Facebook: The Bucket List of DO and DON'T


Now, the book has its face;

The face of thousand words,
The world of many groups,
They poked, they stalked,
They offered a privacy with no key,
You can hate, you can like,
That's the blue power of your thumb sign.

That's the place for the unseen,
The adversary is hiding,
Relationship is complicating,
They offered you a space to speak,
You can teach, you can preach,
You can show whatever you want,
That's the blue power of your thumb sign.

At Youtube, HigaNiga (the famous Youtuber) made a video named as "Movie in Minutes-Facebook the Movie", showing  the usual things that happened in Facebook (I guess you know about it very well so I don't have to say much). Then, it becomes the idea how the world of Facebook becomes a bit scary. There's a few reason how it can be scary for you, or for me. Facebook has its own dark side too, and you're part of it.



LIKE; that is the usual sign to show you like the status or uploaded items from your fella. It shows you how many people did follow your news. But the problem is, some people didn't notice they like something that they shouldn't. For examples, 'My grandma passed away this morning'- you shouldn't like this. Comments are much better to console the unfortunate, why must like? Besides, there are something which is not necessary to like, for examples 'off to sewer, looking for rats'- is that something you really like, are you sure? For the liker, be wise next time. And for like-hunters, make some good status so your 'like' collection worth to be proud of.


POKERS; this is the other way to tease people-poke them anytime you want. But remember, not everyone like to receive the poke, especially from someone they didn't know. If you know them well, just add them as your friend- stop poking people and look silly. And remember, just poke people who keep poking you so both sides will understand how annoying that is.



PRIVACY; that's the problem in Facebook especially through your photos. Anyone can rummage your place and stealing, claiming something they don't deserve to have or know. It happens that we didn't realize we made everything in  'public'. Next time, try to change it  as 'friends' or 'myself'. It's worth to be careful because it's hard to set the privacy setting to normal when you did wrong.

STALKER; well, it happens a lot even not from your fans because human born with curiosity.  Whenever they have the chances, they will stalk you and try to know you better. But, not all stalkers are nice. Beware, they might be super annoying and dangerous.

CAM-WHORE; that's the truth. Whatever occasion that happens to you, you will turn to be as whore but not the usual one. Basically, cam-whores took pictures close to their face, making few angles of cuteness, bloating their cheeks and act like bizarre.  I tell you, not everyone look cute or awesome in cam-whoring. Some of it look really sucks. But they thought that they're celebrity. Ow, come one. Please be cautious, okay..cam-whores?

STATUS; that's the first one you did when you lingered inside Facebook. You might say 'FB is boring, I wanna quit someday' but next day 'oh yesterday I have fun with my BFF'. Then, another day, 'Oh I really wanna quit from this' then it happens you came back with thousand words. Please, don't do that. Please don't make yourself look so lame. Of course, Facebook asked you 'What's on your mind?' but it doesn't mean you have to tell everything, including the size of your shit or the smell of your fart. Have a manner, your friend is watching over you. Cheap attention is really suck.


FARMVILLE; is one of favourite activities for Facebookers. 'The farmer' might clutching their pillows, just to say how intense to grow crops virtually and hurrah like a crazy when they got rich. Funny somehow, when being farmer at there make them proud but the real farmer out there is struggling to live and eat. It's okay to enjoy farming inside there, but please don't be addicted and wasting too much time with it. Please don't be crazy, the world and your family still needs you.

FRIENDS; that's the most exciting things in Facebook. You can seek old friends, new acquaintances from the whole world. The best thing is you can learn different languages, knowing their culture and taste of living. That's the great part. But the worse part, 5000 friends are impossible to stay in contact. Sometimes, you didn't know you're friend with them. So, check your friend list. Is it worth to keep friends who didn't know you well and you didn't know them well? Stick with people who know you, even the slightest one but at least, they still know you. And remember, there might be a chance for you to keep enemies in your friend list. Keep them away, don't let them know your stuff.

GROUPS; the place to join people with the same mind. It kinda cool 'cause you might found someone like you or someone that took your interest. With groups, it helps you to associate with larger communities with the same purpose and ideas. It might help you to improve knowledge and wise in words. But remember, be part of a good group. Good groups lead you to a good way.



HATERS; of course, haters gonna hate. Not everyone will like you and your status. It's okay for you to have haters. Haters are the motivator, it points out your weaknesses and you'll fix it. And haters will never quit, they just love killing you in virtual. So, try to be as wise as you can, or be as nonsense as you can if wise words doesn't work. Sometimes, it's fun to be nonsense with them. But don't stay nonsense all the time, you might turn into the real one next time.
RELATIONSHIP; it often changed according to situation- single to engaged, engaged to married, married to single, single to complicated but divorce never been said in there. For single, the best way to show your goodness is not saying your're single- it sounds like you're quite desperate. For people in engaged, stay with that, it's good. For married couple, don't pretend you're single. Look at your ring now, you're belong to someone else. And for the complicated one, try not to make yourself complicated. Some people might think that you're the trouble. Besides, it's good to say less about your relationship 'cause it's part of your privacy.
