Facebook nuclear button

[Big Blue Plymouth]

I once made the mistake of signing up to Facebook. To be honest, I connected with a fair few people but deactivated my account when I decided the whole Facebook thing is for people to show off how great their lives are.

Periodically I unwittingly reactivate it. I did this the other day when I signed into some site with my email address. Somehow, it associated this address with my supposedly dormant Facebook account and all of a sudden I'm snowed under with fecking status updates from people I haven't seen in 20 years.

So, can anyone please tell me how I can get FB to feck off forever without getting a new email?

If you join too many facebook groups on gladiators and radiator bleeding, it will happen. Leave those groups.

Why not delete your facebook account?

Or defriend the people you don't like?

Ah, so you can ask them to permanently delete the account.

That's the way to go then.

How do I delete all record of my visits to NLyUK?

Just Unfollow people/groups and you won't get status updates.

Social media is a blinkin pain indeed.

I deleted my WhatsApp account recently because so many people kept adding me to groups - "let's go on holiday", "Friday night dinner", "My family group", "Photos from last week's wedding", "Look at ME Look at ME!!" .... zzzzzzzzzz - it was bloody annoying, even when I had all the groups on Silent. So I deleted it and everyone thinks I'm either depressed or about to run away from my life/wife or something. As if suddenly WhatsApp (or any social media for that matter) is now so critical to one's existence that if you don't use it then there must be something wrong with you.

Amazing how much time I've won back from not being involved on WhatsApp any more.

Rant over.

Is the CUK facebook photo page still going?

It's a feature of the new dash cam I recommended.
