. My friends list stays at 10, and I have 3 in "queue" right now. As soon as someone posts something religious, something stupid, or something completely ignorant, they are removed, the the first in queue is accepted.
