As above, really.

When I deleted mine it asked if I perhaps would consider to just deactivate it in stead.

That was a few years ago mind you, so might possibly have changed.

The whole talking to real friends/people on the internet is a back idea imo

I find the worst offenders are people who before facebook came along would of considered using the internet/computer to talk to other people "geeky or sad"

But now its deemed socially cool, the same people come online and makes idiots of themselves as they don't know how to behave, they are like excited kids going to the pub for the first time. Then you slowly see the real side of those people and are reminded why you never really liked them to begin with.

Very well said, a prime example.. When I went to Magaluf in 2005 I briefly went on the computers in the hotel lobby to checkup my email (pre Facebook area) and got abused by everyone, why would I be going on the Internet on holiday? Went on another lads holiday in 2008 and practically the whole lobby was full of people sitting on Facebook.
These type of people may be in their mid twenties but act like teenagers on the Internet due to being introduced to it later.

It's Hilarious, as you said.. Certainly brings out people's true colours.
