On: Things that I think will be important in the next decade

[jedberg]

Hah. Like that would ever happen.

I have a friend who refuses to use Facebook. About twice a year I remember to send her updates.

Then when I see her I have to go over all the updates everyone else already saw on Facebook. I literally pull out my phone and show her my feed.

It’s really frustrating and inefficient. I only do it because she’s a really good friend.

Yeesh. I'm glad my friends don't regard me this way. IMHO, your comment is a perfect example of why one should quit Facebook.

They said they are willing to put effort in for their friend. What is wrong with that?

[root_axis → mewpmewp2]

The fact that they regard their friend's lack of Facebook use as a frustrating chore that requires effort.

You can internally think doing something is frustrating, but the more frustrating things you are willing to do for the friendship the more it shows you value that friendship. And it does require effort, there is no argument about that.

Oh no. You have to talk to your friends and give them personal accounts of your experiences! What a travesty.
