Sometimes, I get a wild hair and I want to purge, but I also don't want to hurt anyones feelings! And besides, it can feel shitty (or not) when people use Social Media as a weapon to "unfriend" others for one reason or another.

Hi June
and pardon the snips...
My FB account is mostly family, although there are a few friends on there as well. I have a ton of young cousins...and while I certainly don't want to unfriend them I am also not terribly interested in the latest middle school spat or 12,000 posts a week they make about things that I don't even understand
I discovered a wonderful feature...you can click on one of those annoying posts, then hover over to the right (you can tell I'm highly technical...sorry) and click on Hide. It will ask if you want to hide the application or the person. I hide all those pesky farmtown, cafe world, etc. applications completely....and also all the updates from my little cousins.
I can still get messages, go to their page, peek at pics, etc. ....but I get to stay out of the lunchroom wars.
