Love all of these posts ya’ll have made here! I had a book face account for several years, and it was fun for a while, but deleted my account sometime ago..was I all wrapped up in for several years? Yes I was... until I had an epiphany of sorts and swore it off... when I left I messaged all my friends and said I was leaving but they could contact me on my cell or email. Amazing how many people still will contact me and say where have you been, or did you see this post etc.. I ask them if they got my message when I left book face, most will say ummm yeah, I say yah, I left that means I don’t get your messages from there. I will say that after blue boy got his ass reamed in congress deleting a book face account became a lot easier.
Besides the fact that bf is insidiously evil and creepy, I got tired of the forum narcissists treating that forum like it was their own fire hydrant to come in and piss on any one or anything they didn’t agree with, I’m sure ya’ll know the type. I still recall the last one, this guy insisted a cooling system that was half full was okay to use.. incredible.
People want their privacy but will willingly give bf access to all of their photo’s and contact information just so they can post a picture or two.... incredible. I had enough “coincidences“ to confirm how sneaky bf is, want a good example of it? Read through the terms of use for the messenger app that will get your attention.
The whole Pavlovian dog thing that happens when people hear an alert tone on their phone and then reach for it.... was in a meeting at work once and sent an email to most in the room regarding a question someone asked.. when the alert tone came in on all of these phones and everyone reached for their phones it just cracked me up. My boss didn’t think my answer to his question as to why I was laughing was very funny though... told him I was laughing at all of the pavlov‘s dogs hastily grabbing their phones.
Too quick and hangoutdoors... I have stopped talking when folks grab their phone or I can tell they stop paying attention for one reason or another for a long time, yeah, I’m an a hole for doing that LOL! But you know what? That just means I don’t waste time on anyone who is not paying attention.
Over the last few years I have endeavored to eliminate anything negative from my life that I have control over. For example, the “news”. 99.1% of what you see on the news has NO direct bearing on your life, and, you have no control over it, the remaining .9% which includes the weather may or may not have direct bearing on your life, and you have no control over it. So why would I watch that tripe that will only serve to upset me? That was the question I asked myself, and as such I have not had tv for the last few years. I can say without a doubt that my life is so much better without it. As well, it allows you to have a clear perspective on things.
2kwik4U-“Why does it seem to have been normalized to consume SOO MUCH media ALL THE TIME.......Have to be playing a game while TV is on in the background as "filler noise"”. It’s just like drinking alcohol, you are a social lepper if you don’t participate in social media and if you don’t drink or drink very little. Look at all of the adds that alcohol companies have, these adds basically show that people cannot have a good time unless you are drinking. Alcohol is another sore spot for me, fully 50% of all vehicle fatalities are alcohol related, yet they banned adds for cigarettes years ago because they are bad for you. It appears that sorosis of the liver and 25,000 deaths a year in car accidents are acceptable.
Biffdotorg-What blew me away were the folks that blindly go out and spend $25-$30k and then ask yahoos in a facebook group how to spend an additional $10K on accessories that they are truly unsure if they will ever need. GO OUT AND ENJOY IT, and then decide if you really need anything else. (that applies here as well). Couldn’t agree more with this statement. I also like how you manage your bf pages and remove those are negative from the page.
With a few notable exceptions this forum is great! I have learned so much about these boats whether it be answers to questions that I have posted or the FAQ section, The only problem with the FAQ section is that it does not play well with apple products. I’ve also made a few acquaintances here via pm’s which have also been great. Having been a moderator on a web page like this one for years I’m truly appreciative of the overall civil discourse among the members here.
My thanks to all of you long timers here who have contributed so much to this forum in all aspects. I hope to be able to bring stuff to the table that will be helpful to the membership here.
