I don't see the purpose in Facebook
I really have no desire for the world to know anything I do, or for any of the mongs I went to school with to get in contact again. All the people I want to contact are in my email address book, or on my phone, and that suits me just fine.

I did avoid going to a school reunion that was organised via Facebook.
Partly because I was utterly skint, but mostly because there wasn't really anyone going that I either remembered or wanted to get reacquainted with. I've had people sending friend requests who I used to go to school with and I have no fucking idea who they are.

Someone who beat the shit out of me when I was twelve added me a couple of weeks ago.
W. T. F?

a girl who regulalry beat me up at school tried to add me recently
was rather nice to reject her request, especially because she is so fucking thick she has requested friendship on 4 further occasions. and has been rejected each time.

haha
do people just add people for the sake of it? The same thing happened to my missus - people who made her life a misery in school recently added her or left comments or something.

I was of the opinion
that if he was enough of a cunt to duff me up then, I'm pretty sure I don't want to know him as an adult. He'd probably be all like 'Yeah, but I was a kid then, I'm grown up and married and I've got two kids now, I work for the emergency services and I'm a volunteer First Responder at the weekends' and I'd be all 'Yeah, but I'm totally satisfied that you've got really fat, your missus looks sweet but one of your kids looks like a shih-tzu.'

I haven't even bothered looking up any of the people I went to school with - none of them were particularly harsh to me (I think the fact I seemed not to care made them give up eventually), but I don't really want to talk to them
