Response:
I agree with Ian Daly that social networking is pointless and ridiculous. I don't see the point of having so many friends if none of them are going to be there for you nor do they pay for your bills. I dislike it with a passion when people are constantly on their phone either checking their social network or playing games, especially when it's during unnecessary times like dinner or family time. At some point I start wishing certain stuff didn't exist. Having an addiction to the social network or the crave to be popular is a no no, especially when you should be working or paying attention to your love ones. It's extremely sad to see how people would do anything or say type anything just to get attention from those they barley even know. Like is it worth that like or that comment when your face is constantly glued to a screen?
