The Great Facebook rant

I’ll leave you facebook….

Transcript after the bump…

“Call me crazy, but when facebook opened its API I shut my eyes and ran away crying.

So maybe that is exaggerating a little.

But seriously, I used to enjoy this place and now I want to gauge out my eyes.

I like to call it: myspace 2.0, and it really is getting the bad, just without the error messages and spam.

When I got into college there was nothing more exciting than getting that email address to log into the hidden fortress that was facebook.

A place full of embarrassing pictures that could ruin a college student’s reputation, a place that employers and kids were dying to get their hands into.

Today its all gone wrong.

Not only is it open to those people but for some reason Mark Zuckerberg is trying to make his social network the next google or something.

You should’ve taken the money Mark.

Well I’m not gonna stick around for myspace 2.0.

It might be better designed but I’m no fool.

There is nothing more annoying than cruising the profiles, listening to my itunes library and then suddenly the spice girls come blaring over your speakers like some bad reunion concert and you’ve got to scroll 17 feet sideways and cross over the pink fairy animated .gif background and advertisements for dating services and stupid flash games to pause the song.

Your heart is racing and your ears are ringing, all because your stupid friend, who is really your younger brother’s friend who shouldn’t be on facebook in the first place added you to their top friends and thought they were funny by adding some song that no one thinks is funny BUT THEM…

I hate it.

I’m not sticking around for that.

If its a funeral facebook wants, then they’ve got it, I’ll leave right now.

Seriously.”
