It’s hard to believe, but there are some people who are not on Facebook. Think of what they are missing. These are some of the things I have learnt from Facebook. Cats and dogs can get on together. Lots of people like cats, lots of people like dogs. Horses like visiting people in hospital. Baby pandas just wanna have fun. Walruses like sleeping on submarines.
You can also learn about people on Facebook, what they are eating at the new restaurant or what got stolen from their van last night. You can even find out about people you actually know. In fact Facebook is the only way you will find out what your family are doing – if you can decipher the cryptic messages and pictures. Are they still stuck broken down on the motorway. Is that their Pyrenean Mountain Dog puppy or their friend’s ? What on earth are they doing at Sheremetyevo International Airport?
What do you post on Facebook? There is no need to bother catching up with emails and phone calls to numerous friends and relatives. If you want everyone to know your latest news just post an enigmatic message. ‘Another hot day on the Nullabor Plain.’ Soon you will be inundated with messages from long lost friends.
Hey hun, what’s up, didn’t the job in Northampton work out?
Or post an ultrasound picture of a black and white alien with the words ‘Tabitha is going to have a baby brother.’
Hugs hun, sooo pleased for you.
But Facebook has more than one page to scroll down; if you are a writer you can have an author page, if you run your own business you can have a page promoting your fantastic products and services. The advantage is that everything on that page is yours, unlike the rest of Facebook, full of boring other people. The only drawback, probably no one is ever going to see it. But just in case anyone accidentally finds themselves at Your Page, make sure your profile picture is sophisticated and professional.
Great summation. Once I had a business page and paid $5.00 to boost a post. I looked at the profiles of the people who liked my post, and all of the profile were fake accounts.

At my age, the hours are short and speed by, haha 🙂 I kept getting friend requests from people pretending to be celebs–it was crazy!

Then there are those who are on it but complain about it all the time [=Husband], those that turn their noses up at it and those that swear they hate it while looking over their partner’s shoulder at it…

Love this post! I came off Facebook a while ago and haven’t missed it. It doesn’t bother me in the slightest that I don’t know what people I don’t see are doing or bragging about. And I can see cute animals at any time! 🐶🐱🐴 😆
