“Friends”

According to stats, Malaysians on average has the highest number of friends on Facebook.
There are 3 types of people on Facebook;

1. People who most of the time thinks for awhile before accepting a friend request
2. People who accepts any friend request
3. People who adds practically everyone they see

You see, us Malaysians, we accept friend requests from anyone we know, from enemies to people who we know just by their looks and that sort off contributes to the high average number that we have. I currently have, not bragging but 847 friends on Facebook. I know at least 95% of the “friends” I’ve added, but probably only 20% of them are people that I actually talk to. So as you can see, it’s a trend for Malaysians to just accept whoever they sort-off-know.

Now, I’m probably thinking that I (and most people) fall into the first category as I have rejected and deleted some people off my Facebook profile before. Now, the people from the second category are usually the people who would just accept any friend request they receive. I don’t understand why would some people do that, but they are among us which does this. Honestly, why the heck, would I let 2000 people stalk me, look at my photos and look at my wall posts? I’m open to anything, but not THAT open till I let strangers see what I just liked or what photo I just got tagged in.

People who, to me are categorized in category two aren’t half as bad as the people who come under category three. Like this guy, named A (I shall not reveal his name), has 1268 friends on his Facebook, and by the looks of it, most of the things he comments on are girl statuses and photos. So yeah, use Facebook as a girl stalking device, awesome, he’s certainly did what Zuckerberg started out before he created Facebook

Then there’s B, he goes to other people’s Facebook profile (including mine), clicks on the list of friends and starts sending friend requests to everyone in the list. Now that’s really scary, I mean, seriously, invading my friends list just to claim you’ve got 2688 friends on Facebook? I'm probably thinking that B doesn't know half of the people he randomly adds. B, doesn't really have friends in real life, so yeah, explains a lot.

I’m not jealous at the amount of Facebook "friends", cause I know that I’ve got real friends. So yeah, this, in my opinion are the types of people that you might find on Facebook. I’m not typing this to change their minds on how they should use Facebook properly, this is just a public service announcement. If you fall under category 2 and 3 (especially category 3), I’m sorry if I’ve hurt your feelings, cause that’s how I see things.

To A, if you want a girlfriend, go out there and get one, don’t just sit in front of the computer, look at girls and start to masturbate to yourself (sorry female readers, that’s the truth). And to B, if you stopped being such a pain in the neck, maybe people would come to like you a little bit more. If you could put a little change in your life, why not do it? It's certainly better than staring at Facebook the whole day, just to see who you're next prey is or who you might want to randomly add.

This is not a rant or complain, this is just how things really are for Malaysians on Facebook.
