17. That's what's happened to me...
I have a ton of cousins I've never even met who contacted me first to be friends. OK, fine. I confirmed them as friends and then relatives.

the only people I really interact with are people I know from another group, and some of my closer relatives and a few friends from High School days (39 years ago).

I think some people do add friends as sort of a status symbol thing. "Look how POPULAR I am!!!!"

I'm sort of considering putting them on "hide" since there's really very minimal contact (I've replied to their stuff but they hardly ever reply to mine), and quite honestly, I really am NOT interested in what kind of sandwich they just had, how many stinkin' pickles were on it, and the brand of mustard they used. I mean, not even from my closest friends and relatives, never mind people I hardly even know.

That's the one complaint I have about Facebook, which a few other people here mentioned as well...

all the absolutely trivial shit people post about every second of their days.


oy.... :eyes:
