Internet and Non Internet Friends

Read a blogpost "Internet Science Field Report: Kony Ruins Friendships on Know your meme and it has so much sense in it.

Below is an excerpt from it :
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

My Facebook friends can be divided into two groups: Internet and Non Internet. Internet friends are not necessarily people I have met via the internet, but rather people who work on the internet or engage in a more than casual relationship with internet culture. They understand that in some cases, a Hitler joke might be funny, and are able to spot a troll a mile away. By comparison, my Non Internet friends are normal people with day jobs who don’t know what Goatse is. They’ve probably never argued with someone about how to pronounce “GIF.”


My internet friends rarely, if ever, post anything internet culture-related on Facebook. No macros, no iterations, rarely a cute picture of a cat (unless it’s their own). More and more, however, my Non Internet friends are posting bits and pieces of internet culture, sometimes bits they’ve made themselves. Which is actually very exciting. For real. Kudos to them! I think it’s great to make something. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, I honestly believe UGC is the key to a better future. In this case of Facebook, it’s also really interesting. Interesting not only as a sign of internet and mainstream culture canoodling, but also as a possible cause for a growing internet culture over saturation, experienced by those who don’t want to consume funny pictures of cats every time they log into to see what their pals are up to.

Facebook: A Website For Complaining About Facebook

My theory is that my Internet Friends don’t post meme iterations on Facebook because it is simply not great at media sharing. There are other locations like Know Your Meme, Twitter and 4chan that are much better suited. Those Non Internet folks, though, they don’t have another outlet to share their media. Forums are terrifying, comment threads are where weirdos and deviants hang out, and WTF is a Reddit? And really, for the most part, they’re right, and so … off to Facebook it is.

The thing, though, is that we don’t all really have an agreed upon use of Facebook. Some people use it for self promotion, some people use it for conversation, some for messaging and some, yes, for media sharing. But we ALL use it; in that way Facebook has become kind of like email. It is the lowest common denominator of online public, peer interactions. It’s a thing you just … do. It’s a reflex. So when someones ideal use of FB doesn’t match up with yours, it gets a little complicated. You don’t have the Twitter-style escape hatch of a non-reciprocal follow relationship. You either hide them (which then raises the complicated social question of why you friended them in the first place) or if you want to make a point, you ruthlessly un-friend them.

Even though  the blogpost tl;dr, but there's too much win in it.
I do have internet friends and Non Internet friends on facebook
And most of the Non Internet friends consist of idiotic people.
Updating dumb bitch poses
and spamming 9gag repost as if they even know what memes are really is.

9gag WAS ok before it was infected by these Non internet a.k.a 9fag
9fag are THE worst!! A cancerous pandemic of fags.
and so as translated memes.

Id rather have debates  then seeing "OMG! My beybeiii bg iph0n3 4z!!! luv ew!! Muaxx!!" updates.
