Dumb/Great Facebook Status {merge} [No Names]

I dont get why people would post this. Either A) They're still friends with them on Facebook,
they've got their settings on public (and maybe know this and assume the person will be checking their Facebook page a lot, C) They're 99.7% looking for attention. 
The worst is when people post up saying something like "I've had a "clean-out" of their facebook friends. If you can see this then you made the cut, congratulations"
It's pointless, attention-seeking and just nasty. The klind of thing you do when you're 12, not 30. Two people I know have done this, they both got de-friended pretty fast. I don't want to have "made the cut", thanks very much.0 -

It's not at all ironic.
On Facebook, ppl tlk lyk dis nd brag bou drinkin evry nite tinkin der rapid even tho dey didn even do der leavin nd ar now doin lyk a fas corse nd cnt typ lyk nrml ppl.
Boards, however, has specific fora regarding different topics, so you can talk about whatever interests you with like-minded individuals. And I don't know about you, but I can't remember the last time I saw someone bragging about going out drinking, or posting threads such as "i hd such a hrd day
"..."dnt ask wats rong tho I'm onlee lookn 4 attnshun".
Thus, boards is better for actual conversation, while Facebook is much easier to mock.0 -

Agreed. Boards and Facebook are not similar in any important way. My real name isnt Brain Stroking. Boards is a forum not a social network despite how involved anyone gets in it. Boards has little of the connectivity of facebook. Do you know where i live or who my friends are from boards? no you dont.
What boards does allow is banal superiority to be displayed on a wide scale. Congratulations, welcome to the club0 -

Actually it is very easy to talk with like minded individuals on topics that interest you on facebook too, all you have to do is only add like minded individuals who will talk about topics that interest you, simple. I just don't add the stereotypical txtspk users that you mention. In that way facebook is actually superior to Boards in that you have full control on what type of people you will be exposing yourself to having to read their updates.0 -
