    Anyone who "checks in" anywhere is a self-absorbed loser. Period. No one gives a fuck where you are every given moment of the day. No one. Unless you have a stalker, and "checking in" simply gives that asshole a GPS system to follow you. One friend went to Disney this summer and "checked in" on every fucking ride at the park. I was rooting for someone "check in" at his house and burlgarize it.

    Blows my mind any putz would think his friends care what he just had for dinner.
    You want to eat? Work out? Go to the bar? Have sex? Cook dinner? Drop a deuce?
    Do it for God's sakes and leave me the eff out of it.

    Amen.

    One friend of mine "checks in" to McDonald's, Wal-Mart and other lowbrow places. At first I thought he was mocking the entire concept, but I don't think he's that witty.

    Dude, you get points for that shit. I check in at four different places on my drive to work when I take I-75. :D

    That article missed one kind of person that I think everyone on Facebook knows at least one of: 35-year-old-guy/girl whose posts come across as if they were posted by a 22-year-old. I know two of those kind of people; they're both cousins who just don't get it, even after being married and having kids.

    Sample post: "Going out with my girlz 2night to get my gin-n-juice on!" (Except that I know she doesn't make any money, so replace "gin-n-juice" with "Natty Light.")

    According to a friend who does it all the time, you get discounts at certain places.

    There are places that give discounts for multiple check-ins.

    I'm Facebook profanity guy.

    Once in a while, I get a note from someone saying, "Hey, my kids read my FB page, can you cut down on the swearing?"

    Fuck off.

    I once had a friend whose only FB posts were ones telling who/whatever he was pissed off at to fuck off. I didn't unfriend him because of the profanity. I unfriended him because it was all he ever said.
