@ralen_jor I'm glad to say that I will be slowly removing myself from not only META-based socials but also most Centralised ones as been enjoying the Fediverse so much better and I much prefer if people just message me through here.
not american, so i actually did think olive garden was fancy ?
It would make Italians weep
I never really understand this comment about Olive Garden. Unless you live under a rock, you don't go to Olive Garden for authentic Italian food. You go there for cheap, filling food, and a metric fuckton of breadsticks.
I had to visit it when I was in US. I'm a European and thought the tomato/shrimp/cream carbonara was hilarious. No need to go again.
Where are you from that they think this?
Usually most chain restaurants are not considered fancy. Though there are some classier chains that people might consider fancy. Olive Garden is not one of them.
If they don't have any other Italian options, Olive Garden might be ok. Also, fast food brands can vary a lot around world.
That being said, Olive Garden is pretty mid.
australia. i rarely go to chains or restaurants. i only know the name from the internet
Okay, but damn. This is 9 years ago. Still good as new. Damn.
I have essentially stopped using it for the last few years. Last time I used it was months ago and that was for Facebook Marketplace.
Same here, the only reason I use Facebook is because of the Marketplace. Never post a comment, like or whatever...
For a while I would like a few posts and reply to the usual handful of birthday wishes but I stopped doing that. I’ll just hit up my friends and family directly.
I'm basically waiting for my grandparents to die so I can delete it
My Facebook is up strictly for the marketplace. I haven't posted, liked, or looked at anything in years. I do use it to buy and sell stuff though. I find I have more success with the Facebook marketplace than with Kijiji, for both buying and selling.
This is an accurate representation of my Facebook until I removed anyone who wasn't an actual friend. I only rarely check it, anyway, so I don't want to see a bunch of people I don't care about spouting nonsense when I do look.
How do I delete that which I have never started? If someone really needs to talk to me and I care enough to let them, they already know my number. Worked in the 90s, and guess what? It still works now.
Much better for your mental health this way too.
I only use the marketplace now, haven't scrolled through Facebook proper in years.
Every once in a while I hop in, then I hop right the eff back out again.
Deleted it permanently (waited until after the reactivation period and tried to log back in just to make sure it was completely gone) 3 years ago. Never going back to that cesspool.
Unless you’re in the EU, your data is unfortunately still there. You just can’t access it.
I thought Applebee's was the fancy restaurant, as least according to song.
Like and share.
The idea of deleting facebook seems goofy to me. Just don't go on it. Its just a way to communicate with folks I know if I can't get in touch with them otherwsie and likewise. If they chat me it will email me and let me know and then I go on to see what they need. Used it just the other day to checkin on an old workmate when a tornado came close to where he lives.
Hey it’s me! Your high school friend who never addressed their insecurities and made their entire life about how they don’t live somewhere and what restaurants they eat at.
Anyway, here’s an article about how I perceive everything as racist so I can continue feeling superior to everyone
I like this. Let me trade all the information I can provide about myself for more of it. It's going to be free right?
