Facebook Has Me By The Balls

Even if you don’t physically have any, they still have you by them figuratively…because everyone you know is on Facebook.My Wife, Daughter, Mum, Dad, Brother and Uncle (both Phil and Tom Cobbly) are on Facebook.
We pissed and moaned about what they have changed and threatened to use Google + instead, but the truth is that is has taken us a very long time to connect with all those people in our social network and we aren’t going to give that up at the drop of a hat. Or a dumb ass “most popular update feed”.
That is how they have me by the balls – it took me a long time and some concerted effort to find my high school friend who got shit-faced at the best concert I’d ever been to (at that point in my young life) or the wonderful ladies I floated around the Caribbean with 24/7 for a while in the 80’s. I’m not going to cut off my nose to spite my face.
Facebook obviously doesn’t have customer experience test marketing groups – they don’t need them, because they don’t care if you like what they have done to their site. They have you by the balls…
