    I know a number of people who would agree with everything you say and try and sell themselves as very genuine however the truth behind it can be very different if you look a bit deeper.

    No harm in it really as these people are doing no damage to anyone and are generally positive, What i find strange is the people who follow them (on facebook) and appear to believe that these people are exactly as they portray themselves. Hard to know are these people naive or are they joining in on the BS train themselves.

    Maybe i should do the same myself but i think i would rather call a spade a spade, Either way i don't think i could keep a straight face when talking bull.

    If you're over the age of 20 and still on facebook you have mental issues.

    If someone I knew agreed with everything I said I'd be wondering what's wrong with them.

    If your not on Facebook and your over 20 it just means you have no friends!

    I agree with you

    In fairness, CB19Kevo, modern society as a whole is total BS, in almost every way.

    I agree.

    But what the now is Johnny facebook in yes damn the black twitter. Yes it is something great spade call it a spade straight face. Is people deeper yes moon.

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    I was talking to a fella last night, he'd be in his 40's I'd say, and he was telling me about how much of a liverpool fan he is.

    He was telling me that he was over in Liverpool last week and ran into luis suarez.
    Not only did he meet suarez, but he ended up on suarez's house smoking cigars with him and drinking with him.

    And apparently suarez is coming over to the local gaa club in 3 weeks to give every member of the club a new pair of diadora boots.

    I cant wait to meet him when he's over ;)

    Compulsive liars are a weird sort.Sometimes they'll even contradict themselves from one sentence to the next,just nod and agree seems to be the best policy.
