This guy won't ... This guy won't stop? talking about how awesome all his competitors products are. Let's hear about why your product is better? Enough of this fluff, fake ass bulls**t ass kissing.
Thanks Anybeat, now we all know that we should just stick to Facebook and Google Plus since they are so impressive and awesome! Thanks for saving everyone the time of checking out another s**tty social network... or community site.
If you don't like ... If you don't like Facebook, don't use it.? Saying Facebook makes us overshare information is ridiculous. Quick b***hing and stop using it.
