Re: What are your irl friends like on social media?

I only mostly see them via FB and they're pretty boring. No fandom activity really. I've even talked to a couple of them about it and my BFF says he finds it difficult to want to do fandom stuff even though he's a total Whedon fanboy. He just likes watching movies and tv or playing games, and talking to people he knows about it. He says he doesn't have a need to go online to find artwork or read fics or have online discussions with people. Most of my other friends seem to just be your everyday (stolen from Nostalgia Chick/Simpsons) "Joanne and Cleatus". They probably get tired of the way I treat FB since I mostly post fandomy memes and stuff.

One IRL friend who I don't talk to often anymore requested to follow me on Twitter and I had a mini freakout. I didn't want her reading my crazy fandom rants with my fandom friends so I've just ignored her request. Sorry friend...it's just...weird. That's why I have my Twitter on private.
