7 things that might just get us to give up Facebook

 

Check these out, too...

We’re sure you’ve heard by now about the darlin’ whose dad paid her to stay off Facebook for the rest of the semester. That story got us thinking, though…what would get us to give up one of our favorite social media sites?

 

A puppy

Come on, we’ve been begging for ages!

 

A part in the school play

‘Cause we’d probs be too busy memorizing lines and Instagraming behind-the-scenes pics

 

A boyfriend

We wouldn’t need to be one of those couples who posts lovey dovey messages on each other’s walls 24/7…right?

 

A seriously well-paying babysitting gig

Rollin’ in the dough (and chasing after a six-year-old) is way better than cruising through our Newsfeed

 

Camp

Because those crazy counselors have pretty much never heard of such a thing as a social life back home

 

One more sponsored or recommended post popping up in our feed

Enough is enough, Facebook! We’re warning you…

 

However much money our current coveted possession costs

OK, so maybe we can be bought—but only sometimes!

 

What would get you to give up Facebook? Tell us in the comments, cuties!

I don't think social media is something to spend a lot of time on but I think it is what you make it. I have a Facebook but you can adjust your privacy settings and people only know everything about you if you let them. I don't post small details of my life, so people don't know them.

I dont hate facebook but I love Pinterest and Tumblr.

Instagram is great too but with Pinterest and Tumblr I love searching and looking at the pictures of hot guys on there. There are so many of them like pages and pages of them, plus everyone isnt into what you are doing.

I hate Facebook! Tumblr and Instagram are so much more entertaining than endlessly scrolling through pointless drama.

i don't have a facebook and i definitly dont want one. I like my privacy and dont need people seeing or hearing bout my every move in life. But if i did have one and i actually loved it i would want an iPhone 4s because right now i have an iphone 3gs. i love it but itsl OLD. i also saved up enough money for it.
