I may be getting old

**Mom** · 8th July 2014, 20:14

Though I think I am just not up to date, and don't have time to work shit out.

I am a busy gal, and don't have "smart" technology. I have a KB page, have done so forever (a long time).

I also have a FB page, I/we drive it daily, sort of, but have no clue how it actually works.

Where the hell are the driving instructions? Just as I think I have some sort of idea I DONT!

I read of people who are unfriended - how do you do that?

How do you block this drivel from your feed? ( At least I know that word

)

I need a teenager in the house...

Perhaps I am just getting old

Click on the thingo with the other thingo and tick the spacebar with the leftmost kajiger

To unfollow (stop a certain person's drivel from getting in the feed) just mouseover their pic/name and click on the follow button I think.

To unfreind, I find a brick through the window usually does the trick; if not, put dog poo in the next one and light it on fire

The pity of this is...

I don't want to actually unfriend someone. I would have simply shit in their slippers if that was the case

On FB go to your friends list - in there you can defriend the arses. I have a clean out every now and then.

Oh and ask your teenager to check your FB privacy settings - you may be posting those boobie images for the whole world to see .......

The only boobie image of me is the one on our bedroom wall. Ask my other half how that happened LOL.

I don't have anymore teenagers, I am flailing about the interweb like a noob

tried FB long time ago.
i lasted 3 months.
couldn't see the point aside from snoopin' in other lives or, worst in my opinion, loosing entire afternoons to make sure others snoop in your.
and for this reason you have normally to bear pages and pages of adolescents' empty whines...
as a matter of fact it's messy to manage, so to put you in trouble if you want somehow to decide who to let see what.
google plus tried to suggest a solution, but still can't see the point of it.

after years the only social network i can barely cope with is twitter.
the 140 chars limitation cut away all the "i totally need someone to listen" morons, it has its kind of usefulness as i often learn news on twitter quicker than from press, and it's more straightlined when it comes to manage privacy and visibility.
just two ways: all public or all private and then i let each person in if i want.

donno, i think it could be an easier coast to approach...

Whenever I got a new phone I would pass it to one of the kids and say ''here, make this work''. They are all gone now but at least I know how to turn it on and off, yes I turn the bloody thing off.

I believe there are those out there who can't get by without their cell phone
