Dudeist on Facebook?

[hannahdude]

who uses it, like daily? i quit twice for two 6 month periods when the inanity of it grew too obvious, such as 40 people i dont even fucking remember are the only 'friends' who remembered my birthday! i'd rather have my b-day forgotten by those i know love me then remembered by a bunch of ameuturs i havent seen since 7th grade, right?
anyway, curious who amongst these forum dudes is also a regular there.

I use it here and there, lotta ins and outs of face book that drive me nuts, though. Like those lame ass games everyone invites you to. Can't abide face book games. But, I'll have to admit, there are some pretty cool people on face book. Sometimes you eat the face book, and sometimes, whal, face books eats you!

Yeah, I use it (but I'd rather not) as an ex-pat Brit I use it to keep in touch with family. I don't play the games or utilize any of the apps - I keep it pretty basic.

I use it to keep in touch with my friends all over the world....I was a travelling dude for many years and therefore most of my close are abroad...don't play games...other than poking my friends wives....hey they poked me first!  lol

Face book games are kinda lame, never do those, barely use it at all, but it is good for keeping in touch with distant friends and family. Probably should check mine, been a couple of weeks.

Looking forward to the rug being unrolled, that'll be my new home when it's ready.

Cheers dudes, and DB, your wisdom is right on mang, see ya at leagues.

I use facebook to keep in touch with my friends and dudefriends and that's really cool, i don't like play games, in fact i was sick with the Mafia wars invitations.
But something that i love are the Dudeist Sacraments on facebook.

huh, my facebook sounds like fb lighjt, i dont see any games, or any app's, i dont even  know what an app is im happy to say, i just got my 60-odd friends i check in on, and thats it. maybe it has to do with your settings, all i know is i dont have any of that invasive crap and no one invites me to play on their fucking farms.

I'm on fb often enough... I've used it like a telephone to contact friends and see what they're doing or if they'd like to meet up.  I don't have hardly any friends I don't know personally, so my friend count is relatively small.  I find it a useful tool.

Facebook sucks your soul away.

I log on as little as possible because once I'm on I get distracted by all the pretty lights then find and hour or two has been stolen from me (again).

[Caesar dude]

There are pretty lights? 

[hannahdude]

meekon, you silly old thing, so easily distracted, ay? i find that hard to believe.

[hannahdude]

But don't you feel that some what trivialises things?

I spend a lot of time on this forum discussing how we're not catholics and then there are these "Dudeist Sacraments".

Perhaps it's just me but I would quiet like to be able to say I'm a Dudeist without certain members of my family looking towards the ceiling and muttering "What religion is he this week?"

I do understand that there is the element of fun involved, I just look at the Facebook site and despair.

Ok, if we strip away all the bs, what are the very basis "tenets" of Dudeism?
Abiding and saying Fuck it when it looks like it is going to get too complicated maybe?
Being lazy and not giving a fuck what anyone else things?
