The Point & Laugh at how people communicate thread

so wait you're saying that friends might hang out? i'm gonna need a link there chief.

www.facebook.com

[rjs246]

Fail. Facebook was created so that friends wouldn't have to actually hand out.

[Sgt PSN]

I guess most of my friends are doing it wrong then because a lot of them use it as a means to invite others to social gatherings. 

[rjs246]

Yes, they are doing it wrong.

[Sgt PSN]

Can I direct them to your page to use as an example?

i dont like being invited to do anything via facebook but i get incensed when a friend invites both me and my girl to something...i think its safe to assume that if you invite one half of a couple that that person will notify the other half of the event

so whenever this happens
right after i see that my girl has responded with a solid yes or no
i answer "maybe"

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Dude, you are hard core.

Just out of curiosity, what's the method you prefer to recieve invitations?  Formal invites sent through the mail?  Telephone call?  Email?  Fax?  Carrier Pigeon?  Skywriting?

a phone call would be nice....but an email is acceptable

[Sgt PSN]

So how is an invite over facebook any different than an email? 

[ice grillin you]

for starters an email is way more personal....secondly i hate having my name being passed around facebook...i like my privacy

[rjs246]

While I agree with you that facebook and facebook invites are awful, it's absolutely ridiculous for you to claim that you value your privacy. Everyone on this board knows more about you than they know about their own parents. Every thought you have on every subject gets posted here.
