Bhairitu:
 What really annoys me about these groups is 
 some twenty something telling me what I'm 
 supposed to do.

Probably what really annoys you is not having 
very many friends to share your story with,
whether on Facebook, Twitter, or anywhere else.

 What you're supposed to do is ignore them. :)

So, this is how you ignore them. :)

 As I've been doing.  FB I enjoy, Linkedin i have
 no interest in.  And even FB gets monotonous.
 There's really no substitute for good old-fashioned
 face-to-face.
 
We cannot see your face on FFL, Sal.

Apparently nearly 50% of Facebook users are over age 30.

  The Texas Juvenile system is the worst.  Replace it with work houses and

 Should they have a Reduced Minimum Wage in your opinion? The average Texan?

You have misunderstood Tom, he wants me to either be torn asunder or kill 
myself :-). According to Barry's prediction I should be long gone. Either way 
I condemn this gross misrepresentation of Tom. And now why can't I get past the

  A friend already tricked me into signing on to LinkedIn a few years ago
  under my own name and I'm not going to sign up under my handles.  I also
  have no interest in Facebook.  LinkedIn annoys me because there are two
  groups with the same name for the company I worked at and I know that
  I've gotten requests again from folks I worked with on one group and
  added because they joined the other.  What really annoys me about these
  groups is some twenty something telling me what I'm supposed to do.
 
 
 I got an invite from none other than our FFL Owner in Chief today.  For
 Linkedin.  I absolutely hate Linkedin and would love directions on how to
 delete my account.  It started off very innocently.  I accepted one person
 as a connection.  Then every once in a while one or two more.   Now I'm
 receiving requests to connect to cartush merchants in the Luxor, Egypt suuk
 and being told the joyous news that I'm connected, a couple thousand times
 removed, to a trany who owns an escort service in Kazakhstan.


Here -

Hope you are torn asunder from Linkedin or you kill your painful Linkedin 
profile quickly.

Love the cross on the roof of the execution facility.

And the crosses on the graves in the prison cemetery
where executed prisoners are buried don't have their
names on them, just their prison numbers.

I guess you could make a case for that on the basis of
privacy, but it just seems like the ultimate indignity.
