I've been eating low carb for the last couple months, but had folks in a Facebook group tell me Keto is better. I'm sure eating less than 20 carbs a day works for some people (one slice of bread is 16 carbs!), it was impossible for me. I don't think it's a healthy way to eat either. Low carb is hard enough for me.

I agree that there's always been trolls and bullies, but there are also people who say crazy stuff and then lose their minds when they get called out on it. It's one reason the current events board gets heated sometimes. If someone is saying stuff about gender, sexual orientation, or race in a way that demeans those people, I'll call that shit out and I don't care if I hurt someone's feelings. And I would, and have, done it on Facebook. I think that most of the people here are pretty cool and level-headed. To make a post like this, I can't help but wonder who hurt your feelings here. The only thing that really bugs me is when someone is genuinely struggling and they get blamed and demeaned for their troubles. Everything else, well, don't write it if you can't take a little criticism.

I’m a polite person. For as long as o can remember people have commented on my good manners... being one of the few kids in my school who ALWAYS said please and thank you has often gotten me extra snacks and treats from the cafeteria staff. I have no idea how I turned out this way after spending time with my mom now that I’m a parent. She is so freaking rude. Never says please, hardly says thank you, bosses everyone around, interrupts everyone who talks to her, makes awful and usually racist generalizations about people and places (according to her the entire state of Texas are a bunch of red necks because her one friend moved there and now “spouts hate” on Facebook... coming from the woman who didn’t like the idea that the Filipino construction workers had nicer cars than her) I mean, I had my dad to help drill these habits into my head, but I only saw him weekends and holidays

My facebook must be so different from some of yours. The main things I see on there that make me unhappy are political or religious posts. Invariably posted by family members that I rarely see IRL, and don't want to unfollow or unfriend. That's about it. Most of the stuff I see on my facebook are pictures of my friends and their kids and fun stuff that they're doing. Might make me a little jealous sometimes (like- wish I could have gone with them) but all in all facebook makes me happy. I've unfollowed or unfriended almost all of the right-wing nut jobs who were making me unhappy with their 'MAGA' bullshit and 'Obama's gonna take my assault rifle that I NEEEED to kill coyotes on my property!' ('But actually, have never used except to blow up beer bottles.') and all the Jesus posts. Like 'Share this post or you hate Jesus and want all puppies to die!!!' ..lol. Nope. Buh-bye.

Anonymous sites such as this one attract trolls and bullies. There are few who genuinely want to confess and chat but can't without being chastised. This is where all of the jealous and bitter hags with no dignity go to rip others apart for being less than perfect even though they themselves are far from it. They put others down to make themselves feel better about their sad lives. I bet my life that if the only way to chat/confess on here was to log in with Facebook you wouldn't talk to people like you do. Because if all of your friends and family saw it, they'd be so disgusted with how you treat and talk to others. You act like you're a bunch of badass bitches but you're nothing but cowards behind a keyboard because you'd be too scared to say these things to someone to their face. With that said, I'm done with this site. Let all the banshees run this site, it'll die just like Truu did.

The low carb thing is stressing me out! I've eaten low carb for a month, and commented in a Facebook group I'm in that I hadn't lost the weight I thought I should. I got 322 cmoments telling me what I'm doing wrong. Of course I also had six people send me private messages about TruVision, Plexus, two things I've never heard of, and one wants to sell me CBD oil. I left the group and am taking a break from what appears to be a radical bunch of people.

Great. Now I know shit. Fuck fuck. It's a wildland fire, and it's big (for here, we're not California after all), and it's headed toward where we live, and there are no access roads to even get to it. How did I learn this? Fucking facebook! One of the other wives posted this. HER husband got her a radio! Jesus! The upside? I do not smell smoke outside at all. Maybe they got it contained. Waiting for a message back from facebook gal. Stressing.

Sorry guys, the Dependa post is about someone on facebook. It's like every week or so she posts about how much she isn't a dependa. I don't know if she's trying to convince herself, or others....or both. But since she has to keep pointing it out, she's more than likely one. She's a very insecure person I used to be irl friends with, but she is batshit insane. She goes postal on people for nothing. She's allowed to hang all over her guy friends, but if he so much as had a female friend on FB from high school she goes off on him, publicly, claiming that he's cheating and she's divorcing him. Then 2 days later she talks about having the best DH ever and she's so in love with him. It's a cycle. Her military ex left her for it, and this DH will too. They haven't been together long, moved in and married quickly. Can't go without that tricare ;)

I'd be okay with no one ever posting a single selfie ever again on Facebook. I just do not really care to see everyone's faces in a bunch of various poses. It's one trend that started and will never go away though.

People over 50 should not post selfies on Facebook. Nobody wants to see your double chin and wrinkles.
