Back in my days, Facebook was useful for finding parties/events around you

Feel old yet? 🥴
SW-User
Back in my days, Facebook was great for stalking the cute English guy I met in Paros in 2009. Don't know about old but definitely- always have been and always will be - desperate🤡
Back in my days, the creator of facebook wasn't even born yet.
Yea, now I feel old.

@TheSentinel I'm pretty sure the CIA precedes you 😜 </conspiracy>

I didn't get internet until 2010 😔

@Fishy A few jerks and low self esteem shouldn't impact how you see yourself that much 😔

@Elessar looking back at my actions, I think a lot of what they said was warranted to some degree 😂

I was kinda really straightforward in an immature way back then 😂

@Fishy More than someone would certainly appreciate the honesty and directness

When I was your age Facebook wasn’t a big thing yet, eBay was still in it’s prime, most cell phones couldn’t access the internet, and Amazon was just an online book store. 😅

@Zaphod42 FB took off later here, I remember it had a grey bar on the bottom 😅 99% it's population were teenagers and at most early-20ers. It went to sh*t the moment the 50+ got on it to "track" their kids and, ironically, become themselves the victims of internet scams. Such as populist politics 😅
omgg my friends still use it for shit like that,well my friends sister whos in her 30s anyway when she was organising her bridal party and baby shower ahahah

@PepsiColaP Not the kind of parties I was thinking of, but surprised to hear the feature is still alive 😅

I remember when people were trolling with the events and creating some funny ones lol

@HannibalAteMeOut There were people out there who would improvise parties on goddamn agricultural fields(!), with improvised DJ-set and bar; just publicizing the [i]event[/i] on FB roughly one week in advance got them an easy 300-400 people pet party. €5 entry fee and unlimited free drinks until all the booze was over. 2 out of 3 of those parties would end with the police asking everyone to leave, but they were fun nonetheless lol

@Elessar of course the cops would come to spoil the fun
Elessar · 26-30, M
@HannibalAteMeOut "Hey this is just my friends having fun on my property. Yes, I have a lot of friends"

They didn't buy it 😪

I used it to stalk my ex, 3 years ago 👀 so no I don't feel old
Coppercoil · M
Myspace bro.. get with it.. it retro now. Use it to great effect.
Classified · M
I never had an account there, so I'm immune to this. 😋
I don’t remember any of that 🥺😞😔

I remember MySpace.
THAT makes you feel old.
Elessar · 26-30, M
@basilfawlty89 I remember that too, but it wasn't big over here. Netlog and MSN (if comparable) on the other hand...
